Min Hla (Burmese: မင်းလှ, pronounced [mɪ́ɰ̃ l̥a̰]; also known as Min Hla Nge, မင်းလှငယ် [mɪ́ɰ̃ l̥a̰ ŋɛ̀], lit. 'Min Hla the Young'; 1417–1425) was king of Ava for three months in 1425. The eldest child of King Thihathu of Ava (r. 1421–1425) was only 8 when he was placed on the throne by the court, following the assassination of his father. The boy king too was assassinated three months later by Queen Shin Bo-Me, who had arranged his father's assassination. He was succeeded by Prince Nyo of Kale Kye-Taung, Bo-Me's lover.
