Malaysian PM says he has contacts with NUG government  Malaysian Foreign Minister Saifuddin Abdullah says the Malaysian government has been in contact with the elected National Unity Government (NUG) after the military coup. This is the first time an Asean leader has made such a statement.  The report was first reported by BenarNews, and Malaysian Foreign Minister Saifuddin said in response to an open letter from the ASEAN Parliamentary Group on Human Rights (APHR) that no action had been taken on Asean's five-point peace process. He also urged the NUG to engage with the government.  The APHR letter also called on ASEAN to hold formal talks with the NUG government elected by the people of Burma as soon as possible. Malaysian Foreign Minister Saifuddin said on his Twitter account that he had met informally with the chairman of the NUGC National Unity Advisory Council (NUCC).  At the NUCC, representatives of the NUG National Unity Government; Civil society organizations; Tribal armed groups are involved. For the first time, a senior official acknowledged that there had been secret contacts between some Asean members and the NUG, as well as the Malaysian foreign minister's Twitter account.  Similarly, the implementation of the ASEAN Five-Point Agreement has been slow for about a year, and some Southeast Asian governments have begun to engage more directly and directly with the NUG.     Last week, on the one-year anniversary of the five-point ASEAN Agreement, human rights activists in the region and Burma called for an inclusive dialogue aimed at ending violence in Burma. At present, the political outcome is small. That is why some have called for an inclusive dialogue to mark the anniversary of the ASEAN Accords to end the violence in Burma.   The problem, however, is that if Asean enters into the talks with sincerity and optimism, it will not benefit the coup d'état of Burma and its power will be weakened. According to the Assistance Association for Political Prisoners (AAPP), at least 1,798 people have been killed in areas of military conflict across the country.   An open letter from the ASEAN Parliamentary Group on Human Rights (APHR) states that ASEAN should put more pressure on the Burmese military after a year of inaction by the military council. This year, military leader Min Aung Hlaing failed to implement any of the five-point ASEAN agreement. In addition, he committed crimes against the people of Burma. He said it was time for Asean to impose sanctions on him for failing to address the region.
