Myanmar leader Min Aung Hlaing met Malaysian Prime Minister Anwar Ibrahim in Putrajaya on Thursday (Oct 8 ), with the repatriation of thousands of Myanmar nationals high on the agenda. Min Aung Hlaing said Myanmar nationals held at immigration detention centres in Malaysia would be brought home as soon as possible. However, neither leader said whether the talks included plans to repatriate Rohingya Muslim refugees, many of whom fled a brutal military crackdown in Myanmar's Rakhine state in 2017. Anwar also said Malaysia would do “whatever possible” to help Myanmar fully reintegrate into ASEAN. #myanmar #malaysia #malaysianews Subscribe to our channel here: https://cna.asia/youtubesub Visit our website: https://cna.asia Download our app: https://cna.asia/app Get our editors' picks of stories via chat apps: Telegram: https://cna.asia/telegram WhatsApp: https://cna.asia/whatsapp Follow us on these platforms: https://www.facebook.com/channelnewsasia https://www.instagram.com/channelnewsasia https://www.tiktok.com/@channelnewsasia
