Seems this position is a family affair, here's an outline, a few things pop up for me, including being a Nobel laureate - what did she 'do') and the military coup part 🤨

"A court in military-ruled Myanmar has found former leader Aung San Suu Kyi guilty of corruption, the latest verdict in a series of secret trials.

Ms Suu Kyi has been under house arrest since February 2021 when a military coup ousted her elected government.

The 76-year-old Nobel laureate has been charged with a raft of criminal offences including voter fraud."

Thank you - Interesting background (esp her father), and she's certainly showed herself to be a fighter. A puppet? Don't know, but will keep open mind on this one.

I know nothing but I did get the 'feels', so I shared it and then had to get to bed, hoping someone had something to say about it, or know something.
Myanmar, aka Burma, has been under siege for a long time, I met a woman from there back in 2007ish who said she had to leave, it was bad there and that was then. In looking at their cultural history I can see that they have been heavily influenced by Indian culture and Buddhism but have been subjected to China for centuries. They've had the fortitude to keep their own culture alive and well in the face of outside occupiers. Their architecture, or more exactly, their love of the pagodas are evident, some are even covered in gold, this has got me even more curious about it, them, or at least the area.

Just had a look at Britannica and found this photo from 2012, with this caption:"Opposition leader Aung San Suu Kyi and U.S. Pres. Barack Obama at her residence in Yangon, Myanmar, November 19, 2012.
