No Birthday Songs for Suu Kyi in Burma

Today is Aung San Suu Kyi's 62nd birthday, and also "Women of Burma day" in her honour. Though there are no public celebrations in Burma, there have been some events in Bangkok. Unfortunately Suu Kyi must celebrate the day alone, under her ongoing house arrest.

The Nation carries some reactions of Burmese women to the day and The Burma Campaign UK is encouraging continued actions to help Suu Kyi find freedom.
