    Sayagyi U Ba Than was born on October 2, 1930 (Thursday).

    He usually celebrates his birthday by offering soon at a monastery and inviting his former colleagues and students to the soon kyway.

    There was a “special” gathering for Sayagyi’s 78th birthday in 2008. October 2, 2008 falls on a Thursday.

    Maung Sein Win (Padeegone) wrote a poem for Sayagyi.

    Sayagyi handed out his “memoirs” to the attendees and a hand-written “message” to his former students.

    Secretaries of RIT Civil Engineering Association

    His contributions include :

    • Publisher of the MES Technical Digest
    • Chair of the SPZP-2012 Preparation/Implementation Committee and Head of four (or so) subcommittees including Logistics and Security
    • Chief Editor of the Commemorative Issue of “Swel Daw Yeik Magazine” for SPZP-2012
    • Publisher of limited reprints of the 20+ RIT Annual Magazines
    • Founder and moderator of “bitritalumni” Facebook Page.

    I visited Yangon twice in 2012.

    During my first visit, he hosted a welcome dinner at Feel restaurant to meet U Ohn Khine, Saya U Aung and several alumni. His son-in-law gave us a ride. He gave me an autographed copy of “Selected Cartoons from RIT Magazines and Set Hmu Thadinzin” and told me that a commemorative issue will be published by four (or more) generations of famous “RIT Cartoon Box” cartoonists (some who made to national and international fame).

    During my second visit, he gave a ride to attend the SPZP-2012 Preparation Meeting.

    He posted me via air mail some MES Technical Digests.

    Despite having medical problems and several visits to ICU, he gave 100% for the success of RIT-related projects in general, and SPZP-2012 in particular.

    Sad to learn that he passed away.

    Glad to know that his works live on.
