Myanmar: A Country at a Crossroads
Light reflects off the pavement after a light evening rain in downtown Yangon, Myanmar, Thursday, August 16, 2007. The citizens of Myanmar live under a highly restrictive military regime where criticism of the ruling junta is not allowed. But lately there have been several protests against rising fuel prices, inflation and the poor living conditions in this southeast Asian country of over 50 million. The latest rallies are by far the largest in recent years. The most recent protest on Wednesday happened one day after the government arrested 13 dissidents overnight who had led a protest against the price increases, including 7 leaders of the 88 Generation Students Group. In 1990, the military junta held elections that it lost and quickly annulled.
Pro-democracy leader Aung San Suu Kyi has been under house arrest for most of the past 17 years since that time.
