the traditional ways, according to the government-run Myanma Alinn
report.
Gon-min-ai monastery in Kanni village-tract in Toungoo Township in
Bago Region has the length of 180 ft, laying from south to north.
Villagers who volunteered in the effort employed 32 bullock carts and
125 labours.

wreck by the evening on February 14, according to the report.

to a new venue.
