ACADEMY Award-winning actor Khant Sithu and his family donated K10 million to support monks from remote borderlands and mountainous areas on 1 January.
The donation event was held at the Kantha Dhamma Yeiktha Monastery in Botahtaung Township, Yangon, according to Khant Sithu.
The donation was intended to assist monks in distant regions who face challenges in receiving sufficient food and supplies. It also included offerings and donated items for the Kantha Dhamma Yeiktha Monastery, bringing the total donation amount to K150 million.
“We have donated robes, bedsheets, blankets, and cash to the Sayadaws at Kantha Dhamma Yeiktha Monastery. The donation also includes K10 million specifically for monks in remote borderlands and mountainous areas where transport is difficult. We share these good merits with others,” Khant Sithu explained.
Additionally, on 15 November 2024, Khant Sithu offered a Mathoe robe at the Botahtaung Pagoda, where he also served as the primary donor of the Wunnapaba loom. — ASH/TMT
