Chiang Mai (Mizzima) – The Burmese military junta supremo Snr Gen Than Shwe’s grandson Pho La Pyea is said to be taking flying lessons, according to eyewitnesses.

The pampered grandson, Pho La Pyea (alias) Nay Shwe Thway Aung, reportedly flew his grandfather’s private Russian-made helicopter from the Meikhtila airbase and landed n Bagan town, sources said.

The white helicopter was gifted to Snr Gen Than Shwe by his close friend and business crony Tayza, sources in the military said.
