Does not meet WP:GNG, being a member of the Advisory Board of State Administration Council is not automatic grounds for inclusion. Onel5969 TT me 22:14, 31 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]

  • Weak keep: This would have to pass through WP:GNG. It has a chance if more sources can be found, as his position as Minister of Security and Border Affairs of Rakhine State during the Rohingya Genocide is certainly a special instance and some English-language sources ([1] [2]) show he played at least some role in the genocide. However, while several English language sources exist, most are just passing mentions or one sentence interviews. Burmese-language sources very likely exist, however, I'm unable to find them because Google seems to struggle searching that language. Curbon7 (talk) 22:34, 31 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep, Two out of three references present are WP:SIGCOV, establishing notability per GNG. Clear notability established. --Whiteguru (talk) 22:54, 31 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Strong Keep What the hell Afd? He is a minister of state. A member of the Advisory Board of State. Advisory Board is the union level goverment position equivalent to the Advisor of the President's Office of Myanmar [3]. Advisory Board members are Presidential advisors!!! Very very clearly passes WP:NPOL as Politicians and judges who have held international, national, or (for countries with federal or similar systems of government) state/province–wide office, or have been members of legislative bodies at those levels. This also applies to people who have been elected to such offices but have not yet assumed them. He has held two state level gov posts. How much do you need? I'll report you at ANI for unresearched AfDs by new page reviewer. Other Burmese editors and experienced editors will decide he is notable or not? How Fanny!

Because of the current situation in Myanmar, I'm one of the four only Burmese Editors on English Wikipedia. Onel5969 You are trying to delete Burmese political articles that these are clearly notable (one of them Yin Yin Oo who has held two major gov posts as deputy director general of the Foreign Ministry of Myanmar and Presidential advisor), when senior Burmese Editors retired. Sorry you can't I've full knowledge on my country's politic. Taung Tan (talk) 04:23, 1 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]
