ASEAN leaders likely to debate Rohingya

Manila, Nov 13: The Southeast Asian leaders during their summit meeting here on Monday could skip major deliberations of South China Sea dispute, but are expected to raise the Rohingya refugee crisis that hit its member nation Myanmar in a big way.

“It will be taken up by our leaders, but it is always good start when the state which is dealing with the internal problem brings it up and opens up the topic,” Philippine Foreign Affairs Secretary Alan Peter Cayetano told reporters here on the sidelines of the ASEAN Summit and other related high-profile meetings.
