Myanmar
NAYPYITAW - Myanmar's democracy is still in its "infancy" and requires safeguarding by the people, the country's outgoing junta chief said Saturday.
NAYPYITAW - Myanmar's parliament Tuesday nominated five candidates for president, and the country's junta chief was not on the list.
NAYPYITAW - Myanmar's next president will be an elected member of parliament, ruling out the country's current military supremo as a candidate, state media announced Monday.
NAYPYITAW - Myanmar's new parliament Monday elected two military men as speakers of the upper and lower chambers in its first session since the Nov 7 general election.
NAYPYITAW - Security was tight Sunday around Myanmar's newly built parliament compound, which will be used for the first time this week by legislators elected in the country's first polls in two decades last November.
