"Most famous among them is Aung San Suu Kyi, the Nobel peace prize winner who has spent 12 of the last 18 years under house arrest."

"She led her National League for Democracy party to a landslide victory in 1990 elections, but the military never recognised the result."

TY, Manny.

Thanx Guys! Important to stay on top of this! Jim I just love your wise comments. I will pray for Aung San Suu Kyi, too. Bless You.
