Myanmar’s State Counsellor Aung San Suu Kyi said Thursday that it is a ‘little unreasonable’ to expect her government to solve the crisis in conflict-prone Rakhine state in just 18 months. (REUTERS/Danish Siddiqui)

In recent weeks, Suu Kyi and her administration has been chastised by human rights advocates and global media for merely watching on as over 1 lakh Rohingya Muslims fled Rakhine for neighbouring Bangladesh in the event of an army crackdown. (REUTERS/Mohammad Ponir Hossain)

Suu Kyi, who was awarded the Nobel Peace Prize in 1991 for her pro-democracy movement, said her administration’s resources are ‘not as complete and adequate as we would like them to be.’ (REUTERS/Mohammad Ponir Hossain/)

“This is the biggest challenge we have had to face. It is a little unreasonable to expect us to solve the issue in 18 months…the situation in Rakhine has been such since many decades. It goes back to pre-colonial times,” Suu Kyi said. (REUTERS/Danish Siddiqui)

Britain has reacted saying Suu Kyi, regarded as one of the most inspiring figures of our age, is allowing the treatment of the Rohingya to “besmirch” the reputation of Myanmar. (REUTERS/Danish Siddiqui)
