President Obama is due to visit Myanmar (also known as Burma) on Monday. It’s a sign of how far the Asian country has come on reform in the past few years.

Many Burmese are welcoming Obama’s visit, including young people who are studying the American system of government.

Becky Palmstrom spoke with some of them at a campus in Yangon.

    ႊThe president of USA, Obama will arrive on our country which has still difficult and crisis.  Obama can not help for everything in Burma, but we well come him.  He is powerful man among the world’ leaders.  It is true so he can give the advice and helpful thinking.  But we need to switch on the events of world trade and social connections.
