Tin
Aung Myint Oo, 61, submitted his resignation on May 3 for health reasons
after returning from Singapore for medical treatment, the Myanmar
language service of Voice of America reported on Sunday.
The report could not be immediately confirmed.
Tin
Aung Myint Oo, a former four-star general, was one of two
vice-presidents and considered a leader among hardliners in the year-old
military-backed government that replaced the often-brutal junta who
ruled for half a century.
Tin
Aung Myint Oo graduated from the Defense Services Academy in 1970,
becoming northeastern military commander near the Chinese border late
1990s.
He was
promoted to Secretary-1 of the former junta in 1997, a year when the
army rounded up hundreds of pro-democracy activists in Aung San Suu
Kyi's National League for Democracy to prevent them from attending a
party congress.
Suu
Kyi and 42 other members of her party took their seats in parliament
last week following a historic by-election in a year of dramatic reforms
in the former British colony also known as Burma.
In
2009, Tin Aung Myint Oo was appointed military advisor to then-Senior
General Than Shwe. He was elected to the lower house a year later as a
candidate for the army-backed Union Solidarity and Development Party,
and was quickly nominated as vice president by military delegates.
