A: Hey, any news about what's happening this week?
   B: Not really, what's up?

A: Well, it seems some big meetings are going on in Kuala Lumpur starting today! The diplomats from Southeast Asian countries and related ones like us, Japan, the US, China, and Russia are gathering there till Friday.

B: Really? What's the main topic of discussion this time?

A: They're gonna talk about a few things, but tariffs introduced by Trump might be the big one. And also, they want to find a solution for the ongoing conflicts in Myanmar.

B: That sounds serious! I hope they can reach an agreement soon.

A: Yeah, me too. A draft statement shows that countries are worried about unilateral actions related to tariffs, which could mean Trump's trade policy is causing some issues globally.

B: And what about Myanmar? Is there any progress there?

A: The draft also mentions deep concern over the worsening conflicts and humanitarian crisis in Myanmar. They want all parties to stop the violence immediately.

B: That's sad to hear...

A: On Thursday, they'll have talks with diplomats from the US, China, and other countries. Marco Rubio from the US and Wang Yi from China are expected to be there.

B: Interesting! I wonder what they'll talk about, like maybe China's activities in the South China Sea...

A: Exactly! Everyone's waiting to see how those discussions will go. Let's hope for some positive outcomes!
