The Five Point Consensus , which continues to be the primary strategy for addressing the situation in Myanmar, was discussed by the ministers during their initial meeting. He said the role of Asean's special envoy to Myanmar, which is now Indonesia's turn, also needs to be continued to avoid problems arising when there is a change of Asean chairman.
Zambry also delivered a report on Malaysia's position as the coordinating country responsible for organising the Asean-Canada Summit in September and the Asean-GCC in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia in October. "This mechanism has also engaged with various parties including Interpol and Aseanapol to help raise public awareness," he said.
