Before the ASEAN summit, ND-Burma delegates met with the Malaysia Human Rights Commission (SUHAKAM) to discuss the human rights situation in Myanmar, to protect refugee and migrant workers in Malaysia and to protest against the election by the military dictators.
On 15 October 2025, SUHAKAM, led by Chairman Dato’ Seri Mohd Hishamudin Yunus and Commissioner Ms. Melissa Mohd Akhir met with members of the Network for Human Rights Documentation – Burma
ND-Burma was formed in 2004 in order to provide a way for Burmese human rights organizations to collaborate on the human rights documentation process. The 13 ND-Burma member organizations seek to collectively use the truth of what communities in Burma have endured to advocate for justice for victims.
The meeting provided a platform to discuss the latest human rights situation in Myanmar including the high rate of civilian casualties and damages to civilian infrastructure caused by airstrikes along with the continued stifling of freedom of expression and assembly. The meeting also discussed the need for the protection and safeguard of refugees and migrants in Malaysia and rejection of the upcoming sham elections that will cause the people of Myanmar to continue to suffer.
SUHAKAM wishes to thank the representatives from ND-Burma for the exchange and looks forward to future engagements.
