The movie-star will be in Myanmar, this week on a three-day mission to help combat child trafficking in the Southeast Asian nation. UNICEF announced Tuesday that in his capacity as a good-will ambassador, Chan will visit the agency's projects for supporting trafficked children under special care for trauma and distress. He also will meet with officials of the Social Welfare Ministry and members of the Myanmar Police Anti-Trafficking Task Force .
