Than Shwe - 000008 သန္းေရႊ

Title: Senior General
Commander-in-Chief of the Armed Forces
Born: 1933
Background: Former postal clerk.
Interests: Specialist in psychological warfare, likes kung fu movies, consults blind peasant for astrological advice to make decisions.
Lifestyle: Daughter married in £26million bash in 2006.

Than Shwe, the xenophobic military strongman who has been Burmese Head of State since 1992, has the titles of Commander-in-Chief of the armed forces and Chairman of the SPDC.

It is unknown whether he was born in 1929 or 1933, but either way he is well over the official retirement age for generals of 60, and has ambitions to remain in the presidency for life.

After working as a postal clerk, he joined the army at 20. Specialising in psychological warfare, he has been decorated 16 times.

Dogged recently by worsening health, he has cut back on public appearances after a top-secret week-long stay at Singapore's General Hospital in December 2006. He is known to suffer from diabetes and hypertension, and is rumoured to have intestinal cancer.

Than Shwe was criticised for the excessive, expensive celebrations at his daughter's recent wedding, seen here on YouTube.

A strong believer in astrology, he regularly consults E Thi, a blind peasant with a speech impediment, for advice.

He loathes opposition leader Aung San Suu Kyi, and in 2004 jailed his prime minister, Khin Nyunt, and his family for supporting her greater involvement in Burma's political process.

General Than Shwe, 74, who came to power in 1992, is said to have kingly delusions. Visitors to his home are seated in chairs shorter than his, and the family are rumoured to address each other using royal titles.

The Burmese regime has tried to cloak itself in the mantle of past glories. The generals built a parade ground at Naypyidaw, their remote new capital, dominated by statues of ancient and heroic Burmese kings.

But the senior members of the State Peace and Development Council, as the junta styles itself, are almost all battle-hardened career soldiers.

General Than Shwe's background is in psychological warfare. He took part in operations against ethnic minority Karen rebels in the 1950s, before rising through the ranks under Ne Win, an earlier dictator.

Than Shwe was born in Kyaukse, a small town about 20 miles near Mandalay. It is in the central and northern part of the country. Same as Saddam, Than Shwe’s father passed away when he was about 10 years old and became an orphan.

Kyaing Kyaing - 080049 ႀကိဳင္ႀကိဳင္

Title: Wife of Than Shwe
State Peace and Development Council

It was Kyaing Kyaing who reportedly ordered troops to fire on the monks.

Than Shwe's doctor moonlights as the health minister and the nation's health is almost neglected.

The family has its own pet tycoon, a man named Te Za, with whom Than Shwe has exchanged a free run of the country's natural resources for all the cash he needs.

When the wind died down on Saturday afternoon (after the cyclone Nargis) and the first soldiers appeared on the streets of Rangoon, residents noted that they focused their efforts on the street where Kyaing Kyaing, the wife of junta leader Than Shwe, was staying.

Rumour has it that by Saturday evening a full electricity supply had been restored to her staying residence. By Tuesday night most of the city was still in blackness.

Kyaing Kyaing, who insists on staff addressing her as 'Queen' is in poor health.

Than Shwe let his wife Kying Kying to marry Lu Min, sold off all the government’s GOLD (SHWE) to declare there is no more Shwe, to ward off the end of SHWE (himself). Than Shwe and top three Junta, wearing Burmese Tha Mee (ladies skirts) donated and recorded at a pagoda as donated by Daw Than Shwe, Daw Khin Nyunt and Daw Aye because of the astrologer.

Than Shwe and Kyaing Kyaing were also known to have each ridden a pig and a dog to run around the Shwe Dagon Pagoda's concourse because their astrologer said they would have to run away like pigs and dogs.

Thandar Shwe -080050 သႏၱာေရႊ (ခ) မေပါက္

Title: Daughter of Senior General Than Shwe
(a.k.a) Khin Thandar Shwe
(a.k.a) Ma Pauk
State Peace and Development Council

In an acute display of lack of self respect, Thandar Shwe, daughter of Burmese military junta supremo Snr. Gen. Than Shwe, visited the Myanmar Furniture Fair, pleaded and took away furniture worth approximately USD 10,000 without payment, sources said.

She visited 'Myanmar Furniture Fair 2008' held at the Armed Forces Hall (Envoy Hall) in U Wisara Road, Rangoon on March 8.

She took away a truckload of woodcrafts and furniture in a 'CANTER' truck. Most of the stuff was from 'Golden Pollen Myanmar'.

"She took away all she wanted without making any payment. The furniture companies did not dare ask for payment from her because most of these companies are running on import-export licenses issued by Myanmar Timber Corporation," a source in the industry said.

A staff member from another company said they gave the furniture to her free of cost.

The biennial furniture fair was scheduled to be held from March 3 to 7 but was extended for another two days.

Thandar Shwe, daughter of Snr. Gen. Than Shwe and Kyaing Kyaing, was married in July 2006. In the videotape of the wedding ceremony, she was seen wearing a lot of diamonds. (tiara and choke)

The lavish wedding ceremony where USD 50 million was rumored to have been spent in one of the poorest countries in the world became infamous.

The physical possession of the video disc and video tape of the wedding ceremony carries a prison term and it was strictly banned in Burma.

Thandar Shwe, enjoyed life as Second Secretary at Burma’s Embassy in Beijing.

Her aborted recall to Rangoon in 2004 against her wishes and those of her dad is rumored to have been a factor precipitating former Foreign Minister Win Aung’s downfall.

"ORDERING A MAN TO BEAR A YOKE IN EXCHANGE FOR DIAMONDS”
By Maung Shin (translated by David Law)

According to follow-up news from military social circles, Bo Than Shwe’s daughter had been impregnated by a certain man called Ko Zaw, son of the late Secretary – 2, Gen. Tin Oo, who was assassinated in a bomb explosion at a military base.

The aforementioned Ko Zaw had already been legally married to the daughter of the former Mayor of Rangoon, Ko Lay, and he has a family of his own. The two had been working in the Ministry of Foreign Affairs when they became entangled with each other, resulting in pregnancy.

When Bo Than Shwe found out that his daughter had been fornicating with a married man, his Royal Wrath was aroused and he ordered for a cargo truck to hit and kill the aforesaid Ko Zaw. Fortunately, although he was not killed, half of his body “died.” [translator’s note: became paralyzed.] Ko Zaw was treated at the Intensive Care Unit in Rangoon. While in hospital, Thandar Shwe, disguised, came at night to visit him.

Finally, she abandoned the aforesaid Ko Zaw following her father’s commands and married Major Zaw Pyo Win.

Major Zaw Pyo Win is a reliable subordinate of Bo Than Shwe. In addition, he is afraid to oppose Bo Than Shwe’s orders and hence he married Thandar Shwe, according to investigations.

(Author Maung Shin’s) Note: If you look at Major Zaw Pyo Win’s face from the start to the end of the wedding with Thandar Shwe, you will find no joy, contentment, affection, nor devotion.

Machiavelli, Major Zaw, and Scandal of Than Shwe’s Daughter

According to Burma’s Foreign Ministry diplomatic list, three of Snr-Gen Than Shwe’s MOFA daughters—Khin Pyone Shwe, Aye Aye Thit Shwe and Kyi Kyi Shwe— form the core staff of the Foreign Languages Division of the Ministry’s Training, Research and Foreign Languages Department. But what can their duties be, now that Burma’s once active foreign affairs and diplomacy areas have been hijacked by men in uniform?

Sources in Rangoon say that since the military government doesn’t seem interested in talking to anyone nowadays, the Shwe sisters probably don’t have very demanding jobs, allowing them plenty of spare time to pursue their own business and spiritual interests.

Socialite:
Tay Za's, the sycophant of Burma is reputed to have dated Khin Pyone Shwe.

Maung Waik, one of the richest men in Burma and a powerful crony of the country’s ruling military regime attempted to strengthen his ties to the regime through marriage. According to a relative of Snr-Gen Than Shwe, the most powerful figure in the junta, Maung Waik has recently been courting the general’s daughter, Khin Pyone Shwe.

According to members of Rangoon’s business community, Maung Weik recently divorced his wife, Yin Min Khin, in the hope of marrying Than Shwe’s daughter. (see link; Maung Waik, Burmese Tycoon, Arrested..)

He has business but he is the poorest among all children of Than Shwe. But his properties are 12 mansions, J Donuts shops, My Milk restaurants, and many other import/export contracts. About 35% of these property belongs to him while the rest to Burmese-born Chinese. They are business partners.

His other businesses are Dim Sum foodshops, import from Thailand (Queen Orange Juice Concentrates), nightclubs (Dream Jelly J-J), Karaoke-attached Thai restaurants and many others. No only in Burma, he also has business in China, Thailand and Indonesia.

Moreover, Tun Naing Shwe does business with his former friend, Joseph Khin Maung Thein (son of Oo Aung Thein). They own J&J company together. Joseph manages Tun Naing Shwe's business in Thailand while his sister, Clara, manages those in China.

All these business are due to the power of his father, Than Shwe and are funded by the income exploited from Burma's natural resources.

There is no benefit to the civilians. The businesses are run on labor of the Burmese people. Therefore, we should turn our back on the business owned by Than Shwe's family, Tun Naing Shwe and their partners.
