RANGOON — State Counselor Daw Aung San Suu Kyi will travel to Laos to attend the 28th and 29th Asean Summit and related meetings.

The meetings will be held in the capital Vientiane from Tuesday until Thursday. President’s Office spokesperson U Zaw Htay said a statement would be released on Tuesday regarding the visit.

It will be the third time the state counselor has visited neighboring Laos since the National League for Democracy government assumed power in late March.
