Aung San Suu Kyi finally got to deliver her acceptance speech for the Nobel Peace Prize she won in 1991, reports Reuters. Some highlights from the Myanmar opposition leader's speech in Oslo, from AP:
- What it meant to win: "Often during my days of house arrest it felt as though I were no longer a part of the real world." Winning the Nobel "made me real once again. It had drawn me back into the wider human community. And what was more important, the Nobel Prize had drawn the attention of the world to the struggle for democracy and human rights in Burma. We were not going to be forgotten."
