Burmese youth have a powerful legacy of political leadership. From General Aung San and his anti-colonial agitators to the student-led protests of 1988 that changed Burma forever, young people have long led from the front. Now, a new politically charged generation has the chance to vote for the first time. <br /><br />Burma goes to the polls on Sunday for an election that is set to cap of four years of top-down political and economic change in the country. <br />The vote is a chance to solidify progress made, and set course for the future. No group has more at stake than Burma’s youth. Young people who could be set to inherit a newly democratic nation.
