Nobel laureate, jailed political activist, Aung San Suu Kyi reported in poor health
65-year-old Aung San Suu Kyi is a Burmese opposition politician and a former General Secretary of the National League for Democracy (NLD). In the 1990 general election, Aung San Suu Kyi's NLD won 59% of the national votes and 80% (392 of 492) of the seats in Parliament, leading some to claim that Suu Kyi was elected Prime Minister. She had, however, already been detained under house arrest before the elections and has remained under house arrest in Myanmar for almost 14 out of the past 20 years. Suu Kyi is slated to be released from house arrest on November 13, 2010. Many believe this is to keep her detained during the country's first election in 20 years (November 7, 2010). A recipient of the Rafto Prize and the Sakharov Prize for Freedom of Thought in 1990 and the Nobel Peace Prize in 1991, and in 1992 she was awarded the Jawaharlal Nehru Award for International Understanding by the Government of India. She is the third child and only daughter of Aung San, considered to be father of modern-day Burma. Suu Kyi's attorney recently reported that she intends to begin tweeting upon her release, in order to communicate with the younger generation. (POLARIS) (FOTO:DUKAS/POLARIS)
