Warm welcome: President
Obama uses a traditional greeting to say hello to democratic activist Kyi
Political handshake: Kyi
is a controversial character in her country as she opposes the military junta
that controls the majority of the country but has been embraced by the
international community
Happy to be hosted: Now
a member of parliament, Suu Kyi lives in a gated residence with razor wire
along the top of the compound walls which is where she hosted Obama and Clinton
Both sides: The President
also met with Myanmar's President Thein Sein during the six-hour trip
Making a point: The
President said that while the country has grown in recent years, there is still
a lot of work that needs to be done
Quite the crowd: Throngs
of supporters lined the street as the presidential motorcade drove through
Yangon
Acting like a local:
President Obama visited the Shwedagon pagoda as part of the whirl-wind trip
Paying respects: The
visit is of great symbolic significance as Obama is the first American
president to ever visit
New frontiers: President
Obama arrived in Myanmar with Secretary of State Hillary Clinton on Monday
morning
Putting the past behind:
Obama is the first American president to visit the country because of it's
turbulent history
Entering history: The
trip is seen as a very significant milestone in the country's evolution
Greetings: Myanmar, also
known as Burma, was rife with human rights violations but has been becoming
more democratic under the new government
Embracing: A young girl
in traditional dress hands the President a bouquet at his arrival
Welcoming: Students
lined the streets for Obama's arrival, and he is expected to meet with the
nation's prime minister and democracy advocates, and close with a speech at the
University of Yangon
Unusual pairing: Obama's
visit was to last just six hours, but it carries significant symbolism,
reflecting a remarkable turnaround in the countries' relationship
Expectations: Obama will
meet separately in Myanmar with Prime Minister Thein Sein, who has orchestrated
much of his country's recent reforms
Taking it all in: The
president walks off the plane after being greeted by a local official
New venue: The brief
visit is a part of a longer tour of South East Asia
Saluting the welcomers:
