Day 9 (11th May 2008)
Maw La Myaing Kyun
Arrived Maw Kyun around 11am.
Aids are found as soon as our boat approached the port.
Less Damage was found than Bokalay.
People seem more stable than Bokalay but afraid to help outsider coz of officials.
Fortunately, Maw Kyun got clean water.
We meet with locals and found out refugee were forced to send back to villages by ship yesterday.
Local volunteer were upset and angry for sending refugee back and worried for the shelters if rain comes.
Refugee were distributed with little food before they send back
People who didn’t left the villages were also angry for sending back the refugee while they are short of food supply and didn’t let the ship to anchor to the bank.
After having lunch we arranged to leave the Maw Kyun.
Unfortunately, the boat engine has broken so we headed back.
