On February 23, foreign media quoted three people familiar with the matter as saying that Indonesia is urging its Southeast Asian neighbors to agree on an action plan involving Myanmar. The plan will keep the Tatmadaw in line with its commitment to hold elections and have monitors in place to ensure that the elections are fair and inclusive.
According to Reuters Jakarta on February 22, Indonesia's proposal did not meet the public demands of Myanmar and some Western countries for the Myanmar army to immediately release democratically elected leader Aung San Suu Kyi and recognize that her party won last year.
The two Indonesians, who spoke on condition of anonymity, said a diplomatic-led solution must focus on preventing the incident and help the military deliver on its promise to hold new elections and hand over power to the winner.
According to the report, the ** person scoffed at the promise of the military ** to hold a new election, saying that the military ** should recognize the results of last year's election. Earlier, the Election Commission of the Union of Myanmar denied allegations of fraud in the November elections last year.
The UN Security Council has previously called on ASEAN to help mediate the crisis.
According to the report, according to the two people mentioned above and another person familiar with the matter, Indonesia's proposed plan also calls on ASEAN to facilitate dialogue between the Myanmar military and the Myanmar military.
Indonesia's proposal has received strong support from several ASEAN countries, but the diplomatic efforts that are still underway are challenging, the three people said.
