Aung Suu Kyi wouldn’t care even if her Nobel Prize is withdrawn
She is the real leader of Burmese people
She is not like Nehru or Gandhi to care about their own name and fame at the cost of lives of their people
What does this near extinct Oxford University aim to achieve with such an act ? Something like, Oh ! We made an error of judgment. The British should be reminded that the Rohingiya problem is their legacy. Their complicity cannot be overlooked by such knee jerk acts. No one is fooled !
Violence in Myanmar has seen more than 400,000 Rohingya Muslims flee to neighbouring Bangladesh.Myanmar's de facto leader has been criticised for failing to address UN allegations of ethnic cleansing.
St Hugh's College said her portrait had been replaced with a Japanese painting.
It swapped the painting earlier for one by Japanese artist Yoshihiro Takada. The reasons for the portrait's removal are not clear.Communications manager Benjamin Jones said the portrait had been moved to a "secure location" while Takada's piece was to be displayed "for a period".The new painting was presented to the college earlier this month and is currently displayed in the entrance of the college's main building.Ms Suu Kyi, a former political prisoner who has been Myanmar's de facto civilian leader since winning elections in 2015, is coming under growing international pressure to act.
