Burma’s Suu Kyi trial to resume today

AS AUNG San Suu Kyi’s trial enters its second week, taxi driver Aung Thein offered a widely held view on its eventual outcome.

“She’s innocent,” said the 45-year-old law graduate who drives an old Toyota on the streets of army-ruled Burma’s main city, Yangon.

“But I’m not sure the court will go according to the law. It hardly does so,” he said of the trial, due to resume today.
