During his stay, a meeting between the two leaders is anticipated to discuss crucial matters concerning the nation. These include the safe and dignified repatriation of illegal Myanmar nationals back to their home country. The leaders will also review progress made under ASEAN mechanisms.\n\nFurthermore, the visit aims to maintain Prime Minister Anwar Ibrahim's direct engagement with Myanmar, in line with the 48th ASEAN Summit's decision. The summit emphasized continuing constructive and principled engagement with Myanmar, adhering to the Asean Five-Point Consensus (5PC). As the Chair of ASEAN in 2025, Anwar Ibrahim has already met Min Aung Hlaing twice.\n\nBeyond these discussions, Foreign Minister Mohamad Hasan has visited Myanmar in April, October 2025, and May 2026. As an integral ASEAN member state, Malaysia pledges to continue supporting ASEAN's endeavors to foster peace, reconciliation, and access to humanitarian assistance in Myanmar. The nation will also collaborate closely with all ASEAN members to ensure regional stability and prosperity.",
