Myanmar leader attends summit in Bangkok as quake deaths climb to 3,000 | BBC News


Myanmar’s junta chief Min Aung Hlaing is in Thailand for a regional summit as his country reels from an earthquake that killed thousands and left cities in ruins.

The earthquake in central Myanmar last Friday killed 3,085 people and injured 4,715, the junta has said. Hundreds more are missing and the toll is expected to rise.

Critics say Min Aung Hlaing should have stayed in Myanmar to help oversee relief efforts.

The junta leader arrived in Bangkok on Thursday, according to AFP, on the eve of a summit that will gather leaders of the seven countries that border the Bay of Bengal.
