Sanay Min
Sanay Min was the 13th king of Toungoo dynasty of Burma who reigned from 1698 to 1714. Sanay ascended to throne after his father Minye Kyawhtin died in 1698. Sanay was - like his father - ineffectual, and the power of Toungoo dynasty continued to decline.
Early life
Sanay Min was born to King Minye Kyawhtin and his queen Sanda Dewi c. April 1673. He was given Dabayin in fief, and was known as Debayin Mintha in his youth. He was made heir apparent on 8 September 1688.Reign
In 1707, Sanay brought Muslim prisoners of war from Sandoway and settled them in Myedu. Three thousand Muslims from the weakening Kingdom of Mrauk U took refuge under his rule from 1698–1714. These refugees were divided and settled in Taungoo, Yamethin, Nyaung Yan, Yin Daw, Meiktila, Pin Dale, Tabet Swe', Bhodhii, Syi Tha, Siputtara, Myae du and Depayin.Sanay Min also had two flotillas, named Elahee and Selamat, both Arabic Islamic names. These ships were recorded to have called at Forte St. George. The Elahee was used to send for missionaries exchanged between the Mughal Empire and the Burmese kingdom, being captained by an Arab. The diplomatic relations between the Court of Ava and Muslim Court of the Moghul began in 1706 A.D., with an exchange of gifts recorded by the English factory in Madras.
