This panel discussion will review the record to date of Myanmar's NLD-led government, one year after it assumed power. To what extent has Daw Aung San Suu Kyi been able to make headway on major issues and key challenges the country has faced, such as political reforms, the peace process, the situation in Rakhine State, and the relationship with China?

Khin Mar Mar Kyi is Senior Researcher and the augural Daw Aung San Suu Kyi Gender Research Fellow at University of Oxford.

Marie Lall is Professor of Education and South Asian Studies at the UCL Institute of Education.
