Myanmar's military leader General Than Shwe begins a five-day visit to China today. There are few details available of his visit to China. But he is expected to meet the Chinese President Hu Jintao and other senior leaders during his visit. Analysts believe he want to talk about the reported leadership changes in Myanmar. He will also seek China's support for planned national elections later this year. The two countries are major trading partners and China invests millions of dollars in infrastructure projects in Myanmar. The military government in Myanmar is shunned by many countries because of its human rights records.
