An ousted legislator from Myanmar, doing kitchen work in a restaurant in the United States, sends half of his salary to the forces battling the military that seized power in his country. From "home" in a Southeast Asian country, a Myanmar national says nightly prayers for his country at a makeshift altar.
These are but a few of Myanmar's people who are away from home, having taken different routes to other countries since the military takeover on Feb 1 last year.
