The social musings of south-east Asian leaders
- Published

South-east Asian leaders have been in the US this week for high-level talks on tensions in the South China Sea, terrorism and climate change.
The two-day meeting, which ended on Thursday, was the first time the Asean group of nations have met in the US with President Barack Obama
But while they were boosting co-operation, there was time for a walk around the Sunnylands estate in California where the meeting took place, and the odd selfie.

Singapore's PM Lee Hsien Loong posted this "wefie" with the Cambodian PM, Vietnamese PM and Laotian deputy PM on his Facebook page

Malaysia: Najib Razak

Malaysia's PM Najib Razak, who has three million likes on his Facebook page, posted a photo at the end of the summit of many of the leaders and Barack Obama

Cambodia's PM Hun Sen, who has faced criticism for threatening to punish those who insult him on social media, showed us his official side...
