He was
rewarded with the post of minister of defense in Ba Maw's puppet
government (1943-5).
In March 1945, in what amounted to a coup, he opportunistically
defected, together with the Burma National Army, to the Allies, and
worked closely with the British, whom he hitherto claimed to have been
fighting for independence.
When the war was over, he established a private militia, under his
commend - the People's Volunteer Organization. He proceeded to
negotiate Burma's independence from Britain and its first elections.
He was murdered - with his brother and four others - probably by a
political opponent, U Saw, in 1947.

C
Caesarean Section
Legend has it that Julius Caesar was cut out of his mother's womb
through the abdomen. In Latin, "caedere" means "to cut".
Caesarean section was mandated in case of the mother's death in the
"Roman Law" wrongly attributed to Numa Pompilius, the second of Rome's
seven kings (said to have ruled 715-673 BC). Stories during the
Renaissance describe "do it yourself" sections by anxious husbands.
