Myanmar's ousted ruling party leader meets Suu Kyi

President Thein Sein sacked Shwe Mann from the ruling Union Solidarity and Development Party (USDP) in dramatic fashion last week, in part because of his relationship with rival party leaders.

Shwe Mann, who remains speaker of parliament and a USDP member, had built ties with Suu Kyi.

The two met for an hour on Monday, the parliamentarian said on condition of anonymity. He said he did not know what they discussed.
