Khamti, 29 April
Representatives from Daw Khin Kyi Foundation donated humanitarian aid to the needy people in remote areas in Khamti Township, Sagaing Region on 27 April, said Ko Aung San Myint, one of the volunteers.
Khamaung Village is located 86 miles long from Khamti Township while Mathtaung Village is 91 miles away from Khamti Township. Both villages are hard-to-reach areas and local people solely rely on their shifting cultivation. Food security became a growing challenge for local people due to poor production of their crop plantations affected by pests. This problem impeded socio-economic development of local people.
90 households from two villages have been provided with rice bags, legumes and salt packets by the community workers from Daw Khin Kyi Foundation.—Win Oo (Zeyar Taing)
