Myanmar crisis exposes ASEAN's need for permanent diplomacy
Original: Myanmar shows why ASEAN needs permanent crisis diplomacy
Commentary argues Myanmar's ongoing crisis demonstrates that ASEAN needs a permanent crisis diplomacy mechanism rather than ad hoc responses by rotating chairmanships. Since the 2021 military coup, the bloc's Five-Point Consensus has produced little visible progress, and shifting leadership each year has weakened continuity. The piece suggests a standing diplomatic structure could give ASEAN more consistent leverage in engaging Myanmar's military government and neighbouring states.
Why now: Continued violence and stalled peace efforts in Myanmar are renewing debate over ASEAN's capacity to resolve regional crises.
