New Delhi (Mizzima) – Burmese Nobel Peace laureate Aung San Suu Kyi has been invited by the Dalai Lama, the Tibetan religious leader, to attend a conference in the Czech Republic.
The National League for Democracy said the meeting in early December would include Nobel Peace laureates and other world leaders.
Since 1988 when Suu Kyi returned to Burma, she has never gone out of the country.
She has received about 100 international awards, but has not attended any of the presentation ceremonies. There is public concern that if she leaves to visit a foreign country, she would not be granted re-entry into Burma.
Normally, Suu Kyi sends a video message to international meetings and conferences or participates in live discussions.
