ASEAN agrees on joint appeal for Suu Kyi's release

Earlier, Faizasyah said that amnesty for Suu Kyi was among the issues discussed by the officials.

The spokesman said Indonesia had urged Myanmar to review the sentence for Suu Kyi and allow her to decide whether she would take part in an election scheduled for next year.

Rights activists have said the sentence was aimed at preventing Suu Kyi from taking part in the election.

Ten-member ASEAN has been criticised from some quarters for being unable to pressure Myanmar's military regime to release Suu Kyi.

The opposition National League for Democracy, led by Suu Kyi, won the country's 1990 elections, but the junta refused to recognise its victory.

ASEAN consists of Brunei, Cambodia, Laos, Malaysia, Myanmar, Indonesia, Singapore, Thailand, the Philippines and Vietnam.
