THE Ayeyawady Foundation, actively involved in relief efforts across earthquake-affected ar­eas, is taking responsibility for restoring the SunU Ponnyashin Pagoda in Sagaing, which was damaged by the recent earth­quake.

 

The foundation began clear­ing debris and repairing the site using heavy machinery and cranes. Since the earthquake struck on 28 March in Man­dalay Region, the Ayeyawady Foundation has been supporting relief, recovery and rebuilding efforts. This includes donating free fuel for rescue equipment and ambulances, refuelling ma­chines on-site, repairing dam­aged roads, and providing aid to those affected.

 

The foundation also donat­ed essential supplies such as food, drinking water and person­al items, and swiftly built tem­porary hospitals in Mandalay and Sagaing with a combined capacity of 430 beds for the in­jured. The foundation continues to work with relevant organi­zations to clean up and restore affected areas. — Shine Htet Zaw/KZL
