Saya U Sein Win (GBNF)

• Younger brother of Dr. Tin U (Medical Superintendent, Rangoon Children’s Hospital) and Dr. Saw Lwin.
• Top student at the University of Michigan.
• His friends called him “Khone Swa Khone Swa” referring to his brisk walking style.
• Lecturer in the Department of Electrical Engineering.
• When EE Department was reorganized, he served as Professor of EP.
• Saya is an absent minded Professor. He married late. One day, he drove Sayagadaw to Bogyoke Market. He taught (or discussed with) his students for quite some time and almost forgot to pick up Sayagadaw. There are variations on this anecdote regarding the place (e.g. Hledan Zay).
• He served as Technical Advisor for UCC. He worked closely with U Win Htein (Purdue University, EE at PWD, GBNF) for the design & maintenance of the Electrical Systems (including Motor Alternator, Diesel Generator, Air conditioning) at UCC.
• Line Judge at the RUBC (Rangoon University Boat Club) Regattas.
• President, RIT Swimming Association; He stays fit by swimming regularly (even when he was visiting Singapore on a business trip).
• He has a vast knowledge. Saya Dr. San Hla Aung (C58) remembers Saya U Sein Win discussing about Civil Engineering and other subjects.
