Independent MP Zoe Daniel says the Association of South East Asian Nations needs to do more to address the crisis in Myanmar. Myanmar is not represented by its military chief Min Aung Hlaing at this year's summit, with Australia maintaining ASEAN's existing ban on political representation by senior members of the military government. More than 4600 civilians have died since the army seized power from Myanmar's elected government in 2021. SBS Chief Political Correspondent Anna Henderson spoke to the Member for Goldstein about the issue.
