Mawlamyinekyun, 24 March

An inauguration ceremony of a concrete road which was built on a self-reliant basis was held in Mawlamyinekyun Township, Ayeyawady Region this morning.

Firstly, those present received the “Five Precepts” from the Buddhist monks and shared merits gained. Next, the ward administrator and road construction committee members opened the new road by cutting a ceremonial ribbon. Construction of the road took one month and was completed on 25 September 2018.

The 180 ft. long, 24 ft. wide road is of concrete type and was constructed at a cost of more than Ks. 60 million contributed by well-wishers and residents.—Aung Aung (IPRD)
