is here he travelled over to the thai capital here bangkok just earlier today and there will be talks these crisis talks crises talks with his counterpart thai counterpart and the prime minister of thailand prio to know cha that we know but we don't know if the indonesian foreign minister will also be partaking in those talks as well as you mentioned she was supposed to go over to the end mar today wednesday to have discussions there with her counterpart but pulled out at the last minute and that's probably because when you look at how that visit was framed it was to discuss with the government there the junks of the military government how they were going to make good on their promise to hold elections in the coming months that is something that does not sit well with the protesters because they still believe that their elected leadership who is now mostly in detention in the capital neighbor door that they need to be re-installed according to the protesters so that visit or the initiative the effort from the aussie on the block of regional

neighbors here effort to try to get things try to go down the path of a political solution to this crisis did not sit well with the protesters because they say that their elected leaders are the legitimate leaders of the nation and to hold another election is illegitimate and thus if they want over to have discussions about the new election that didn't sit well with the protesters at all nic yes of course the backdrop to all of this is the protests and what is the latest on the scale of. well particularly for that reason there is a group a large group in front of the internees an embassy in yemen gone because of what the foreign minister and the government of indonesia were saying before that that intended visit today that was canceled so they are there and some of the usual spots we've been seeing over the last 3 weeks of this protest movement in yangon and in men delay across the country there are some other groups that are coming out you know we see many many different labor unions and student groups coming out to

the streets but also we're seeing some ethnic minority groups also marching on the streets right across myanmar as well as there was a group of myanmar muslims who came out as well that's associated with the indonesian proto indonesian embassy protest as well so they are still coming out they are still applying pressure to the joint and we're seeing that pressure really kind of prompt some of the regional players at least to try to make a move a step down the path of a political solution to end this crisis but as we saw with the internees and foreign minister pull out at the last minute there's kind of stumbling out of the gates if you will but with this myanmar. appointed foreign minister in town here in bangkok for these crises talks hopefully they'll be some kind of development coming out of that there hasn't been any press conference announced or if there will even be some kind of official statement coming out of this but at least now there is some regional direct involvement in what's happening in myanmar nick or it's got

today wednesday the pakistani prime minister met with president gore tabi rajapaksa at the presidential complex the building you see just behind me that meeting essentially took place it was the 1st of his sort of agenda today where yet to see the official line but it has been a very cordial visit obviously yesterday the prime minister both prime ministers actually talking about the sort of history between the 2 countries but as i said the issue of the 19 cremations did not come up there was a little bit of a sort of a bad taste with the muslim representatives claiming that their meeting with the pakistan for me had been canceled yesterday there was essentially a demonstration just on the other side of the gulf is green as it's known but today we've heard around hakim the leader of sri lankan

country for essentially feeling to ensure justice and accountability even in 12 years since the end of the war with the tamil tigers way back that was in 2009 so having had a number of sort of resolutions the issue being revisited time and again at the united nations this time it seems that the un sort of mechanism has taken a tougher stance warning in pawling for sanctions we had the sri lankan foreign minister actually yesterday in his address to the council this missing it as soon as the report was initially released the public domain sri lanka said they were rejecting the report and even yesterday the foreign minister you know saying that it was unfair and calling on all members to reject any move to bring in a resolution against sri lanka so that's where it stands we'll hear those representation in a couple of hours from now or that's between colombia and often understands what. a
