Events off Campus Con. Global Challenges Speaker Series: Myanmar/Burma and the U.S. Pivot to Asia with Michael E. Thurston Thursday, March , 2:00-3:00pm at UF Reitz Union, Room G320 In November 2015 the military junta that has been ruling Myanmar with an iron grip allowed the first free and fair election in more than a quarter century, allowing Noble Peace Prize recipient, Aung San Suu Kyi’s National League for Democracy to peacefully take power. Is this the beginning of that rare peaceful transition to democracy from a military rule? Why did the junta in firm control of Myanmar decide that now is the time for a transition to democratic rule and an open economy? The U.S. has played a seldom discussed, but critical role in the junta’s move towards democracy as part of President’s Obama’s realignment of U.S. foreign policy interests, sometimes referred to as “The pivot to Asia”. Leading this discussion will be Michael E. Thurston, Former Chief of Mission U.S. Embassy in Burma, U.S. Department of State Diplomat & Senior Foreign Service Member. Thursday, March , 4:00pm at UF Curtis M. Phillips Center for Performing Arts VISA Talent Show is BACK and BETTER than ever. Join us at the Phillips Center for a line up of multicultural performances. Watch as the dance troupes battle for the throne as the number one International Students Dance Troupe on the University of Florida Campus. See you there!
