Myanmar (Burma)

Myanmar has not experienced the political progress as anticipated and its Government should take real measures towards setting up a more inclusive political process that promotes human rights, Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon said Sept. 11. Ban told a press conference at UN Headquarters in New York that “We want to see the parties – in particular, the Government of Myanmar – take tangible steps towards establishing a credible and inclusive political process in the country, which of course must include progress on human rights.” (UN News Service)
