A very good 🧵 on why Asian #climate leadership is needed to up this region's climate ambitions!

Fulcrum Commentary by sharon seah and Moe Thuzar - After years of intractability, the regional organisation needs to move as one to make any headway on Myanmar. It is not clear this can be done without inclusive conversations. #ASEAN fulcrum.sg/asean-needs-a-…

Malaysia considering permanent special envoy to Myanmar. Apparently some members asking.
