Singu Min, Burmese king (b. 1756)
Singu Min (Burmese: စဉ့်ကူးမင်း, pronounced [sɪ̰ɰ̃ɡú mɪ́ɰ̃]; 10 May 1756 – 14 February 1782) was the fourth king of the Konbaung dynasty of Myanmar.The King, who came to power amid controversy, largely put an end to his father Hsinbyushin's policy of territorial expansion, which had severely depleted the kingdom's manpower and resources. He stopped his father's latest war against Siam at his accession, effectively ceding Lan Na to the Siamese. Likewise, he took no action when the Laotian states stopped paying tribute in 1778. The only campaigns were in Manipur, where the Burmese army was forced to put down four rebellions during his reign.
The king is best remembered for the 22,952-kilogram (50,600 lb) Maha Ganda Bell, which he donated in 1779. Singu was overthrown on 6 February 1782 by his cousin Phaungka and was executed by his uncle Bodawpaya eight days later.
