The Office of the Auditor General (Burmese: ပြည်ထောင်စုစာရင်းစစ်ချုပ်ရုံး; abbreviated OAG) is an independent government body that serves as the auditor of the Government of Myanmar (Burma). The Office of the Auditor General is currently held by Tin Oo.[1]

History

The Office of the Auditor General was first formally established during British rule, under the Burma Act of 1935.

State Law and Order Restoration Council replaced the Accounting Law, which established an Office of the Auditor General of the Union (OAG) that acts as the Secretariat of the Myanmar Accountancy Council, the nation's professional accountancy body.[3] OAG's functions are currently governed by the 2008 Constitution of Myanmar (Burma) and the Auditor General of the Union Law of 2010, which repealed the 1988 law.[2]
Thein Htaik died and a new auditor general, U Myo Myint, was appointed to the position in 2016.
