Prof. of English Literature at Rangoon Univ + mention of Miss Virginia Geiger


I still wish I had followed U Myo Min's advice, and taken English Literature.

I went to see him, as he asked to see me.  I had taken E Lit as well as Burmese Lit for 2 years in college.  I remember some of the lecturers, most notable Raymond Adlam from the British Cuncil.

I told U Myo Min I could read English on my own, but I couldn't read Economics, so I was taking Ecos.

I can still see him shaking his head.

In 2004 I found he had written a beautiful obituary for my father U Kaung.
