(Based on Staff posts from the IRRAWADDY NEWS in May 2023.)
With the nickname “The Contractor” given by his own
army officers he has given every Defense Department's building construction and maintenance
jobs to the conglomerate controlled by his son Aung Pyae Sone. The competitive
tendering process is conveniently ignored for every defense projects and MAH’s
family companies always win the tender regardless of how overly expensive and how
shoddy the reputation is.
Just first two months this year alone MAH's companies snatched 13 government projects worth 280 million US dollars. But our greedy MAH is not just happy with the billions of kyats regularly flowing into his pockets, he shamelessly committed the most atrocious corrupt crime by forcing all Myanmar servicemen and servicewomen to take out a scam life insurance from his family-owned insurance company “Aung Myintmo Min” privately owned by his son that notorious Aung Pyae Sone.
