The Irrawaddy Burma Election 2010

Home QUOTABLE George Yeo, Foreign Minister of Singapore

“The present Government promises that the elections will be 'free and fair'. Critical to its legitimacy will be the spirit of national reconciliation among the many ethnic groups in the country and the participation of the National League of Democracy and other opposition parties…Singapore supports the ASEAN position calling for the release of Daw Aung San Suu Kyi and her participation in the coming elections.”
—George Yeo, Foreign Minister of Singapore
