A newly-retired general who is the brother-in-law of prominent business tycoon U Aung Ko Win has been appointed a vice-governor of the junta-controlled Central Bank of Myanmar (CBM).

Major General Zaw Myint Naing was named as one of the bank’s three vice-governors in a shake-up of the CBM’s board. He is married to Daw Tin Tin Ohn, a sister of U Aung Ko Win, who is the chairman of Kanbawza Bank, the biggest private bank in Myanmar.

In the reshuffle, CBM governor U Than Nyein and vice-governor U Win Thaw lost their jobs, while vice-governor Daw Than Than Swe was promoted to governor. Daw Than Than Swe was shot in April by anti-coup resistance fighters at her house in Yangon’s Bahan Township.
