Who was Maluk Singh Sandhu?

Maluk was born on July 1, 1916 in a village named Chabba which is located in Sheikhupura.  Sheikhupura was in India before 1947, but is now located in Pakistan.  Maluk attended Khalsa Primary School which was located in Sheikhupura, Pakistan.  When he was 10 years old, he and his family moved to Burma (Myanmar).  Maluk attended Wesleyan Methodist Mission Boys High School and later attended the Intermediate College Mandalay where he received a Faculty of Arts (F.A).  In 1948, he received a Bachelor’s of Arts in English literature, History of Burma Commonwealth, and History of Burma and Far East from Rangoon University (now University of Yangon), which is located in Burma (Myanmar).

​

Maluk was an advocate for education. He encouraged his grandchildren and great-grandchildren to pursue higher education.  To him, education was one of the most valuable assets one can have.
