U E Maung is not Bagyi Aung
- A post wrongly said Professor U E Maung was “Bagyi Aung”. It was liked and/or shared by thousands of readers even after U Nay Oke (St. Paul’s) had given TEDx InyaLake talk about his mother (Daw Khin Saw Mu), father (ICS U Ba Tint), his Bagyi (ICS U Tin Tut) and Minthuwun (Saya U Wun).
U Nay Oke mentioned that the four main characters in “Bagyi Aung Nyar De” have all passed away. - The three younger sisters were in the charge of ICS U Tin Tut especially during the school / university holidays.
- ICS U Ba Tint was U Tin Tut’s deputy.
Dr. Htin Aung is not Bagyi Aung
- The earlier wrong version said that Dr. Htin Aung was Bagyi Aung.
- At least the names share “Aung”.
ICS U Tin Tut is Bagyi Aung

- The knowledge was a family secret, but it was later known by close friends.
- U Nay Oke (St. Paul’s) gave a TEDx InyaLake talk on the subject.
