Suu Kyi sends video message to US
Nobel laureate Aung San Suu Kyi spoke to members of the US congress by video today, calling for a commission of inquiry into rights abuses and urging support for steps to open up “the real road to democracy” in Burma.
Suu Kyi, freed from house arrest seven months ago, questioned whether Burma has made any real progress towards democracy since flawed elections in November that were meant to end five decades of military rule.
