""The state visit to Myanmar between September 3rd and 5th is the first in seven years by a president since the last visit in 2012. We plan to institutionalize the basis for economic cooperation with Myanmar, which has great potential for growth, and discuss ways to achieve joint sustainable growth."
President Moon is scheduled to visit two cities in Myanmar.
The first stop,... is the capital city of Nay Pyi Taw.
On Tuesday, Moon will sit down with State Councellor Aung San Suu Kyi to discuss ways both countries can prosper together, cooperation between South Korea and ASEAN, as well as issues surrounding the Korean Peninsula.
They're also expected to exchange their thoughts on the Rohingya humanitarian issue.
And with President Win Myint,... President Moon will work to strengthen bilateral efforts to help push forward Korea's 'New Southern Policy.'

And on Wednesday, the president visits his next stop, Yangon.
There, the president will deliver a speech at a business forum, held along with a groundbreaking ceremony for an industrial complex created by the two governments.
