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.

We built the temporary tents with their help for homeless families.
