    Book published for his 70th birthday

    Memories

    Book Presents

    Dr. Thane Oke Kyaw Myint (SPHS60) receives books from his former students and from his god-children.

    He received a book from Professor Dr. Nyunt Thein.

    Dr. Nyunt Thein proposed to have some (if not all) of the examinations for MRCP to be held in Burma.

    Dr. Thane Oke Kyaw Myint wrote :

    Due to Nyunt Thein’s efforts, all parts of the exam are being conducted in Rangoon and Mandalay.

    Dr. Thane Oke Kyaw Myint wrote :

    I am so fortunate that books written by my former students are either given to me by the authors or bought for me by my niece Hnin Wit Yee or Min Thet Aung.

    I got a signed copy of “The Female Voice of Myanmar” by Nilanjana Sengupta, translated into Burmese, by Myae Hmone Lwin. It was given to me by Ma Thida.

    The book consist of articles about and by four eminent lady Burmese writers and activists: Ludu Daw Ah Mar, Daw Khin Myo Chit, Daw Aung San Su Kyi and my “daughter writer” Ma Thida (San Gyaung).

    Please do not say that I am biased towards my daughter but I read the articles on Daw Ah Mar, Daw Khin Myo Chit and Daw Sung Dan Su Kyi once only but read and reread the articles by and on Ma Thida about three times or more.

    Coming from a family whose members were at different times and at different lengths of incarceration by the military government, each article about Ma Thida in prison brought back sad memories of my own family. I had to pause even in the middle of each article as such memories flooded my mind.

    From a very young age Ma Thida stand out among her contemporaries . A multifaceted person with deep attitudes and understanding of right and wrong, justice and injustice, tears welled up in my eyes reading what she went through in prison, and had to stop reading after going through some incidents described by her in the book.

    I am happy and very proud that she can be what she is now, an activist, feminist, author and running PEN Myanmar and many more.

    This book must be read in Burmese as in any other language, much would be lost in translation.

  • It’s a Small World

    by Hla Min

    Updated : Apr 2026

    The following illustrates “Six degrees of Separation” & “Associative Memory”.

    U Sein
    • Saya Sein taught Burmese at St. Paul’s High School. His students include U Thet Lwin (Ngwe Hlinne, composer of “Mya Kyun Nyo” song that was sung at the Opening Ceremony of Yar Pyay Ah Kyo)”. The song was first recorded as a “Dat Pya” at Myanmar Ah Than (Burma Broadcasting Service). It was first sung by U Mya Thein and group. It was also sung by the RIT Ah Nu Pyinnya Shins in Singapore (fondly known as the “Pon Chan Chan Group” led by Don Min U Yu Swan).
    U Thet Lwin
    • U Thet Lwin is the maternal uncle of Ko Sein Tin (SPHS68, EC74) who volunteered at UCC while waiting for permission to move to Australia.
    U Kyaw Sein (4th in Bottom row)
    • Saya Sein’s brother-in-law Saya Kyaw Sein was Class teacher for a different section. He taught us as a relieving saya.
    Dr. Soe Win
    • Saya Sein’s son Saya Dr. Soe Win (SPHS58) stood first in Burma in the Matric exam of 1958. He studied Chemistry Honors at RU and received his doctorate from Imperial College, University of London. He retired as Rector of YUFL.
    U Yu Khin & Richard Yu Khin
    • IFL (Institute of Foreign Languages) was co-founded by Saya U Yu Khin. He and Dr. Daw Phay are parents of Dr. Marie Yu Khin and Dr. Richard Yu Khin. IFL evolved into YUFL.
    • Dr. Daw Phay was personal physician of my paternal aunt (mother of U Tin U, U Ba Than, Dr. Ruby Win Hlaing, Daw Betty Myint Thwe, Dr. Myo Tint, U Tin Htoon, U Myo Min, U Thaung Lwin & Cho Cho Hlaing).
    • Ko Richard’s aunt was a close friend of Dr. Ruby.
    • Ko Richard won a Gold for Yatching at the 2nd SEAP Games with U Maung Maung Lwin (former Burma weight lifting champion, Commodore of Rangoon Sailing Club).
    • Ko Richard trained along side Ko Tin Maung Ni and swimming stars under the Japanese Swimming Coach Mr. Matsuda.
    U Myo Min
    • At SPHS, Dr. Soe Win was a classmate of my cousin Saya U Myo Min (UCC) and my brother-in-law U Khin Maung Htun (Patron of OPA). During his studies in the UK, Saya received help from U Mya Maung (Amyotha Yoke Shin) and U Myo Min.
    Aung Mion, Dr. Soe Win, Daw May Saw Lwin, Nyi Thet Lwin
    • I met Saya and Sayama Daw May Saw Lwin (MEHS57) during my visit to Myanmar from November 2019 to January 2020. Their elder son Ko Aung Mon attended TTC Practicing School together with my nephews and nieces. The younger son Dr. Nyi Thet Lwin is a surgeon in UK. Nyi Nyi’s daughter Ei Lwin achieved grade 9 in all of the nine subjects that she sat in the recent, 2019, GCSE exams. Following grandpa’s footsteps almost sixty years later!
    • Robert Sein (SPHS58) stood second in Burma in the Matric exam of 1958. He studied Physics Honors at RU. His classmates include Sayama Daw May Than Nwe (Joyce, spouse of Saya U Thein Lwin), Sayama Daw Khin Swe Aye (Emily, spouse of Saya U Hlwan Moe) and my sister Sayama Daw Khin Than Nwe. I met Ko Robert at the soon kwyay in memory of my brother-in-law.
    • Ko Robert’s sister (Wendy Sein) was our school mate at the last ever I.Sc.(A) at Leik Khone. Wendy’s spouse Dr. Thein Htut (RUBC Gold) rowed with our cousins at RUBC. Dr. Thein Htut’s sister Daw Tin Tin Aye was a close friend of my sister.
    • Daw Myint Myint Tin (Pearl Ba Tin, MEHS58) stood Third in the Matric exam of 1958. Her spouse Dr. Khin Mg Wint (SPHS58) was called “Sargalay” by his Paulian classmates.
    • Ma Pearl’s brother (Melvyn, U Myo Win, M/Ag65) taught Agricultural Engineering at RIT and at Wagga Wagga University in Australia. He managed the RIT Automobile Club. He rowed as a saya for RIT.
    • Ko Melvyn’s spouse Ma Noreen Aung Gyaw taught English at RU. Her brothers are H.E. U Nyi Than (spouse of Sayama Toni) and U Tin Aung Win (spouse of Dorothy Kyaw Tun).
    • Dorothy’s father U Kyaw Tun is a saya of our sayas. Her sister Elizabeth was my classmate at PPBRS.
    • Sargalay’s sister Audrey was a classmate of my sister-in-law at St. Philomena’s Convent.
    • Audrey’s spouse Michael Aye was a classmate of my cousins Myint Toe and Kyaw Nyunt Koe at SPHS.
