Who will be the next junta's leader after his death? Have you ever seen his smile? What a poor leader of oligarchs! His descendants will be definitely treated like Ne Win the Black Sheep's grandsons. Maung Reel, Bangkok. July 25,2007

Is it true that his daughter got pregnant with assassinated Tin Oo's son? If it is true, he will be a very generous Oligarch. Khin Nyunt wants compensation for imprisoning him. Zaw Naing Oo and Ye Naing Win are strong and smart men. Does Than Shwe still have unmarried daughters? But Khin Nyunt's sons don't mind for giving his granddaughters pregnant. He still owes a lot to Mynit Aung, Kyaw Ba, and Tun Kyi too. Maung Reel, Bangkok. July 26,2007

Wikipedia, we have no voice inside Burma so allow us to write freely. Even James Poniewozik of Time wrote strong comment on George Bush for his pottymouth. "But to free speechers, after this court ruling, you are the f---ing man." James Poniewozik, Time June 25, 2007. Page.92 Maung Reel, Bangkok.

He gave orders to kill monks and protesters in Burma during bloody crackdown on September protests. Hell is waiting for him. Maung Reel, Bangkok. December 19,2007

I have reverted two vandalism edits made by 64.134.10.66, which added non-informative epithets to the entry.

Doubtful Than Shwe's mental history
First of all, I want to made clear that I hate Than Shwe and all the SPDC and Myanmar Military leaders.

But his article in Wiki statement below is not correct or actually not mentioned in its reference. Just compare the following_

Than Shwe was born in Kyaukse, Mandalay Division. He enlisted in the army, where he spent several years in the psychiatric hospital, being treated for post traumatic stress after having served in the operations against KNDO (Karen National Defence Organisation) insurgents between 1948 and the early '50s.[1]= Brown, Kerry. "Paranoid, insular and inept, the junta has no Plan B", The Guardian, 28 September 2007, p.37

It was actually written in the reference that_

Seventeen years on, the Burmese junta is headed by Than Shwe, a 74-year-old general with minimal experience of the outside world, who served in the army's psychological warfare department during the first campaign against Karen rebels in the 1940s, before rising through the ranks and becoming head of state in 1992.

I do not mean that he had no mental problem, it was wrong or may be I could not find that fact.

I wish that he was and is really mad.

UN Reminds the Junta of another revolution (DVB)

The first time this blogger searched about the unknown biography of Than Shwe, the blogger immediately found out that he had mental illness in his early Military Carrier. However, this blogger has failed to fix the missing parts of Jigsaw puzzle until the news of mental illness started circulating in the Internet.

It is widely accepted that Than Shwe has suffered from “stress” according to the Chinese authorites who visited him recently.

Internet blog of Moe Thee Zun reported recently citing the internal sources, Than Shwe became depressed after the collapse of the support of the Buddha’s Statue in his home. He became more nervous and anxious after witnessing the death of 28 Coconut Trees, which were planted as Yadayar to avoid the bad omen by the advice of His Sooth Sayers.

According to Irrawady news, excerpt of his ill health is as follows

“One source told The Irrawaddy that Than Shwe had been depressed by a report by the head of the United Nations Development Programme in Burma, Charles Petrie, who was expelled from Burma recently. The report highlighted the junta’s economic failures and mismanagement.

Rumors of Than Shwe’s ill health also circulated among Burmese living in Singapore, where members of the junta usually seek medical attention. Despite his reluctance to leave the country, for fear of a coup in his absence, Than Shwe traveled to Singapore in January this year for treatment at Singapore General Hospital.”--Darz kkg (talk) 16:05, 8 December 2007 (UTC)

Project removal
I have removed an improperly placed project tag from this page. Factual accuracy matters. Myanmar is not considered totalitarian but authoritarian by political scientist. Maglev Power (talk) 01:33, 6 March 2008 (UTC)
 * As a number of users have pointed out before, the point of a WikiProject is to bring editors interested in similar topics together. They do not exist to say that Myanmar is considered one way or the other, unlike categories on the article page. BigHaz - Schreit mich an 05:01, 6 March 2008 (UTC)

State Supreme Council
What's with the State Supreme Counicl, which is not mentioned in the new constitution but should be headed by Than Shwe. --SamWinchester000 (talk) 17:45, 9 October 2016 (UTC)
