Yangon (dpa) – Opposition leader Aung San Suu Kyi traveled in north-west Myanmar Sunday on a campaign tour that has drawn large crowds but caused some concern about her health, reports said Sunday. Suu Kyi, 66, who is running for a parliamentary seat in an April 1 by-election, was reported to be slightly unwell following a speech to more than 100,000 supporters in the northern city of Mandalay on Saturday. But her schedule was unchanged, with a campaign event planned in Sagaing division and a stop at a Buddhist monastery along the way. On the campaign trail, Suu Kyi has called for reconciliation with the powerful military, known as the Tatmadaw, and vowed to fight in parliament for full democracy. “I will say what the people dare not say, which is that we want our Tatmadaw to stand for democracy,” she was quoted by the Myanmar Times as saying in Heho township on Thursday. She also urged soldiers to vote for her, reminding them that her father is regarded as the architect of the country's independence from Britain. “I am the daughter of Bogyoke Aung San, father of independence,” she said. “I was born into a Tatmadaw family. I want see a warmer relationship between the people and Tatmadaw based on trust.” The enthusiastic crowds attending Suu Kyi's campaign stops are seen as confirmation of democratic reforms introduced by the military-backed government. The army ruled the country from 1962 until a year ago, when President Thein Sein took office and introduced reforms, including the release of political prisoners and allowing Suu Kyi to run for office.
