Aung San Suu Kyi asks for help to meet Burma's needs

Burmese opposition leader Aung San Suu Kyi has called for help to meet the country's needs.

Speaking at the World Economic Forum in Bangkok, she said job creation and training was vital for Burma's young population.

She added that when investment comes into the country, then it should not fuel corruption or inequality.

Burma's military-backed civilian government has started a series of reforms to open up the country.

''I am here not to tell you what to do but to tell you what we need,'' she said in her first major speech outside of Burma for more than 20 years.
