Southeast Asia's biggest country Indonesia has rejected a US-proposed UN resolution to term Myanmar's junta policies as threat to regional peace and security, a report said Thursday.

Indonesian envoy to the United Nations Rezlan Ishar Jenie said his government maintained stance to oppose the text and efforts to bring Myanmar issue to the UN Security Council.

Rezlan said the overall situation in Myanmar didn't pose risks to international peace and security and the UNSC role accordingly was unnecessary, reported the national Antara news agency.

The UN human rights commission, and not the Security Council, is the more appropriate institution to handle Myanmar problems, he said.

"It's not about defending Myanmar or not. We try to put the problem in the context, whether or not the situation in Myanmar has posed risks to international peace and security," he told the agency in New York.

"Is there any ASEAN (Association of Southeast Asian Nations) member country saying that the situation in Myanmar poses a danger to their security?" he said.

But Rezlan acknowledged that Indonesia is deeply concerned with the human rights issues and democratization process in the fellow ASEAN member.

"We are frustrated by the facts that Myanmar has not properly fulfilled their promise to implement the so-called 'roadmap to democracy.' It was just too slow, we haven't seen any significant progress," he said.
