Myanmar pro-democracy leader Suu Kyi talks to supporters as she gives a speech in Monywa
Myanmar pro-democracy leader Aung San Suu Kyi talks to supporters as she gives a speech in Monywa November 30, 2012. Suu Kyi offered to mediate between company officials and those who are opposing a vast copper mining project after riot police fired water cannon and tear gas on Thursday to break up a three-month protest against the project run by the powerful Myanmar military and its partner, a subsidiary of a Chinese arms manufacturer. Activists said at least 50 people had been injured and 23 were in hospital, some suffering burns after incendiary devices were hurled into their camps by police.
