Everyone at Burma Campaign UK is saddened to learn of the passing of Rimond Htoo, former General Secretary of the Karenni National Progressive Party.
Rimond Htoo was an inspiring and experienced political leader who stood firm on principle, opposing the divide and rule tactics employed by the Burmese military.
During his time in London, he became a friend and source of advice, always on top of new political developments and new technology. He was a modest man with no thought of personal gain, dedicating his life to the struggle for freedom for the Karenni people and for all the people of Burma.
We send our condolences to his family and friends. He will be missed.
