Lack of notability. Only reference is a government site. Enigma message 17:14, 28 April 2008 (UTC)

  • Keep. The site mentioned, while hosted on a government domain, is that of a newspaper, published by a company rather than a government department. No doubt the newspaper is close to the government, since Burma is a military dictatorship, but there is no reason to doubt the accuracy of this particular newspaper article. See http://www.mmtimes.com/no361/t001.htm for a later article from the same newspaper, hosted on its own domain. --Eastmain (talk) 23:04, 28 April 2008 (UTC)

  • Delete, unclear how he is notable. Stifle (talk) 18:49, 29 April 2008 (UTC)
  • Keep. This book says that he's one of the two most established actors in Burmese cinema. That sounds pretty notable to me, especially along with the Myanmar Times sources. Although that publication may not be the most reliable of sources for the political situation in Burma I see no reason to doubt its reliability as a source about actors.
