>Johnny, about 30 years old, said his group, who call themselves
>the Vigorous Burmese Student Warriors .
>In a sign of frustration dogging Myanmar's opposition after
>decades of harsh military rule, Johnny denounced Aung San
>Suu Kyi, leader of the harassed legal opposition and winner
>of the 1991 Nobel Peace Prize for her nonviolent promotion of
>democracy.
>"I don't like Suu Kyi because I don't think she really loves
>the country," Johnny remarked. "She doesn't have the courage
>to run the country."
>He said that Suu Kyi's marriage to a British academic, the
>late Michael Aris, proved that she preferred foreigners to her
>own people - a line of reasoning pushed by the military government
>in its branding of Suu Kyi as a traitor.
>"I'll be against her if she's in the government," Johnny said.
