#2 smn, Miss Aung San Suu Kyi was awarded the Nobel Peace prize a good many years ago She has been under house arrest by the Burmese military junta since 1990 -- almost two decades -- because she won the last election held in that country. The Congressional Gold Medal is just the most recent of a long list of awards given her by various governments and organizations during that time; she may never find out about it, because her ability to communicate with the world beyond her walls is tightly controlled.

Do please at least google the subject to keep from revealing such abysmal ignorance.
