After the cyclone Nargis had hit the Delta region in May 2008 leaving behind a
wave of destruction and death, Myanmar Development Aid and Uniteam
Marine Yangon (UMY) began in June 2008 with the reconstruction of a middle-
and-high school (6th to 10th grade) in the village of Kyet Pha Hmwe Zaung.
The work is in full swing.
For the construction of the new school building with a capacity up to
1200 children, a new location was chosen because the previous site was
already too small. The new school will comprise three buildings (each
36m x 9m x 4m) with a total of 16 rooms, one of which will be used by the
teaching staff and administration. In addition, two buildings, for separate
six girls’ and boys’ lavatories are planned.
