Footage has emerged of US Secretary of State Hillary Clinton appearing to doze off during a Barack Obama speech in Myanmar on Wednesday. She was seated next to Burmese freedom icon and Nobel Peace Prize winner, Aung San Suu Kyi.
After putting up a brave fight for the first half-hour – listening to the US president talk about the former military dictatorship’s reform process – it seems all the jetlag finally caught up with Hillary and she succumbed to what appeared to be a deep meditative state.
Images of the incident were quickly circulated on Twitter and other social networks, where many users empathised with Clinton, pointing out she has “a gruelling schedule”.
