Change Afoot?

Suu Kyi, leader of Myanmar’s democratic opposition, smiles to supporters before leaving Shwemawdaw Pagoda at Bago

As the air of change surrounds me, I am hopeful that there indeed are signs of change in Burma as well.

It appears that Aung San Suu Kyi is being allowed to travel the country freely to discuss real democracy and organize political opposition. I was in Asia both when she had her house arrest continued as well as when she was released and all of Asia was captivated by the story. Here is to hoping that this change becomes real.
