Sein Stine (Burmese: စိန်စတင်း, born Tin Aung, 9 January 1949 – 3 November 2019) was a Burmese Hsaing waing musician of the late twentieth and the early twenty-first century. He was one of the three hsaing musicians who have been awarded the title of Alinkar Kyawswa.[1]
Sein Stine was born to Mahn Delone and Naw Aye Chan at Danubyu Township, Ayeyarwady Region in 1949.[2]
He started performing hsaing at the commemoration ceremony of YMB Saya Tin at the age 16. Thereafter, he became popular until his death in 2019.[2]
He was posthumously awarded the title of Alinkar Kyawswa by the government of Myanmar on 4 January 2020, honoring his contributions to the field of hsaing industry.[1][3] On 4 January 2021, Sein Stine's son Sein Min Naing accepted the title on his behalf, at the ceremony conferring honorary titles by the President Win Myint.[4][5]
