Suu Kyi certainly canceled attending the 72nd meeting of the UN General Assembly

Myanmar state adviser Aung San Suu Kyi failed to attend and addressed the 72nd meeting of the UN General Assembly on Sept. 20 following widespread criticism over his silence in the face of the Rohingya crisis. The UN Security Council will hold a meeting to discuss Rohingya's case today, Wednesday. Suu Kyi's former supporters in the West have expressed harsh criticism, and called the middle-aged woman to fail to do something to prevent the spread of violence.
The UN also accused the Burmese government of allowing Rohingya ethnic cleansing. Director General of the Office of President U Zaw Htay explained the annulment of Suu Kyi's presence at the UN on Tuesday 12 September 2017.
As quoted by the Nikkei Asian Review on September 13, 2017, a Foreign Ministry spokesman said Suu Kyi will focus on resolving the problem at home. A government spokesman, Aung Shin, also told Reuters that Suu Kyi had more urgent problems to deal with.
"He's never afraid of criticism or facing problems," he said.
Instead, Myanmar Vice President U Henry Van Thio is planned to lead the delegation to attend the UN General Assembly.
The Rakhine State bordering Bangladesh has been the focus of conflict and major clashes that began in 2012 between the majority of the Buddhist population and a growing number of Muslim minorities and call themselves Rohingyas.
The poor situation of the Rohingyas in Rakhine has received international attention following a military operation muzzling Rohingya rebels, ARSA, in October last year and August 25, 2017.
The decision came as Aung San Suu Kyi, a Nobel Peace laureate, faces a sharp spotlight on her response to the Rohingya Muslim situation in her country.
Aung San Suu Kyi, Myanmar's de facto leader, reaped international criticism over Rohingya crisis. He was accused of not doing much when hundreds of thousands of ethnic minorities were persecuted.
