Charles De Gaulle 484 Posted November 27, 2022 This thread is for the infamous Myanmar dictator who is either 90 or 88 depending on which source you trust. Given how infamous his rule was there's a good chance he could wind up on the deathlist once his health starts to fail. Also knowing how much information there tends to be about Asian leaders when their health begins to fail I think they'll be a long, public decline before he goes. Which will provide thus thread with many posts. 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

He's a diabetic who's been rumored to suffer from intestinal cancer for decades , undergone treatment home and abroad and as far as I know has failed to make any appearances in years. Same for his wife, Kyaing Kyaing, who suffered a stroke and a fall in 2007 and was critically ill in 2008. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

arghton 6,745 Posted March 8, 2023 Than Shwe's wife Kyaing Kyaing awarded some major award, also awarded to the wives of his successor Thein Sein and deputy Maung Aye as well as the current dictator's wife. Apparently a sign that Than Shwe and Maung Aye still have some power over the current guy despite both of them having been in failing health for more than a decade. Than Shwe also made a rare public appearance around a week ago according to BBC Burmese. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Chinese ambassador visited Than Shwe, his old deputy Maung Aye and former president Thein Sein a week or two ago. They definitely hold a lot of power behind the scenes. There's a new image of Shwe in the article, he doesn't look particularly ill or frail at the moment. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
