April 24 (Reuters) - Myanmar's parallel National Unity
Government (NUG) said on Saturday it welcomed "encouraging" news
of a consensus among leaders of the Association of Southeast
Asian Nations (ASEAN) on dealing with the crisis in the country.
The newly formed NUG "looked forward to firm action by ASEAN
to follow up on its decisions and to restore our democracy and
freedom for our people," Dr. Sasa, its spokesman and minister of
international cooperation said in a statement.
The NUG, which is comprised of pro-democracy figures,
remnants of Aung San Suu Kyi's ousted administration and
representatives of armed ethnic groups, says it is the
legitimate authority in Myanmar and was not invited to
Saturday's ASEAN meeting.
