Synopsis
Ma Thanegi spent almost three years in Yangon s infamous Insein Prison for the crime of being Daw Aung San Suu Kyi s personal assistant. This is her account of those years. This is not only an account of life in one of the world s most notorious prisons. Ma Thanegi tells how a wildly diverse group of women, from political prisoners to prostitutes and pickpockets, banded together to buoy up each other s spirits and to maintain a semblance of normal life. We were supposed to be miserable and we were damned if we d oblige, says the irrepressible Ma Thanegi. She describes the inner bravery and joie de vivre that served her and her fellow-prisoners well, in an account that provides a moving example of how to withstand times of crisis.try{F5_flush(document);}catch(e){}", Ma Thanegi spent almost three years in Yangon's infamous Insein Prison for the crime of being Daw Aung San Suu Kyi's personal assistant.
