Mirror U Thaung, respected journalist of Burma passed away

U Thaung (Aung Ba La)

Founder of The Mirror Daily, U Thaung was jailed and his newspaper confiscated by Myanmar’s dictatorship in 1964. Now in exile in the U.S., U Thaung has authored 26 books and still writes in support of democracy in his homeland.

Famous journalist Kyae Mone U Thaung (Aung Ba La) has passed away at the age of 82 from lung disease in the United States.

He had been hospitalized at the Florida Medical Center in the United States since March 10, being treated for tuberculosis and lung weakness. His condition continued to deteriorate from water entering the lungs.

Brief Biography of U Thaung

U Thaung was one of the most prominent victims of General Ne Win’s military regime, which ruled Myanmar (previously Burma) for more than a quarter of a century and transformed the country into one of the most secretive nations in the world. The chief editor of the Burma Times and The Mirror Daily before he was thrown into prison for three years for criticizing the regime, he was eventually forced to seek political asylum in the United States. He remains an outspoken critic of military rule in Myanmar, writing numerous articles, essays and books, and taking part in pro-democracy meetings around the world.
