As soon as we finish the distribution the rain stopped, then we headed to the another village , the distance would be 3 miles form Ngwe Nyi Naung .
We got two option to go there, one with the boat which will take 2 hrs and another on foot will take about 1hr.
We decided to go on foot through the fields which is a short cut.
All the way what we could see is nothing but a horizon, not even a small village.
We, all the volunteers and local people with us were very tired when we arrive the next village.
That village name is War Chaung situated in Set San group.
The village is wide and long along the creek, it has three groups.
As the pre-survey, we estimated the families and collected the homeless families.
Observation and social visit were being made and looked for the appropriate place for temporary tents.
As usual, we built the tents with the help of the locals and started distribution.
The local people said that "they have experiences in aid work, but our group is the special one"
wow! Think How we feel? Guess it.
We brought some water sample for the test and notes from the villages to our way back to Kwin Pone village.

Kwin Pone Village (Dount Gyi region) to Ngwe Nyi Naung village (Daunt Gyi region) Bogalay
We packed up our things and searched for the route for the next village Ngwe Nyi Naung village.
(Dount Gyi region).
With the help of the Kwin Pone villagers we went to Ngwe Nyi Naung village with tow small boats, along the small creek.
In some places, the people stepped down from the boats and pushed the boats in the creek.
With relief materials, we had to take nearly 2 hours to arrive Ngwe Nyi Naung.
As always, we made our observation and home visit to the whole village.
It was raining heavily when we started the meeting but we started to distribute the aid.
There were a lot of homeless who were shared to live with other people.
The amazing thing we saw all the way is Myanmar people can share their home and food with others as long as they could. They say it is good mind.
We built the tents for the homeless with the help of locals in the rain.

Bogalay to Kwin Pone Village (Dount Gyi region) Bogalay
We all haven't been there, only on the maps .The River is too wide for us.
We can see all the villages along the river were destroyed by the cyclone and the people with mourning faces, longing for helps.
According to the pre-survey data, we can’t help all the people.
We categorize the victims in three groups,
1. Person who is left alone or orphans
2. Homeless family
3. Ordinary
At 13:30 hour, we have arrived Kwin Pone village.
All the villagers were so glad by the sound of the relief aid.
They all approached to the boat and brought all the bags with eagerness.
We first set up a camp and stored our goods for distributions.
We made home visits and tried to learn about their situation.
We made a meeting with leaders of the villages and explained about our MVG and how we do the relief work.
We started the donations to one by one, family by family .
People were so happy and they said
"This is the first time they remember to smile after Nagris"
We took the rest to Kwin Pone village, it was 22:00 hour in late evening.
