Funerals for two Myanmar nationals who died in Malaysia held jointly

Two Myanmar nationals, one of whom succumbed to a stomach disease while seeking a Certificate of Identity (CI) for repatriation, had their funerals concurrently held in Malaysia, according to the Lovely Heart Philanthropic Myanmar Youth Blood Donor Group based in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia.
Maung Phyo Thet Aung, 18, from Maubin Township in Ayeyawady Region, died of stomach disease while he was applying for CI to return to Myanmar due to illness.
Another deceased person was Ko Thet Tun Naing, 32, from Myingyan Township in Mandalay Region. He died on arrival at the hospital after suffocating at his workplace in Malaysia.
Families and friends of the two deceased persons asked the group for help, which is why they assisted in holding funerals at 1 pm on 3 April at Cheras cemetery.
