Myanmar's president seeks Japanese investment

Myanmar's President Thein Sein says he hopes to attract more investment from Japan to promote economic development.

Thein Sein is in Tokyo to attend the Mekong-Japan Summit that begins on Saturday.

He said the ruling and opposition parties are holding discussions about the country's future in parliament.

Japan takes advantage of the fact that China has tremendous economical and financial problems.
