Aung San Suu Kyi Is FREEEEEE!


Can’t begin to put in words the joy I feel now. A few minutes ago a friend posted on Facebook that Suu Kyi, the Burmese Opposition leader confined under house arrest for the past 7 years, is finally free.

Twitter postings says she is interested in using social media to connect.  Hahaha, good for you ma’am. Welcome to the outside world.

Now let’s pray that the antsy generals in Myanmar don’t do an about turn and put her in again.

It always struck me as the height of insecurity that the powers that be in Myanmar fears a small, fragile-looking woman.

Still, nothing can stop the passage of an idea whose time has come…
