Thura Linn Htet

Our BurSoc may be small compared to many other societies at UCL, but that’s exactly what makes us such a close-knit community. So, it’s crucial that we maximise the value of every pound or kyat we receive and allocate our budget in ways that genuinely benefit our members. As someone who has been surviving the quantitative rigour of UCL Economics so far, I understand how important it is to work carefully with data and numbers—because even a tiny mistake can lead to unnecessary chaos. As a treasurer, my core values will be transparency and accountability. I’m committed to keeping our financial records clear and accessible, so members always know how their contributions are being used. Whether it’s organising cultural celebrations like Thingyan or Thadingyut, supporting welfare initiatives such as earthquake relief fundraising, or funding collaborative events with other societies, I believe responsible financial management helps us do more, not less. Last but not least, Burmese Society, under my term as a treasurer, shouldn’t simply just remain stable, which in Economics we call stagnation (meaning no progress, just standing still), but should continue to grow both financially and institutionally over time.

Kyay Zuu Pr!
