Mahachai: In her first trip abroad in nearly a quarter-century, Myanmar opposition leader Aung San Suu Kyi will on Wednesday visit impoverished Burmese migrants in Thailand. The migrants’ flight to neighbouring Thailand is emblematic of the devastation wrought on her homeland by decades of misrule. Fixing a battered economy is one of the most crucial challenges facing Myanmar, also known as Burma, as it opens up in the wake of 49 years of military governance that ended only last year. http://zeenews.india.com/news/world/suu-kyi-visits-myanmar-migrants-in-thailand_778560.html

About Intercultural Resources
Intercultural Resources is a forum for research and political intervention on issues related to the impacts and alternatives to destructive development. Our effort draws upon the social, cultural, material and intellectual resources that have been generated in the course of dialogues between people of different cultures on questions of social justice, development and self-rule.
We are of the view that dialogue can sustain plurality and open possibilities for recovery of the ground lost on account of inter-cultural alienation, which is manifest in a variety of forms of violence that we encounter everyday at different levels of social life.
Intercultural Resources is based in Delhi, India.
