Low-key celebrations for Suu Kyi birthday
Aung San Suu Kyi celebrated her 61st birthday today still under house arrest as the military government beefed up security outside the barricaded home of Burma’s pro-democracy leader.
Suu Kyi, the 1991 Nobel Peace Prize laureate and one of the world’s most prominent political prisoners, has spent 10 of the last 17 years in confinement.
