Hillary Clinton to Meet Myanmar President

US Secretary of State Hillary Clinton and Myanmar President Thein Sein will meet in the Cambodian tourist town Siem Reap on the sidelines of a business conference, amid concerns among rights groups that the US is moving too fast in its eagerness to cash in on Myanmar's vast business potential.

Washington on Wednesday gave the green light for firms to invest in the southeast Asian country, including in oil and gas, in its greatest loosening of sanctions to reward reforms after nearly half a century of military rule.
