Suky's 'Freedom of Oxford' honor withdrawn

Aung San Suu Kyi

With regard to Rohingya refugee crisis, the honor of Myanmar leader Aung San Suu Kyi is being withdrawn from the 'Freedom of Oxford'. Oxford City Council honored him for a long struggle for democracy in 1997.

But the Oxford City Council said, this honor is not suitable for the leader of Myanmar. Myanmar's Rakhine fled on 5th August after five hundred Rohingyas fled to Bangladesh. Aung San Suu Kyi was under house arrest in Yangon for the struggle for democracy under the control of the military junta. That is why he and his National League for Democracy are considered as symbols of freedom and democracy. His party formed the government through open elections in 2015.

But recent leaders of the Rakhine community have criticized Rohingyas for their new conflicts and silence on the issue of racial discrimination against the military. In the Oxford City Council meeting on Monday, it was decided that the information gathered from the United Nations is not suitable for the Aung San Suu Kyi and 'Freedom of Oxford'. The honor will be officially withdrawn in the special meeting next month, but this decision may change if Myanmar's situation improves.

Earlier it was known that St. Hugh College of Oxford withdrew from a Portrait exhibition of Suu kyi.
