WASHINGTON - SECRETARY of State Hillary Rodham Clinton is pledging to work with Nobel laureate Aung San Suu Kyi to promote democracy in Myanmar.
Department spokesman PJ Crowley said in a post on Twitter that Mrs Clinton called Ms Suu Kyi on Wednesday.
Ms Suu Kyi was released from house arrest after the country held its first elections in two decades in November. She had been detained for seven years.
Her National League for Democracy party said the elections were a sham and did not take part. It was disbanded by the government as a result. -- AP
