MANILA – The leaders of the Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN) member states are set to review the implementation of the core ASEAN peace plan on the Myanmar situation when they convene the 49th ASEAN Summit and Related Meetings this weekend, the Department of Foreign Affairs (DFA) said on Friday.

“We have indicated in previous engagements that this summit in particular will deal with the ASEAN leaders’ review and decision on the implementation of the Five-Point Consensus. So definitely, that's part of the agenda of the ASEAN leaders for this summit,” he said in a press conference at the International Media Center in Pasay City.

In 2021, the ASEAN leaders limited Myanmar’s participation in ASEAN meetings to non-political representatives after the military seized power in the same year.

Thai Foreign Minister Sihasak Phuangketkeow was earlier quoted as saying by Agence France-Presse that there is currently a “desire on the part of Myanmar to engage, to return to ASEAN.”
