It was at the Bali process meeting in March, the ministerial meeting that took place in mid March, and I can't remember the exact date. Apparently additional members of the Bali process agreed if there was a future crisis, the Bali process will become basically the regional platform to discuss coordinating a response. The problem is that, of course, the Bali process is mostly looking at combatting trafficking and protecting borders, but so far, there is little burning sense of improving protection of the people who speak. Anyway that's the first step. The problem also is that they have this principle of not interfering in each other's internal affairs so expecting at the end to be a strong voice to push the Myanmar government to address the root causes is probably not going to happen. How to spend the $44 million is perhaps a bit beyond my expertise especially when you seek to promote a democratic institution. Dialogue of course is important. That is clear.
