Research Paper (undergraduate) from the year 2011 in the subject Politics - International Politics - Region: Far East, The George Washington University, language: English, abstract: Reform in Burma is occurring right now because of the engagement initiatives of the Obama administration and the willingness of Aung San Suu Kyi to work with the regime. The atmosphere of Chinese dominance has caused ethnic strife, economic intrusion and environmental degradation, and the regime's mishandlings in 2007 and 2008 placed the proverbial last straw upon the regime's fatigued political legitimacy.
