PM, Burma leader agree to contract farm deal

(BangkokPost.com) – Prime Minister Samak Sundaravej and his Burmese counterpart Gen Thein Sein are expected to sign a memorandum of understanding for a contract farming agreement between Thailand and Burma Wednesday.

Gen Thein Sein’s official visit to Thailand comes just a month after premier Samak was in Burma on his first state visit there since becoming prime minister.

Both leaders will discuss energy, labour and transportation issues as well as agree on a joint effort to stamp out the drugs trade.

Gen Thein will leave Thailand tomorrow.
