NATURAL disasters, such as earthquakes, strike without warning, leaving behind devastation, loss, and trauma. Homes are destroyed, families are displaced, and lives are changed forever. In such difficult times, it becomes our moral responsibility to stand together in compassion, unity, and action.
Supporting earthquake-affected communities is not just an act of kindness, it is a duty of humanity.
THE square and main temple of the Inlay PhaungdawOo Pagoda, which was affected by the recent Mandalay earthquake, will be repaired before the upcoming Pagoda Festival, according to the Inlay Pagoda Board of Trustees.
The earthquake damaged several key structures, including the main temple, the pagoda square, the Karaweik-shaped barge, and the buildings where it is docked.
THE earthquake that struck Mandalay on 28 March caused widespread damage across the Nay Pyi Taw Council Area, Sagaing Region, Mandalay Region, Magway Region, Shan State, and Bago Region. In response, the government initiated urgent measures to assess the impact, conduct rescue and relief operations, and facilitate the delivery of humanitarian aid from abroad.
