Aung San Suu Kyi
By Laura Smith-Spark, CNN
(CNN) - Myanmar's Aung San Suu Kyi gave her Nobel speech in Norway on Saturday, more than two decades after she won the peace prize.
Her presence in Oslo, Norway, on a historic first trip to Europe after years of house arrest, signals the progress toward reform in Myanmar, also known as Burma, over the past year.
Suu Kyi was unable to accept the Nobel when it was awarded in 1991 because she was under house arrest in Myanmar. Her husband and two sons accepted it then on her behalf, paying tribute to her sacrifice.
Greeted by heartfelt applause from those gathered in Oslo City Hall, Suu Kyi spoke of what peace meant to her and also of her country's fragile progress toward democratic reform.
"Over the past year there have been signs that the endeavors of those who believe in democracy and human rights are beginning to bear fruit in Burma. There have been changes in a positive direction; steps towards democratization have been taken," she said.
"If I advocate cautious optimism it is not because I do not have faith in the future but because I do not want to encourage blind faith." FULL STORY

Thanks denk. I just posted an airctle on the half truths in the media. It is the same game, feeding half truth and misinformation to the gullible Asians.The agenda behind all the craps is domination and colonisation of the world, in the present context, colonising the thinking by supplanting daily diet of what they want the Asians to see and think.In democracy, it is the majority that rules and the minority follows. But they are supporting minorities everywhere to bring down legitimate govt. Only place they are not doing is here. Every country will have some who disagree with the govt and in the minority. And the West will feed these groups and fester their resistance against the govt in the name of human rights.They solved their own human rights issues by terminating the Red Indians.
