MYANMAR Muslim Aid (MMAID) has reported that it is constructing four temporary shelters for people affected by the earthquake in Mandalay.

 

The temporary housing camps in Aungmyaythazan Township are being constructed on a plot of land measuring 400 feet by 120 feet for Temporary Shelter 1, with approximately 80 houses and 25 latrines being built in each camp.

 

In addition, Temporary Shelter 2 will be constructed near the ongoing construction of Temporary Shelter 1, with plans underway to build Temporary Shelters 3 and 4, according to MMAID.

 

Local committees will screen and approve families tru­ly in need of housing to live in the temporary shelters. Currently, approximately 60 workers are working tirelessly to construct the shelters for those affected by the Mandalay earthquake, ensuring they can move in as soon as possible. — ASH/TH
