Opinion of Aung San Suu Kyi

[🦀🎂🦀🎂]

I genuinely have no idea what to think about this woman, who may be PM of Myanmar/Burma by thee d of this year. On the one hand, she would be a drastic improvement on the current conservative military junta that has misruled the country for decades and allowed the country's services at atrophy. On the other, she does seem to embody Moderate Heroism, especially when something controversial (e.g. The rise of Buddhist far-right extremists and ethnic struggles) comes up.

I'll reserve judgement.

Isn't she hyper popular though? Like I doubt it would really hurt her chances of election if she said 'err cool it guys'. Playing politics involves making compromises, yes, but it also involves cashing in some popularity chips occasionally to do what is right.

At this point does the junta have any choice but to open up? It seems like half opening the door to democracy, and then slamming it shut would be ... Inadvisable.
