General Info
When a military junta took power in Myanmar (then called Burma) in 1988, Aung San Suu Kyi—the daughter of General Aung San, who negotiated Burma's independence from ritain in 1947—entered Burmese politics. Heavily influenced by Gandhi’s philosophy of nonviolent protest, Suu Kyi helped found the National League for Democracy to ncourage the establishment of democracy in Myanmar. When the military junta held general elections in 1990, the National League won easily, and Suu Kyi should have assumed the position of prime minister. Instead, the military nullified the election, and she was placed under house arrest after refusing to leave the country. Suu Kyi was still in confinement when she was awarded the 1991 Nobel Peace Prize. She has subsequently been in and out of house arrest, despite appeals from international organizations, including the United Nations, to free her permanently. In this emarkable biography, students will learn about this brave woman who, despite being faced with insurmountable odds, continues to work toward democratic reforms in Myanmar.

“Even from my sick bed, even if you are going to lower me into the grave and I feel something is going wrong, I will get up.”
—Lee Kuan Yew
Synopsis
Born in Singapore on September 16, 1923. The longest-serving prime minister in world history, Lee Kuan Yew Lee became the first prime minister of Singapore on June 5, 1959. In 1962, Lee led Singapore into a merger with Malaysia, but three years later, Singapore left the union for good.
Early Years
Lee Kuan Yew was born into a wealthy Chinese family that had resided in Singapore since the 19th century. After World War II, Lee studied law at Fitzwilliam College, in Cambridge, UK. In 1950, he was admitted to the English bar, but instead of practicing law there, Lee returned to Singapore to do so.
Political Beginnings
At the time, Singapore was British colony and held Britain's main naval base in the Far East. The country was was ruled by a governor and a legislative council, mostly comprising wealthy Chinese businessmen who were appointed rather than elected by the people. In the early 1950s, Singapore buzzed with talk of constitutional reform and independence, and Lee banded with other like minds to challenge the governing structure of the country. Soon breaking from this group and taking a more radical stance, in 1954 Lee became secretary-general of his own party, the People's Action Party.
The PAP Evolves
In 1955, a new Singapore constitution was introduced. It increased the number of elected seats on the council to 25 out of a total of 32, thereby allowing only 7 seats to be filled by appointment. In the elections that followed, the party founded by Lee's former colleagues, the Labour Front, won 13 seats, while Lee's PAP won merely 3.
But with his party represented on the council, in 1956 Lee headed to London as part of the delegation seeking self-rule for Singapore. After the negotiations failed, Singapore experienced a year of civil unrest, but in 1957, Lee returned to London yet again as talks resumed.
The next year, Lee helped negotiate what Singapore's status would be as a self-governing state, and a new constitution was formed.
Under the new constitution, national elections were held in June 1959. Lee campaigned on an anticolonialist, anticommunist platform and called for sweeping social reforms and an eventual federation with neighboring countries.
Lee's party won a decisive victory, taking 43 of the 51 seats in the assembly, and Singapore gained self-governing status (except in matters of defense and foreign affairs). Lee was sworn in as prime minister on June 5, 1959, becoming the first prime minister of an independent Indonesian state.
Indonesia Independence
Once in office, Lee Kuan Yew introduced a five-year plan calling for urban renewal and construction of new public housing, greater rights for women, educational reform, and industrialization.
His plan also called for a merger of Singapore with Malaysia, and after Malayan prime minister Tunku Abdul Rahman proposed the formation of a federation that would include Malaya, Singapore, Sabah and Sarawak, Lee began to campaign in favor of the effort and to end British colonial rule for good.
To show that the people of Singapore were supportive, Lee used the results of a referendum held in September 1962, in which 70 percent of the votes were cast in favor of the proposal.
So in 1963, Singapore joined the newly created Federation of Malaysia. In elections held shortly after, the PAP retained its control of Singapore's Parliament, and Lee held onto his post as prime minister.
Growing tension between Chinese and Malays in the Federation, however, resulted in rioting in Singapore, notably marked by the Prophet Muhammad Birthday Riots, or Sino-Malay riots, of the summer of 1964. A year later, with racial strife continuing, Lee was told by his Malaysian colleagues that Singapore must leave the federation.
Lee was passionate about working out a compromise, but his efforts proved fruitless, and he signed a separation agreement on August 7, 1965.
The failure of the merger was a serious blow to Lee, who believed that unity was crucial for Singapore's survival. In a televised press conference, he was emotionally drained as he announced the formal separation and Singapore's full independence:
"For me, it is a moment of anguish. All my life ... I believed in Malaysian merger and unity of the two territories. You know that we, as a people, are connected by geography, economics, by ties of kinship ... It literally broke everything that we stood for ... now Singapore shall be forever a sovereign democratic and independent nation, founded upon the principles of liberty and justice and ever seeking the welfare and happiness of the people in a most and just equal society."
With the broken union came problems beyond Lee's personal grief: Singapore's lack of natural resources and a limited defensive capability were major challenges.
Singapore needed a strong economy to survive as an independent country, and Lee quickly spearheaded a program to transform it into a major exporter of finished goods. He also encouraged foreign investment and made moves to ensure a rising standard of living for workers.
And when Lee's main opposition party decided to boycott Parliament from 1966 onward, the PAP won every seat in Parliament in the elections of 1968, 1972, 1976 and 1980.
Lee resigned as prime minister in November 1990. He remained the leader of the PAP until 1992.
In the end, Lee ran his country efficiently and brought prosperity unheard of before his tenure, at the cost of a mildly authoritarian style of government. By the 1980s, Singapore, under Lee's guidance, had a per capita income second only to Japan's in East Asia, and the country had become a chief financial center of Southeast Asia.
For anyone who is interested in earning an income online, affiliate marketing is an excellent place to start. As an affiliate, you will simply be selling the products of a company or organization in return for a commission for every successful sale achieved.
So, if you are an online beginner or a 'newbie' to internet marketing, the major advantage is that you do not need to create a product in order to start selling and generating cash straight away.
This does not, however, mean that it is only beginners who are selling and promoting affiliate products. In fact, many of the most successful online business people and entrepreneurs make a significant percentage of their money from selling other peoples’ products as affiliates.
Nor are the numbers small, either. Many of the most successful online affiliate marketers earn in excess of $US10,000 a month simply through their affiliate marketing efforts.
Affiliate marketing can therefore be an extremely lucrative business, as long as it is done correctly.
"Doing it correctly" so that you can quickly begin to generate significant levels of income from affiliate marketing is exactly what this book is all about!
There are also many different types of affiliate products, and that means that for the majority of people, it is possible to find a product which they can promote in which they have a genuine interest.
As having knowledge of the products that you choose to promote will make it considerably easier for you to do so, this is something that is quite important.
Having said all this, it is a sad fact that most people who try to make money from affiliate marketing will never succeed and that’s often because they choose to promote a product that they are interested in, rather than looking for something that solves problems or answers questions for potential buyers.
So, the first rule of affiliate marketing is, find and sell products that people want to buy, and not those that you find most interesting or enjoyable.
A figure that is widely bandied about in internet marketing circles is that 95% of people who set out to earn an income online will never earn more than a few cents.
This obviously suggests that only 5% will succeed. Some people seem to think that the 5% who make it are just fortunate or lucky - in the right place at the right time.
Whilst having a little bit of good luck is certainly going to help you, I am here to tell you that good fortune is categorically not the reason that the most successful affiliate marketers make it.
These people make it for one reason and one reason only. That is, they treat affiliate marketing as a proper business right from the outset.
So, it follows that everything that they do is predicated on this fact and every decision they make is a hard-nosed business decision.
Even if these folks start off their affiliate marketing career on a part- time basis, nevertheless they do not treat it as a hobby or an interest. It is a business, pure and simple, and is treated as such at all times.
They also understand that no business ever succeeds without hard work, and no matter how many times they see ads telling them that they can earn $1 million with just one hour’s work a day, they don’t shift from the path of hard work and effort, because they know that this is utter nonsense! Successful online business people and internet marketers all have a business plan in place, and are willing to work hard to make sure that they achieve their objectives as set out in that plan. Unlike the majority of people who take up affiliate marketing, they do not expect overnight success nor do they expect such success to be handed to them on a plate.
So, the first thing you must understand and appreciate if you want to be successful as an affiliate marketer is the difference between running a business and trying to make a little money from your hobby on the side. Do this one simple thing and you give yourself a great chance of achieving success, but ignore this rule and you are going to make life very difficult and frustrating for yourself.
