, Myanmar - A baby slept peacefully under a mosquito net oblivious to hundreds of evacuated flood victims lined up for food at a monastery in Myanmar on Saturday, all waiting for water levels to recede before they can return home.
Hundreds of families sat fanning themselves in an open-air hall at a monastery as volunteers distributed meal packs of rice and egg curry. “The space is tiny and there is not much space to sleep. We have to lie down next to each other,” she told AFP.Across the city, dogs scrambled onto Buddhist pagodas and steps to escape the flood water as rain pelted down.
Ms Lay Shwe Zin Oo, director of Myanmar’s social welfare, relief and resettlement ministry said that five people had died and as of Saturday 48,000 have been evacuated from Kachin, Karen, Chin, Rakhine, and Mon states and the Magway and Bago regions.“People are staying at monasteries, schools and other higher places.”
