Thura Ma Chit Po (သူရ မချစ်ပို; February 1908 – 8 April 1949) was a Burmese woman who was the one and only civilian woman to have received the Thura medal for bravery.

In 1949, the Myanmar Military (Tatmadaw) was fighting against the insurgent group called Karen National Defence Organisation (KNDO).

One of the issues the Tatmadaw had was a lack of access to intelligence.

Chit Po, using a variety of disguises, which included a helmet, a cane for herding cows and a sleeping bag, entered the KNDO camp and reported back enemy artillery positions.

Shortly afterwards, Chit Po was arrested, interrogated, and killed by the KNDO on 8 April 1949.
