NAYPYITAW, 14 June, 2021 (TON): Amid efforts to cater crisis in Myanmar, protestors burnt ASEAN flag while protesting against the dictatorship.

In Yangon's Tamwe township, around 100 demonstrators marched briefly chanting, “let’s end military dictatorship” and “let’s root out the fascist army”.

The demonstrations are the consequence of the trial of ousted leader Aung San Suu Kyi that will hear its first testimony in a junta court Monday, more than four months after February's military coup.

However, ASEAN has led diplomatic efforts to resolve the crisis in Myanmar, but observers have questioned how effective it can influence events in the country.
