Timeline
Chit Po was born in February 1908 in Tavoy (Dawei), Tenasserim Division.
She was 41 (in her 42nd year).
She married Corporal Hla Maung (a cook in No.1 Military Engineer Battalion), in Maymyo (Pyinoolwin) in 1947.
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.
She gathered intelligence on the Karen National Defence Organisation (KNDO) on behalf of the Myanmar Military before she was caught and executed by the KNDO insurgents.
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.
On 16 May 1949, her body was buried in a military ceremony.
Chit Po was posthumously awarded the Thura Medal in 1950.
She is still the only female recipient of the medal; 516 medals have been awarded to men.
Her name is inscribed on the Memorial to the Fallen Heroes (Nay Pyi Taw) in Naypyitaw.
Chit Po is the subject of Maymyo Chit Swe's biographical book Thura Ma Phit Po (မြန်မာ့သမိုင်းတွင် တစ်ဦးတည်းသော သူရဘွဲ့ရအမျိုးသမီး သူရမချစ်ပို), first published in 2014.
A statue of Chit Po was erected in the Friday Garden in her hometown of Launglon Township, Dawei District, in 2017.
The sculptor was Maung Kyaw; the statue is over two metres tall, and shows Chit Po holding a machete and a bag of grenades.
In the Hall of Tanintharyi Region, Ma Chit Po is memorialized with a bronze bust.
The 110th anniversary of Chit Po's birth was commemorated in Pyin Oo Lwin in February 2018, organised by the Pyin Oo Lwin Township Writers' Association.
