In 2011, she was awarded the Wallenberg Medal. On 19 September 2012, she was also presented with the Congressional Gold Medal, which is, along with the Presidential Medal of Freedom, the highest civilian honour in the United States.

And as of 2014, she is listed as the 61st most powerful woman in the world by Forbes…She is Aung San Suu Kyi from Burma.

Worldly recognition to this outstanding lady, a follower of Mahatma Gandhi philosophy of non-violence and also a disciple of Buddhism.

In spite of being placed under house arrest for 15 of the past 21 years, on numerous occasions. She finally made history by winning the elections of Burma.
