More From Aung San Suu Kyi
- "Of course I regret not having been able to spend time with my family."
- "I don’t understand why people say that I am full of courage. I feel terribly nervous."
- "My attitude to peace is rather based on the Burmese definition of peace – it really means removing all the negative factors that destroy peace in this world. So peace does not mean just putting an end to violence or to war, but to all other factors that threaten peace, such as discrimination, such as inequality, poverty."
