United Nations special envoy for Burma Razali Ismail has been given the green light to make a five-day visit to Burma next month to again push for talks between the military government and the opposition led by Aung San Suu Kyi.

According to a BBC report yesterday, the envoy is expected to arrive in Rangoon o­n June 6 for what is to be his 10th visit to Burma.

When contacted, a source close to Razali said the envoy will meet with Suu Kyi and several high-ranking officials although it is uncertain if his visit would include a meeting with Burmese Prime Minister Than Shwe.
