Filipino activists urged Southeast Asia's leaders on Friday to address the human rights situation in Myanmar at their upcoming summit.

They displayed large pictures of Myanmar's detained pro-democracy leader Aung San Suu Kyi and placards urging the Association of Southeast Asian Nations to monitor and stop human rights violations in Myanmar, also called Burma.
