The Burmese
political leader describes her feelings during her long imprisonment
and says that winning the Nobel Peace Prize in 1991 encouraged her to
keep up the struggle for democracy in Myanmar.
The ceremony,
which was held on June, in Oslo's City Hall, has been a very
important political and social event, and Suu Kyi's speech has been
listened and recorded by thousands of people.
Her oration
received two standing ovations and a huge relevance all around the
world.
Aung San Suu Kyi
vicissitudes have been analyzed deeply in an article dated 30 May 2012
:
Here, Al Jazeera
journalist reports a sort of biography of the Burmese leader. It's a
detailed article, and there are narrowly described all the events
that have led to the imprisonment and, then, to the winning of the
Nobel Peace Prize.
Going back to the
first article, we can see that the journalist reports a lot of Suu
Kyi's quotes.
This
helps us analyze her speech and focuses readers' attention on
determined issues. For example it says :
"Often during my days of house arrest, it felt as though I were no longer a part of the real world. ;
"Often during my days of house arrest, it felt as though I were no longer a part of the real world. ;
and
: "What the Nobel Peace Prize did was to draw me once again into
the world of other human beings, outside the isolated area in which I
lived, to restore a sense of reality to me ".
In
my opinion, these quotes are really significant. They show us the
humanity, the personal feeelings and fears of this unique woman.
Al
Jazeera's article, and the speech itself, want to involve the people
in this touching story.
Suu
Kyi's aim is to be remembered, not as a woman who sacrificed her life,
but as a symbol of political and social resistance against violence
and abuses.
