HARITAGE OF STRUGGLE AUNG SAN SUU KYI

Heritage of Struggle : Aung San Suu Kyi' is the story of a reformer, who combats violence and bloodshed with peaceful fearlessness – a leader of international standing, who restored democracy to Myanmar, Suu Kyi can be compared to Mahatma Gandhi. Suu Kyi fought against a much more powerful military tyranny, by making non-violence and tolerance her arms of defense. The basic difference between the campaign of India’s father of the nation, Mahatma Gandhi and Suu Kyi is that Mahatma Gandhi took the support of peace and non-violence to free India from the foreigners, but Suu Kyi had to take on the unrestrained rulers of her own country, who had created the same terror in the minds of their own brothers and compatriots, as that which is felt under foreign slavery, thereby stifling their democratic rights.
