Myanmar's Min Aung Hlaing Visits Malaysia Amid Controversial Repatriation Plans
Myanmar's military leader Min Aung Hlaing visited Malaysia to discuss the repatriation of thousands of Myanmar nationals amid ongoing criticism from the UN and rights groups. The visit highlights increasing engagement between Myanmar and some ASEAN countries despite Myanmar's exclusion from top regional meetings since the 2021 military takeover. Malaysia plans to repatriate about 5,000 Myanmar nationals in stages, while concerns remain over the safety of returnees, including the persecuted Rohingya community.
