Language lesson:

pant suit= what Nancy Pelosi and Hilary Clinton wear on the job.
longyi=Burmese sarong.

pa soe= man's longyi

pah wah=stole, formal wear for females. As worn by Dr. Aung San Suu Kyi--

pan pan hlyet bair

a famous line from Burmese poet Zawgyi's poem

Ma Baydar

Miss (Water) Hyacinth.

"The ducks they are a hundred two hundred
but Miss Baydar

she is always

with flowers in her hair."

Considered Daw Suu's theme song.
