Hmm. Perhaps wait and see what she actually does?

Don't know that DLT still does it, but he did then.
She was sharp as a knife when someone asked her why she did not condemn the conflict on Burmah's borders with a:
resolving conflict is not about condemning, it is about understanding.

She is an amazing woman - can't believe she is 67. A worthy Peace Prize winner.

If I have to be reincarnated, I'd like to please come back as Aung San Suu Kyi. So-called celebs, eat yer hearts out!

I agree, she does seem to be a very lovely person.
BTW, I didn't know DLT did a World Service programme!

She has such stillness about her - her inner beauty shines out.

Celebrating her 67th, by making her Nobel Peace Prize speech in Oslo. And visiting her old Oxford College. So sad that her husband is not still around to appreciate this moment. She met Dave Lee Travis today whose World Service programme helped to cheer her up in her long years of house arrest. smile
Huge respect to her - she is a worthy successor to Mandela.
