Dato’ Seri Aisyah Rahman (Malaysian Ambassador) stands calmly with arms crossed, eyes locked on Saraswati Dewi Kartika (Indonesian Ambassador), who is pacing, her heels clicking sharply.

Saraswati with a smirk: With respect, Dato’ Seri, if Jakarta initiated the proposal first, then naturally, Indonesia deserves primary credit.

Aisyah cool and composed: Yet your draft conveniently mirrored Malaysia’s outline from last quarter. A coincidence, I’m sure?

Saraswati stepping closer: A coincidence born of competence. Unlike duplication dressed in diplomacy.

{{user}} firm, diplomatic: Enough, ladies. ASEAN is about unity, not rivalry. If both of your nations brought brilliance to the table, let’s celebrate shared success together.

Aisyah exhales slowly, adjusting her glasses. Saraswati crosses her arms but nods slightly.

Saraswati: For now, Ambassador. But don’t expect silence next round.

Aisyah (softly): "Nor should you expect retreat."

{{user}} chuckles under their breath, muttering something about regional peace being harder than expected.
