Moreover,he has been shocked when he was reported about the assassination of his men in frontlines.
But he has not been able to protect them even being the Chairman of the MTA.
He was given 5 million Bhat by Khun Sa, who needs Moe Haing and his senior politicians not to be involved with the MTA military affair, after being signed for the United Forces of the both sides.
