\ AUST> AIA,
PRIME MINISTER
FOR MEDIA 28 March 1984
The Prime Minister of Burma, U Mauting Maung Kha, will visit
Australia on 2-7 April 1984. He will be accompanied by his
Minister for Foreign Affairs, U Chit Hlaing and his Minister
for Mines, U Than Tin.
This will be the first high-level Burmese Government visit to
Australia since the visit of President U Ne Win in 1974. It
follows Mr Hayden's visit to Burma in November last year.
I look forward to meeting Prime Minister U Maung Maung Kha in
Canberra, and discussing regional and bilateral issues. The
meetings and discussions will contribute to strengthening the
friendly links between our two countries.
Prime Minister U Maung Maung Kha's itinerary will include
visits to Victoria, Queensland and New South Wales where he
will inspect projects involving the development of Australian
natural resources.
Ministers and senior officials travelling with the Prime Minister
will be having discussions with their Australian counterparts during
the visit.
