Uploading a picture of Saya U Kyaw Myint from RIT Textile Department now living in Richmond, British Columbia, Canada – a suburb of the City of Vancouver.
I did a day trip from Kirkland, a suburb of Seattle, Washington, US to go see him and his wife Daw Shirley Saw Thant Yee on Thursday September 12th 2024.
We had a light lunch with his middle daughter at nearby Restaurent. Ma Shirley was sleeping so decided to let her sleep. We ended up having a good chat for couple of hours reminiscing life, our friends, families among many subjects. We used to do that quite often since they migrated to Canada. We haven’t met for over a year, other than occasional phone calls, so we were having a good time this time.
We forget to take some pictures, then realising we haven’t, took this picture while coming down the stairs. It was taken by his youngest daughter.

Thanks for your birthday wishes. I really appreciate it. I am lucky to have good friends and good former students like you in my life. Hope I will be able to see you in person some time in future.

Saya played on the RIT Sayas soccer team.
Saya and his brothers U Soe Thein and Saya K C Chiu attended SPZP-2000. Sayagadaw was a bit disappointed when memorabilia were handed out to RIT sayas and sayamas and not to office staff members.
