SYDNEY, Aug. 5
Myanmar said keen to pursue human rights body
Myanmar's ruling junta has shown a ''strong commitment'' to
establishing an independent human rights commission, Australian Human
Rights Commissioner Chris Sidoti said upon his return to Sydney on
Thursday after four days of talks in Yangon.
Sidoti told reporters he had met with a number of government
ministers and was ''surprised by the expressions of support at
several of these meetings for the establishment of an independent
institution.''
