Today we are going to discuss some famous people from Myanmar. Perhaps you already know who they are.
Two people in
Myanmar are being known in some parts of the world for their knowledge and their
hearts for their people. Both have sacrificed themselves for the people in Myanmar
and will do anything for them to lead comfortable lives. The people
living in Myanmar are very grateful for their help. They are Aung San Suu Kyi
and U Thein Sein.
1. Aung San Suu Kyi was born in
19 June 1945 and she is now 68 years old. She has two children named Alexander and
Kim. She is one of the world's most famous political prisoners who was under house arrest in Burma from 20 July 1989 to 13 November 2010.
This was because she spoke out against the dictator, U Ne Win toward achieving
democracy and human rights. Aung San Suu Kyi was unable to see her husband Michael Aris and her two sons during
her time in house arrest.
