  • Keep I disagree. The first one [1] (Moda Magazine) gives biographical information about his education and career: A student who sold potato chips, established Revo Tech in 2012 and was able to shape it into one of the largest digital companies in Myanmar within five years. He graduated from the UK with a degree in computer science and worked in the tech industry in Singapore for four years. Along with the successful Revo Tech, Akhayar Media, which was established in 2016, was also able to achieve a high viewing rate in Myanmar. The Second one [2] from The Myanmar Times (which is not mentioned in the article because the link is dead, I recovered it via wayback machine), that detailed information shows that he played an important role in the improvement and reform of Myanmar's technology sector (see also nytimes article). The third one [3] (Frontier Myanmar) gives fairly detailed information about his career. The fourth one [4] (Nikkei) meanders in topic somewhat but also includes biographical information about him. and also in Bagkok Post BABY SILICON VALLEY. I can go on if you'd like, but I don't think any of the sources I linked can be described as just passing mentions. He is the CEO of Revo Tech, a highly notable company and the country's biggest one (mentioned in the source). In general, CEOs of major companies or the country's largest companies like this are notable enough to have their own articles, so rewriting rather than merging would typically be the best choice. Other than the mention of the three recognitions, which can be removed or fixed later, I don't see how the rest of the article is a puff piece, as it just mentions the basic facts in a neutral way. There are enough reliable sources online to back up this biography, so some of the press release references can eventually be replaced with better sources later on. Overall, it fits into the scope of an online encyclopedia. Myanmar's tech industry remains modest due to long-term military rule, but he is the country's most renowned technopreneur and the only one who has earned local and international attention. Moreover, the person in question serves as an exemplary representation of the many young individuals in Myanmar who have a strong interest in the field of technology (Myanmar is not the United States). With the ever-growing influence of technology in today's world, there has been a surge in the number of Burmese youths looking to enter the tech industry and explore various avenues for growth and development in this field. [5], စွန့်ဦးလမ်းထွင် အရှိန်မြှင့် အစီအစဉ်. So, his notability will be determined by another local editor. Thanks Taung Tan (talk) 17:28, 7 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep and agree per Taung Tan. Technology industry in Myanmar is still in its infancy, and there are only few individuals who have made significant contributions and achieved notability in this field. The subject is among one of the pioneers and has made significant contributions to the field, making him a worthy subject for an article on Wikipedia..
