ASEAN MINISTERS TO SIGN DECLARATION ON MIGRANTS, PEOPLE TRAFFICKING

Asean security ministers are set to sign off on the Kuala Lumpur Declarations on "Irregular Movement of Persons" and "Combating Transnational Crime", both related to the headlining issue of migrants and people trafficking. The signing on Tuesday morning kicks off the latest in a string of meetings that have repeatedly failed to address these problems. Hundreds of bodies were found in "death camps" and thousands from Bangladesh and Myanmar were left adrift in crowded boats earlier this year. Despite several regional pow-wows called in the wake of the humanitarian crisis, the regional bloc has so far only come up with strong statements, but little in terms of concrete actions. - SHANNON TEOH
