BURMA: RANGOON: AUNG SAN SUU KYI REUNITED WITH HER FAMILY

(24 Jul 1995) Burmese/Eng/Nat Recently freed Burmese Opposition leader Aung San Suu Kyi was reunited with her family for the first time Saturday since she was released from house-arrest 12 days ago. She was detained by the military Government in 1989. Oxford academic, Dr. Michael Aris, and his son Kim Arundel flew into Rangoon from London Saturday to be reunited with released Burmese opposition leader Aung Suu Kyi. The last time Aris, and 18 year-old Kim visited Aung was in December 1994. The pair are seen here at Bangkok airport as they boarded an aircraft for a flight to Rangoon. Despite numerous media requests for a photo opportunity of Suu Kyi together with her husband and son, the charismatic leader declined. SOUNDBITE: I must refuse request for interview and photo session with my family. They are merely on a private family visit and not involved in any political activities. I do not wish to expose them to any kind of publicity. SUPER CAPTION: U Aye Win, Spokesman for Aung Suu Kyi] Meanwhile Aung, who vows to continue her struggle in Burma, is maintaining a high political profile with members of her political group, the National League for Democracy (NLD). On Sunday, she addressed about 500 supporters who gathered outside her house. U Kyit Maung, Spokesman for the NLD and U Tin Oo, former Chairman of the NLD spoke to the delight of the crowd. Both were released from detention early this year. The leaders told supporters to be patient, cautious and on alert as they are being closely monitored. Aung San Suu Kyi was released two weeks ago after six years of house arrest.
