U Chang Zinzi, also known as Chan George Ram, Minister for Rawang Ethnic Affairs and elected representative from Putao Township in Kachin State in Myanmarโs 2020 elections, passed away on the night of November 27, at approximately 10 p.m. He died in Phimaw village, Chipwi Township, near the China border, and was 51 years old at the time of his passing.
He had been suffering from heart disease, and it is reported that his condition worsened due to extreme weather during active conflict, leaving him without timely medical care.
U Chang Zinzi had been present at the frontlines in the Chipwi, Tsawlaw, and Lanse battles, which are part of the Kachin Special Region (1). His health deteriorated in these areas, and while attempting to return to Laiza for medical treatment, he succumbed to his illness, according to U Sau Nwe Khun Saing Khan, a spokesperson for the Kagabu Peopleโs Force (KPF).
โHe started feeling unwell due to exposure to rain and the fatigue of traveling while at the frontlines. After securing Lanse in Tsawlaw Township, his health deteriorated over the next week. He was heading from Lanse to Phimaw to seek initial treatment, but his condition did not improve. He then tried to reach Laiza for further treatment but passed away before he could. He had been actively participating in the revolution alongside his comrades,โ said U Sau Nwe Khun Saing Khan.
From 2010 to 2013, he chaired the Rawang Literature and Culture Committee in Hpakant Township and served as a member of the Central Committee for Rawang Literature and Culture in Myanmar.

He became a leading committee member of the Kagabu Peopleโs Force (KPF) and also served as a member of the Kachin State Representative Committee (CRKH).
