Family members of prominent Burmese singer May Sweet said that the singer is in sound health and is planning her schedule to visit London next month to perform at a Burmese New Year festival celebration.

A family member of May Sweet in Rangoon, who claims to have talked over telephone to the Burmese singer during the weekend, said, "She is very much in good health and is still in the United States. But she told me that she will be visiting London next month."

The confirmation from family members came hours after a news report said the prominent Burmese signer had died in a car accident in London.

However, when Mizzima contacted the staff at the Ealing Hospital, they denied having any patient or a body brought in with the name.
