Prospect Burma was delighted to be involved with the Burmese community in organising "An encounter with Daw Aung San Suu Kyi and the People of Burma in the United Kingdom" on June 22nd at the Royal Festival Hall. Prospect Burma's Chairman, Robert Gordon, had the honour of welcoming Aung San Suu Kyi, and following a brief meeting with Prospect Burma's Trustees, she addressed her people in Burmese and then took on a question and answer session before watching a cultural performance of song and dance.

Our thoughts are with him and the community health workers whose skills are now aiding the lives of over 130,000 Burmese people in 147 villages, who previously had no access to medical care. Through the generosity of our supporters, Dr Sasa received a scholarship from Prospect Burma for seven years, and graduated as a doctor in 2009. All Prospect Burma's scholarship students commit to return to Burma with their new found skills when possible. |
