Malaysia is one of the most aware about human rights out of the ten members of ASEAN. The Malaysian representative to ASEAN, Datuk Muhammad Shafee Abdullah gave a modest boast to explain this result. "We are much more advanced than many other Asean countries...but there is always room for improvement," with further elabortion suggesting that ASEAN intends to revise its Terms of Reference. Shafee also addmitted that while Malaysian human rights are somewhat lacking compared to European standards because of local values, progress is nevertheless being made.
