I have been following events in Myanmar since 1995, and have spent quite a bit of time studying it's history. I have no idea why. I have just seem to be drawn to doing this. To tell the truth, I find Thailand and Cambodia more interesting. But now I'm glad that I have. Interesting days ...
Edit: And OP, Thanks a lot for the link to "The Irrawaddy". I'm always looking for new NON-US sources of news. This journal is exactly what I was going to be trying to find as soon as I got the time to be digging arounf.
