Why is no one in ASEAN or in the West demanding Proof of Life for ASSK, or are they willing to let this brave woman disappear from their and the world's consciousness, thereby fulfilling the junta's prayers?

I suspect that in this case "the juice isn't worth the squeeze". It isn't clear to me how confirmation of her status would really change anything on the ground.

It wouldn't. Nonetheless, is she to be forgotten like Liu Xiaobo in China and those dissidents entombed in Russia's gulags?
