Recommendations
To ASEAN
1. We call upon the international community and the Association of
Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN) to politically isolate the military
council by refusing to invite their representatives to international
summits and dialogues, thereby denying them any claim to legitimacy.
2. Cease inviting all junta representatives (political and non‑political) to
ASEAN meetings, summits, and mechanisms.
3. Maintain and strengthen the exclusion of the junta from ASEAN
processes until violence stops and democratic transition begins.
4. Cease clinging to the failed Five-Point Consensus. Instead, it must
adopt a new, effective strategy that includes engagement with all key
stakeholders/representatives.
To the International Community and the United Nations
1. Take effective action through judicial mechanisms against those
responsible for war crimes, including perpetrators of attacks on civilians
in Kawng Ja Village, Bhamo Township.
2. Urgently implement coordinated and effective targeted sanctions to cut
off supply chains of aviation fuel and munitions used in attacks against
civilians.
3. UN member states exercise “Universal Jurisdiction” within their
national legal frameworks to initiate legal proceedings and issue arrest
warrants for Myanmar military generals responsible for war crimes.
4. Publicly acknowledge that the Myanmar military is responsible for
widespread and systematic crimes.
5. Support international accountability pathways, including cooperation
with UN mechanisms and evidence‑gathering bodies.
6. Reject any ASEAN initiatives that normalize impunity or treat the junta
as a legitimate stakeholder.
