In response to press queries, the MFA Spokesman commented:
"Singapore is happy to learn that UN Undersecretary-General for Political Affairs Ibrahim Gambari had a good visit in Myanmar, including having a meeting with Aung San Suu Kyi."
"We hope Myanmar will build on Gambari's visit and work closely with the international community, including the UN and ASEAN, to make further progress. In ASEAN, we have taken a position that Aung San Suu Kyi should be released as soon as possible."
