U Yone Mo

by U Wynn Htain Oo (M72)

• Sayagyi U Yone Mo is RIT’s first Rector and our Rector.
• For us he is more than a Rector because he is the father of our Mech72 Kyaw Moe. We treat him like our uncle. He was a very gentle and kind gentleman.
• One evening during our school days, two of my “notorious” Mech72 friends were joyfully swimming in the Circle Pool in front of the main building, when they were suddenly caught by the Rector. Naturally they were very much afraid.
• But SAYAGYI just told them, “You young gentlemen, this is not the swimming pool. There is the University swimming pool and if you want to swim please go there” and left. That’s all. You can see how much those notorious Mech 72 friends were relieved.
• We love our Rector and remember him ALWAYS.
