Suu Kyi confirms to take Oath for Myanmar Parliament
Myanmar's opposition leader Aung San Suu Kyi has said she will swear an oath required to enter parliament. Speaking to reporters in Rangoon, Aung San Suu Kyi said she and her National League for Democracy colleagues will take the oath as soon as possible. She and 42 others were supposed to enter parliament last week after winning seats at historic by-elections on April 1.
But they refused to take an oath requiring them to safeguard the constitution and asked instead to be able to use the word respect. Now Ms Suu Kyi says her party has decided to take the oath to fulfill the desire of those who voted them in.
