Myanmar's Suu Kyi ends US trip, hailing democracy

LOS ANGELES - Nobel laureate Aung San Suu Kyi wrapped up a landmark two-week US trip praising eastern Europe and South Africa's democratic transitions - but saying Myanmar must find its own path.

The opposition icon, who flies home on Wednesday, said Myanmar has to develop its own form of democracy - one that would probably not be like that of the United States, where a presidential election is only weeks away.
