Is it time to take a legal action on Mya Myat Tun ( San Francisco)?

Dear Ko Moe Thee,

I am Burmese living in San Francisco. I feel guilty for betraying my mother land by being loyal to a friend. I am going to share what I know about my friend Mya Myat Tun in order to get a relief from that guilt.

Mya Myat Tun is 45 years old. She is the eldest sister of Aye Tun, who is son-in-law of retired general Kyaw Ba. She lives in San Francisco. She exports luxury cars and other items for Tay Za. In 1997, while US sanctions were already implemented, she sent three Mercedes sedans to Burma for general Kyaw Ba. During that time, Kyaw Ba was purged from the regime and Aye Tun had to get help from Tun Naing Shwe ( General Than Shwe’s son) to get the necessary permits for the cars. In return, Tun Naing Swe got one Mercedes sedan with a discounted price. Another one was sold to Wai Lwin, who got a permit to sell SONY equipment.

Mya Myat Tun travels to Burma quite frequently. She owns Thayapa hotel in Pagan and also a hotel in the capital Naypyitaw. Thanda Nay Win, daugher of famous actor Collegian Nay Win is also a shareholder in those hotels. She exports all luxury items and cars to Burma for Tay Za. Even though US has imposed sanction on Burma, people like Mya Myat Tun are helping the regime to escape the sanctions. What a selfish person!

Her brother Htin Paw Htun visited her while he was serving in Burmese Navy as a captain. He applied for asylum and it was granted while he was visiting here. Once his asylum was granted, he traveled to Thailand holding a refugee travel document. Then he crossed into Burma and got a new Burmese passport. Once he finished his business in Burma, he came back to Thailand using his newly acquired Burmese passport. He then used his refugee travel document to come back to the US. There are a lot of people like him too. Unfortunately, some activists in the democracy movement helped them get asylum. I encourage you to investigate things like this and expose it.

I request you to initiate a campaign to take action on people like Mya Myat Tun.

Here is more news about Mya Myat Tun by a Burmese citizen. She went to Singapore on October 28th, 2007 to meet Tay Za’s contact. She stayed at a $ 750/night suite at Hilton hotel. She is back in San Francisco now. She met Min Min Aung, a close associate of Tay Za. Min Min Aung is also responsible for importing oil and petroleum products for Burmese regime. The purpose of her visit is to do money laundering for Tay Za.

US has imposed economic sanctions on Burma since 1997. Mya Myat Tun is not only helping the regime but obviously breaking US law. This is time to ask the US government to enforce the existing law. We ask all Overseas Burmese to help us in bringing her to court.
