Military detentions of Aung San Suu Kyi and other ruling party figures in Myanmar represent a dark turn for a once-bright opportunity. An economy that lured tourists and foreign companies such as Kirin may be headed back to isolation, writes JennHughes13

Myanmar's elected leader Aung San Suu Kyi and other senior figures from the ruling National League for Democracy were detained in morning raids, Reuters reported on Feb. 1, citing the party’s spokesman.

The Myanmar army said it had carried out the detentions in response to “election fraud”, according to a statement on a military-owned television station, Reuters reported, adding that a military spokesman did not answer phone calls seeking further comment.FILE PHOTO: Myanmar pro-democracy leader Aung San Suu Kyi arrives at Parliament buildings on the Stormont estate in Belfast, October 24, 2013

Reuters JennHughes13 That’s true. No one will come to make investment in Burma(but china would welcome this situation). The country has been bankrupted again by the military junta. The lady was trying to build the credit line from previous bankruptcy. So sad for the people of Burma.

Reuters JennHughes13 Aung San Suu Kyi and civilian leaders are arrested in Myanmar. A country is not a mere territory. For without law, there can be no freedom, only chaos and disorder. We as myanmar citizens are hopeful to consolve this injustice. Myanmar AungSanSuKyi
