For the first episode of 2024, I am honoured to be speaking to Sean Turnell. Sean is an Australian economist but has spent much of his career in Myanmar. Most recently, he was the economic advisor to Aung Sun Suu Kyi, the former leader of Myanmar. In 2021, following a military coup which overthrew Suu Kyi and the democratically elected government, Sean was arrested and illegally imprisoned by the junta. He wouldn’t see freedom for another 650 days.
