Bo Mya passed away at 79




Gen. Bo Mya, a longtime leader of Myanmar's largest guerrilla group, died on 24.12.2006

Bo Mya died at a private hospital in western Thailand near the Myanmar border, according to the group's spokesman, David Thaw.

He  was buried on Tuesday at his last Thai-Burmese border-based stronghold, Pu Bo Mya Plaw (also know as Mu Aye Pu).About 10,000 people—both friend and foe—attended the funeral, including Thai army officers and a Burmese army representative, Col Myat Htun Oo.

 

Gen Bo Mya, life-long freedom fighter and for 24 years leader of the Karen National Union, died on Sunday morning at a hospital in the Thai border town Mae Sot. The 79-year-old general had been suffering from diabetes and age-related illness.
