Mr. Obama will focus on important economic, security and democracy interests in Southeast Asia.
In Bangkok, he will meet with Prime Minister Yingluck Shinawatra to underscore bilateral relations and military-to-military ties between the United States and Thailand.
On Monday, Obama will become the first sitting U.S. president to visit Burma, which has been ruled for decades by a military government.
Opposition leader and Nobel Peace Prize laureate Aung San Suu Kyi met with Obama at the White House in September. They are scheduled to meet again at her home in Rangoon.
The United States has eased sanctions against Burma and is encouraging the country's fragile democratization process.
Aung San Suu Kyi told VOA that more reforms depend on support from the military.
“Until the Army comes out clearly and consistently in support of the democratic process, we cannot say it is irreversible," she said.
The Obama administration says it is realistic about progress in Burma.
“There is this gap, as is always the case in circumstances of the early phases of reform, where there is more hope than reality to sustain it,” said U.S. Assistant Secretary of State Kurt Campbell.
