ASEAN will find itself in a near-impossible-mission (if not a laughing stock) to smarten-up it's image through this new charter with member countries like Myanmar(Burma),who's been grossly violating human rights issues on it's fellow countrymen for the last half-a-century.
The UN estimated that the death toll could be as high as 100,000 and more than 85,000 still missing; whereas the local NGOs' estimation is 120,000 dead and almost 100,000 missing. In any case, Myanmar government always misinformed the world for the last half a century, anyway.

No, No, Myanmar junta did not delay cyclone aid; it only impounds the thousands of tons of aid material, stockpile them in army warehouses for military use. The junta merely obstrust the international and local donors from reaching out to the cyclone survivors in delta.
Why the so-called government is againts the world's help to save the lives of it's own people is beyond me. Recently, Thai PM claimed that these generals are "good Buddhists, they meditate".
WHAT DO THEY MEDITATE ON? " Power ?, Wealth ? Apart from those nothing seems to be important…
