Prime Minister Narendra Modi is scheduled to leave for Myanmar tomorrow to attend the twelfth ASEAN-India summit on November 12 and the ninth East Asian summit on November 13.
It will be the first leg of his three-nation 10-day foreign tour that will also take him to Australia and Fiji.
Prime Minister Modi's visit is expected to improve ties with ASEAN as part of India's 'Act East' policy and also push connectivity, trade and people-to-people contact in the region.
This will be the Prime Minister's sixth foreign tour this year after Bhutan, Nepal, Brazil, Japan and the United States.
From Myanmar, Prime Minister Modi is expected to fly to Australia and on his return journey after the four-day tour of Australia, he will touch down in Fiji.
He is the first Indian Prime Minister to visit Fiji after Indira Gandhi in 1981 and the first to visit Australia since Rajiv Gandhi travelled there in 1986.
Prime Minister Modi will return from Fiji on November 20 and after five days, he will again fly to Kathmandu to attend the SAARC summit in Nepal.
