Saying Goodbye To The Kojo Nnamdi Show
On this last episode, we look back on 23 years of joyous, difficult and always informative conversation.
Most people know very little about the Southeast Asian country known as Burma or Myanmar. A panel of experts joins Kojo to discuss how military rule intersects with culture, politics, economics, illicit drugs, and human rights in this resource-rich though currency poor country.
Guests
- David Steinberg Distinguished Professor and Director of Asian Studies, School of Foreign Service, Georgetown University; author "Turmoil in Burma: Contested Legitimacies in Myanmar" (forthcoming)
- Bo Hla-tint Minister for American Affairs, National Coalition Government of the Union of Burma
