Khin Nyunt

General Khin Nyunt (born October 11, 1939 in Kyauktan, Burma) was the Prime Minister of Myanmar and the chief of intelligence of the Myanmar Army. He was appointed Prime Minister in August 2003. On October 18 2004 he was dismissed and put under protective custody, apparently the result of a power struggle with Than Shwe about how to treat Aung San Suu Kyi. Khin Nyunt favoured a more liberal treatment, while Than Shwe is considered to be a hardliner. Recent developments at the end of 2004 turned out that Khin Nyunt was purged by the Generals who favour Than Shwe and would not want to negotiate with Aung San Suu Kyi's NLD party, which won the election in 1990 in a landslide vistory.
