[edit] Death

The article doesn't mention his death at all - the latest information comes from May 18th, and the only indication comes from the death date in the infobox and the use of the past tense. There should at least be some information regarding the circumstances etc. Ygoloxelfer 19:17, 3 October 2007 (UTC)

So far, the majority of reports of his death seem to stem from this Mizzima report. Another website, The Irrawaddy is more cautious and can't independently confirm the news. Nonetheless, other news outlets, such as The Nation, and Asia News have picked up the Mizzima report. Another report from Meri News also has the news. — WiseKwai 20:15, 3 October 2007 (UTC)
The BBC, among hundreds of others, have got it this time, so this one seems legit. Cheers, CP 13:56, 12 October 2007 (UTC)
