Pro-democracy movement in Burma

Hello everyone. I just finished an article about the Pro-democracy movement in Burma @ Citizendium.

Can anyone find any factual or interpretive errors?

Thank you.

Good article, but find exception to this sentence:
Quote
Suu Kyi had become a prominent leading figure in the movement due to her winning the Nobel Peace Prize in 1991 and being continually subjected to intermittent house arrests by the government in Myanmar (its official name since the military takeover in 1989).

Daw Suu prominent for civil courage and for ability to represent all peoples within Burma. Several world esteemed awards predate the Nobel prize. Daw Suu's leadership preceeds and is not dependent upon Nobel prize. The Nobel prize and decades of detention draw eyes of world to gaze upon her, but do not establish her in the movement. Daw Suu's dedication and hard work bring her to prominence in movement, and leads to election to prime minister position along with landslide victory for NLD one year before prize awarded.

Applaud. Good work!
