Indonesia calls for a dialogue approach over the political situation in Myanmar

Indonesia asked the involved parties in the current political situation in Myanmar to control and call for a dialogue approach, after military coup and the detention of civilian government leaders. The Indonesian Ministry of Foreign Affairs in an official statement on Monday (1/2) stated that Indonesia urged all parties in Myanmar to control and prioritize a dialogue in finding out a solution from the various challenges and problems so that the situation is not getting worse.

As reported by Reuters.com, the military arrested Myanmar leader, Aung San Suu Kyi, President Win Myint and a number of other political leaders from the National League for Democracy (NLD) party in the raid on Monday. The military authority announced that the governmental power has been transferred to the Chief of the armed forces, Senior General Min Aung Hlaing, along with the detention of political figures that was said as a response over last year's election fraud.

Moreover, Indonesia also expressed deep concern over the political developments in Myanmar and underlined that the disputes related to the results of the general election can be overcome by the available legal mechanisms. Besides, Indonesia appealed to Myanmar to implement the principles of the ASEAN Charter, including being committed to laws and running good governance based on democracy and constitution.
