we are working with the government of building national action plans on conner corruption. one of the key messages the president will bring is the remarkable decision to reform made by burma may depend on the engagement and empowerment of the people of burma. the united states has long been a supporter of their civil society. we want to make sure they continue to be empowered under taking part of the transformations. another key challenge is the plight of the ethnic minority. we're deeply concerned about the situation where they have been discrimination and violence and a spike in recent months the government has taken steps allowing humanitarian access to many of the affected areas and making a clear pledge to bring instigators of the violence to justice. they need to follow through money to these. our ambassador has been working closely with the government and how to proceed to ensure the safety and welfare of people. i expect the president will address this when he is there. following burma, and he will address concerns to the asia- pacific region. invariably the leaders
