Maung O, Prince of Salin (also spelt Maung Oh, Burmese: စလင်းမင်းသားကြီး မောင်အို; ? – 12 May 1840), was a prince of the first rank of the Konbaung dynasty.[2] He was the brother of Nanmadaw Me Nu, the chief queen of King Bagyidaw. Favored by the king and queen, he was granted the appanage of Salin, Saku and Thamyintone with the title of Thado Maha Thudhamma Yaza.[3] He and Me Nu became the de facto rulers and are some examples of powerful figures who were the most powerful officials of their time.[4]
