Welcome to the ASEAN Inter-Parliamentary Myanmar Caucus (AIPMC)

Since its inaugural meeting in Kuala Lumpur, on 26-28 November 2004, AIPMC has been calling on the military government in Burma to bring about changes and democratic reforms in the country.
 
The grouping of ASEAN Legislators from Malaysia, Indonesia, Singapore, Thailand, Philippines and Cambodia have continuously called for the unconditional release of Nobel Peace Prize Laureate Aung San Suu Kyi, as well as for the freedom of over a thousand other political prisoners in Burma. One of AIPMC's initial campaigns was to urge ASEAN to deny Burma its turn at chairing the regional bloc in 2006.
 
Having succeeded in its campaign, members of the Caucus have now further called on ASEAN to suspend the military government's ASEAN membership if it fails to show concrete democratic reforms in the country, such as acknowledging the 1990 national general election results and convening Parliament.

AIPMC has affiliate members and partners in the form of national caucuses and parliamentary groups outside ASEAN, such as in India, the Republic of Korea, Japan and countries in Europe. The body also works closely with the civil-society Burma movement and members of Burma's government-in-exile.
