Maung Maung Ohn


Maung Maung Ohn is the current union minister for Information of Myanmar, and a member-elect of the Pyithu Hluttaw. He has served as the union minister of Hotels and Tourism from February 2021 to August 2021 and Chief Minister of Rakhine State, Myanmar from 2014 to 2016. He is a Myanmar Army general and former Deputy Minister of Home Affairs.
He replaced Hla Maung Tin, whose resignation was announced by Burmese state-run media on 20 June 2014. Maung Maung Ohn is an ethnic Burman, despite demands from the Rakhine National Party that the post be held by an ethnic Rakhine who is also an elected member of parliament and party member. Maung Maung Ohn was nominated by President Thein Sein for the post, and confirmed by the Rakhine State Hluttaw on 30 June.
Maung Maung Ohn ran and was elected as the Union Solidarity and Development Party candidate for Pyithu Hluttaw in Tatkon Township, Naypyidaw Union Territory, in the 2025–26 Myanmar general election, considered a sham process by independent observers.
