Indonesian President Susilo Bambang Yudhoyono on Wednesday called for a major reform of the United Nations Security Council at the opening of a meeting of the Non-Aligned Movement (NAM). Foreign ministers from the 118-member bloc started a three-day meeting on the Indonesian resort island of Bali to discuss reinventing the NAM's global role as it marks its 50th anniversary. "At the global level, we must sustain our efforts at reforming governance, not only in the economic field, but also and especially in the security field," Yudhoyono was quoted as saying by the German Press Agency "DPA". "This means overhauling the UN Security Council, so that it reflects the reality of the world today, a world where emerging powers have so much more to contribute to global peace and security," he added. He also called for the "revitalization" of the UN General Assembly.
