The Association ​of Southeast Asian ‌Nations (ASEAN) has agreed to ​continue its “constructive ​and principled engagement” ⁠with Myanmar, ​Philippine President ​Ferdinand Marcos Jr said at the 49th ASEAN Summit on Sunday.

Marcos, ​chairing ​the annual ASEAN summit ‌in ⁠Manila, said he hoped the regional bloc ​could ​advance ⁠the implementation of ​its Five-Point Consensus, which is its ​peace ⁠plan for Myanmar developed in April 2021–two months after a military coup led by Senior General Min Aung Hlaing against Aung San Suu Kyi’s National League for Democracy (NLD) government.
