Burma’s pro-democracy leader, Aung San Suu Kyi, has made her first political trip outside the main city of Rangoon since her latest seven-year house arrest ended in November. Suu Kyi met with supporters in two towns on Sunday, defying warnings from the military junta the trip would spark riots. Suu Kyi has spent 15 of the last 22 years in detention.
