The post-flood cleanup measures underway yesterday in Nay Pyi Taw Council Area.

Relief and rehabilitation measures are actively taking place in wards and villages impacted by floods across various states and regions, including the Nay Pyi Taw Council Area.
Yesterday, Tatmadaw members, along with police, firefighters, Red Cross members, volunteers, and the public, engaged in relief efforts such as cleaning up debris and removing fallen tree branches from roads, bridges, and various facilities, including monasteries, schools, hospitals, clinics, and departmental buildings. These efforts were concentrated in Zeyathiri, Pyinmana, Tatkon, Lewe, and Pobbathiri Townships within the Nay Pyi Taw Council Area, as well as Kalaw Township in southern Shan State, and Loikaw and Loilemlay in Kayah State.
Additionally, healthcare activities and health education sessions were conducted at temporary relief camps. Donations of supplies, clothing, food, and money were made by Tatmadaw families (Army, Navy, and Air), departmental personnel, associations, and generous individuals to support those affected by the floods. On the same day, Lt-Gen Phone Myat from the Office of the Commander-in-Chief (Army), along with Commander Maj-Gen Soe Min of the Nay Pyi Taw Command, visited Thitkhaukkhwa Village in Lewe Township, where they encouraged flood-impacted residents and donated rice, food, and K10,000 to each household. They also visited the Thukharama Monastery in the village to make offerings to the Sayadaw.
Similarly, Commander Maj-Gen Zaw Min Latt of the Eastern Command and his officers visited the Ottarayon Pariyatti Monastery in Loikaw Township, Kayah State, where they provided assistance to flood-stricken individuals by donating rice, edible oil, and food. On 19 September, they continued their support by delivering rice, oil, and food to flood victims.
Temporary iron frame Bailey bridges are being constructed to replace those destroyed by the floods, enabling road and bridge access for transportation as quickly as possible. — MNA/TMT
