Burma — Chien-Chi Chang

Preview

Over the past half century, Burma has gone from being the richest to the poorest country in Southeast Asia, and at the same time has become one of the most isolated nations in the world. Today its military rulers are courting tourists and foreign investors who are shown only the handsome temples and scenic attractions in this most Buddhist of countries. Yet behind the cultural façade stands the repressive regime that held Nobel laureate leader Aung San Suu Kyi under house arrest for 15 years. When Chien-Chi Chang posed as a tourist to take these pictures, he never knew who was watching or listening. Big Brother has many little brothers.
