Hun Sen chides critics of his upcoming visit to Myanmar


PHNOM PENH (The Phnom Penh Post/Asia News Network): Prime Minister Hun Sen (pic) hit back at critics of his planned visit to Myanmar in January to meet General Min Aung Hlaing, chairman of the ruling State Administration Council (SAC), in a bid to bring the country back into the good graces of the other Asean member states through a settlement of the ongoing political crisis there.

Earlier this month, Hun Sen announced his intention to visit Myanmar’s capital city of Naypyidaw on Jan 7-8, but his efforts to find a solution to the crisis and bring Asean back to full strength as a 10-member bloc have come under criticism, with some saying his visit would “indicate recognition” of the provisional government.
