Mongolian president to pay working visit to Myanmar

Xinhua, June 13, 2016 Adjust font size:

Mongolian President Tsakhiagiin Elbegdorj will pay a working visit to Myanmar starting Tuesday, local media reported Monday.

During his three-day working visit to Myanmar, Elbegdorj will meet his Myanmar counterpart U Htin Kyaw, State Counselor Aung San Suu Kyi and government officials, a spokesman for the President's Office U Zaw Htay said.

A natural resources management- related workshop as well as a joint conference will also be held during the president's visit, spokesman of the Foreign Ministry U Kyaw Zeya said.

Elbegdorj will be the second world leader to visit Myanmar after Singapore Prime Minister Lee Hsien Loong as the new government took office in April.

In November 2013, President Elbegdorj paid a state visit to Myanmar and the two countries signed an agreement on mutual visa exemption for holders of diplomatic and special passports of citizens of the two countries.

The president then addressed a Myanmar-Mongolia business forum in Yangon and also delivered a speech at the Yangon University on experience of reform in Mongolia. Enditem
