Aung San Suu Kyi Group Paper

Ming Chuan University

Dr. Chen Ho

Introduce the leader: Aung San Suu Kyi
Aung San Suu Kyi was born on June 19, 1945 in the city of Rangoon, Burma. General Aung San Kyi and Daw Khin Kyi brough her into the world. Her father, General Aung San, was the national leader of Burma until his assassignation on July 17, 1947. His death would be one of the main contributors to her fight for peace and independence for the country of Burma.
- She came back to her homeland in 1988 to take care of her sick mother. While in Burma she joined the pro-democracy movement, which was pushing for political reforms in Burma.
- On July 20, 1989 Aung San Suu Kyi is placed under house arrest in the city of Rangoon.
- She won the Nobel Peace Prize on October 14, 1991.
Motivation
Motivation is the willingness to do something and persistence of effort toward attaining a goal.Aung San Suu Kyi’s father was a national hero who led the Burma independence movement and her mother is an ambassador. It is easy to say, the apple didn 't fall far from the family tree. Suu Kyi has put forth her entire being in advocating against the militant rule in Burma, and also spoke out against oppression and inspired generations of Burmese people – even the world. Defying social convention of “appropriate” gender roles, Suu Kyi led a pro-democracy movement in Burma.
Aung San Suu Kyi demonstrates Maslow 's concept of Self-Actualization through her pursuit of democracy and freedom for her people and the way that she expresses her concern for the well-being of her people. She has struggled greatly, but based on all she has accomplished, both in her spoken and written word, in deed, and in the recognition she has attained (her Nobel Peace Prize, for one), she has certainly achieved great levels of personal growth and self-fulfillment in her proven devotion to her country and her people.
Leadership
People keep saying I 've changed. I used to be

    The Biblical teachings on the millennium are vague and difficult to recognize without a clear understanding of the Old Testament and its covenant promises to Israel. This paper will address the way that the Old Testament sets the stage for the future fulfillment of promises and covenants. Throughout the New Testament there are still continuations of these unfulfilled promises that have future inclinations. This paper will outline the teachings of the Old Testament that are left unfulfilled throughout the New Testament, and how these in addition to the prophecies in books like Revelation teach of the Millennium. In conclusion, the three common views of the Millennium, Premillennialism, Amillennialism, and Postmillennialism, according to biblical scholars will be recognized and discussed to come to a final conclusion of the Bible’s teaching on the Millennium.…

    As globalization affects every corner of the modern world, those who fail to adopt the free market, liberalized, and interconnected system simply cannot compete on the global market. The war against communism lead by the United States allowed for the spread of capitalist ideas that would allow this global market to flourish. In simple economic terms, a global capitalist system allows for countries to use their comparative advantage in order to most efficiently allocate their resources in the form of imports and exports. This proves to be such an economic catalyst that the world has witnessed its necessity in cases such as the utter failure that is the isolationist Democratic People’s Republic of North Korea. While Adam Smith’s famous “invisible hand” of the free market would simply be too restricted under any normal communist rule, China has become the center of much debate. Whether it is a vegetarian steakhouse, a littering environmentalist, or an Argentinian Pele fanatic, such obvious contradictions seem so abstract that, “it strips the original thing of all meaning”5. Capitalism within a Communist party seems hypocritical enough. However, since President Jiang Zemin allowed a capitalist economy to join the Chinese Communist party in the 1990s, China as a nation has experienced nothing but immense progress. Do not expect an influx in communist capitalism however. The timing of China’s development as a nation coincided perfectly with the development of the utmost and paramount device of modern day globalization: the Internet.…

    Throughout the 18 and 19 hundreds, the relationships between blacks and whites were, and in many cases, still today remain intense, primarily because it seems for most African Americans, the rules, although not commonly revealed, have never really changed financially, socially, culturally or politically. The historical progression of the African American population was accompanied by the struggle for equal opportunities and civil rights for the minority race. The historical concepts and issues of African Americans are interrelated and bridged through time; from 1865 to present day, life has changed greatly and incessantly for Blacks.…
