Myanmar's (Burma) reformist president has cancelled plans to visit Australia next week.
Thein Sein was due to visit Canberra and Sydney at the federal government's invitation next Monday and Tuesday.
But a spokesman for Prime Minister Julia Gillard on Thursday said the former military general turned civilian ruler had decided to postpone the trip.
"The Australian government was advised late yesterday that the president would be postponing his visit to Australia owing to domestic commitments," he said.
"We very much look forward to welcoming the president to Australia at a mutually convenient time in 2013."
