&lt;p&gt;The Myanmar ruling military has hinted that it might release pro-democracy leader Aung San Suu Kyi in six months time. But critics argue the words are just empty rhetoric.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Al Jazeera's Hannah Belcher reports.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;I think what is going to happen in the upcoming years&#8212;and we'll have to see how a new U.S. administration plays its part&#8212;is that essentially four dialogues are going to be taking place about the shape of the global order," says Gvosdev.

&lt;p&gt;Thailand's government has resurrected the country's so-called war on drugs that claimed thousands of lives under Thaksin Shinawatra, the former prime minister. Selina Downes reports from near the Thai-Myanmar border where increased drug smuggling and opium production has prompted the crackdown.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Exactly one month ago Cyclone Nargis devastated Myanmar's Irrawaddy delta region, leaving more than 130,000 people dead or missing. Now aid workers are fighting to prevent a second disaster caused by disease and malnutrition. Selina Downes reports from Bangkok.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;In the first of two reports, The Listening Post's Simon Ostrovsky goes undercover to seek out a true picture of the devastation wrought in Myanmar by cyclone Nargis -- a truth carefully concealed and deliberately obfuscated by the ruling military junta.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Myanmar is holding a second day of voting in its constitutional referendum while roughly two million people are still without aid after Cyclone Nargis.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;The military government is seeking approval on a new charter observers say will tighten the regime's grip. &lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Al Jazeera's correspondent inside Myanmar, not identifying her for her own security, has more from Yangon.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;

&lt;p&gt;The US banned gems imported from Myanmar in 2003 as part of wide economic sanctions against the military government.
&lt;br /&gt;But a legal loophole still allows them to enter the country if they are first cut and polished elsewhere.
&lt;br /&gt;Nearly 90 percent of the world's rubies are mined in Myanmar, and many of the good quality rubies in the US originate from Myanmar.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Myanmar has a reputation for being secretive and closed to foreign interference. &lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;But as Al Jazeera's Sebastian Walker reports, it seems the country's ruling generals are playing the political game in Washington DC.&lt;/p&gt;
