One of my favorite Burmese people - singer Daw Mar Mar Aye

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nuKL69neRiA&feature=related When she first arrived in the United States about 1998, she told me she would "sing in Central Park" and I am so glad she has since sung all over the world for Burmese democracy. One of the golden Burmese people, as opposed to the dark junta. Kyi May Kaung
