Jakarta (ANTARA) – Human rights organization members of the Asian Forum for Human Rights and Development (FORUM-ASIA) on Wednesday (May 3) urged the Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN) to move beyond the Five-Point Consensus (5PC) to address the Myanmar crisis. The forum sent an open letter to ASEAN leaders ahead of the upcoming 42nd ASEAN Summit on May 911, 2023. The letter was signed by 25 human rights organizations from Asia. “We urge ASEAN leaders to immediately move away from the ASEAN Five-Point Consensus and create a more robust and tangible action to stop the military junta’s violence and atrocity crimes,” it said in a statement posted on the Progressive Voice Myanmar’s website. It also urged ASEAN to immediately organize a constructive and inclusive dialogue with all relevant stakeholders and parties, including the National Unity Government of Myanmar (NUG) as the democratically-elected government, representatives of Ethnic Resistance Organizations (EROs), and Myanmar’s civil society groups. It callson ASEAN to work closely with the United Nations, particularly the Security Council and the Secretary-General, in the effort to resolve the crisis in Myanmar. Those organizations have expressed grave concern over the lack of tangible action from ASEAN in ending the crisis in Myanmar. In April 2021, ASEAN and Senior General Min Aung Hlaing agreed to the Five-Point Consensus as a peace plan for addressing Myanmar’s crisis. The consensus called for an immediate end to violence; holding of dialogue among all parties; the appointment of a special envoy; allowing humanitarian assistance from the ASEAN; and permitting an ASEAN special envoy to visit Myanmar to meet with all parties. However, two years since its adoption, the Myanmar military junta has disregarded the peace plan. The human rights organizations said that ASEAN has failed not only in holding the Myanmar junta to account for its commitment to the consensus, but also in uniting its efforts and leadership for promoting peace, stability, and prosperity in the region. The junta has increasingly used air strikes as a strategy to cause significant damage and civilian casualties on the ground, the statement noted. The military junta carried out 734 air strikes between February 2021 and January 2023, which resulted in 356 civilian deaths, it added. The human rights organizations expressed the hope that ASEAN will immediately appoint a special envoy to Myanmar and set up a clear mandate. The role of the special envoy must be full-time, lasting more than one year, and they must be accountable to ASEAN leaders and foreign ministers instead of the incumbent ASEAN chair, they said. “We sincerely hope that these concrete actions, which are aligned with peoples’ voices from the ground, will be heard and implemented in the upcoming summit to show ASEAN’s accountability, credibility, and effectiveness,” the statement said. baca-jugaRelated news: Building trust important in Myanmar to support peace: Marsudi Related news: European Union supports ASEAN to overcome Myanmar crisis

We want to implement the system, but we will consider Bali’s support capacity to determine the exact quota Badung, Bali (ANTARA) – Bali Governor I Wayan Koster said his side would discuss tourism issues caused by foreign tourists flouting local regulations and its solutions at a seminar on Bali’s future development.”(Errant tourists) will be one issue discussed at the Bali of the future (seminar) for the next 100 years,” Koster stated here, Thursday. Former president Megawati Sukarnoputri and other government and ministry officials would partake in the “Direction of the Future Bali Development” seminar to deliberate issues in Bali, he noted. One of the solutions proposed by his side to address the tourism issue is introducing a quota system for foreign tourists for the next 100 years, the governor remarked, adding that the quota system will relieve Bali from the pressures of mass tourism. He explained that the proposed quota system aims to reduce the risk of foreign tourists violating local laws, for instance, by working or opening a business while holding a tourist visa, which is illegal by Indonesian law, after running out of money in Bali. “If we do nothing (on this issue), we are afraid more stingy tourists will arrive. (Because they have no money), they will eat only cheap foods and ride only motorbikes — while violating laws. And in the end, they plunder ATMs (out of desperation),” Koster stated. The governor said comprehensive solutions must be conceived to address locals’ concerns about erratic foreign tourists’ behavior that disrupt their lives. The provincial authority will deliberate the proposed quota system with local tourism associations, including the Indonesian Hotel and Restaurant Association (PHRI), and relevant stakeholders, he affirmed. “We want to implement the system, but we will consider Bali’s support capacity to determine the exact quota,” Koster stated. baca-jugaRelated news: Not too late to handle tourists working illegally in Bali: KadinRelated news: No impact of tightening of tourist rules on arrivals: OfficialRelated news: MPR seeks tourist task force for Bali
