More From Aung San Suu Kyi

Burma is located between china, india, and south east asia. so it is quite natural that a country wanting diplomatic relations with our country would pay attention to who our regional neighbors are. it is not at all fair to ask a country to build relations with burma but not take into account the situation in china. there is no way to think that taking the chinese situation into consideration shows a disregard for burma.

I still oppose "visit myanmar year," and i would ask tourists to stay away. burma is not going to run away. they should come back to burma at a time when it is a democratic society where people are secure - where there is justice, where there is rule of law. they'll have a much better time. and they can travel around burma with a clear conscience.

Early childhood development has proved to be very beneficial and very cost-effective in societies where this is been tried. so let's not confine ourselves to primary education. let's think of early childhood development and education as a whole.

Leadership has to be focused on some very radical ideas that only we as 21st century people can talk about: making sure people have a livelihood, making sure people receive a living wage, making sure the environment, the mother earth, is embraced and cherished and not destroyed. making sure people are healthy in what they eat, making sure we hold people and corporations accountable for the damage they do not only to our environment but to our institutions.

When i look back on my childhood i wonder how i survived at all. it was, of course, a miserable childhood: the happy childhood is hardly worth your while. worse than the ordinary miserable childhood is the miserable irish childhood, and worse yet is the miserable irish catholic childhood.
