TOKYO
(AP) — Burma’s president says his
country is eager for Japanese investment as it undergoes political and economic
reforms.
President
Thein Sein is visiting Tokyo for this weekend’s summit between the leaders of
Japan and five Mekong region nations — Thailand, Cambodia, Vietnam, Laos and
Burma.
Thein
Sein said Japanese investment and know-how was needed to help Burma develop and
shrink the economic gap between the Mekong region and other countries in
Southeast Asia.
Japanese
companies have held back from investing in Burma in recent years because they
didn’t want to upset relations with the U.S. and the EU, which have imposed
sanctions on the country.
Recently,
there have been moves toward lifting of Western sanctions after Burma’s
nominally civilian government implement a series of political reforms over the
past year.
