When I started to serve here, the transportation was very difficult. When we came from Sittwe to Inn Din, we had to sleep one night at Angumaw and we can arrive Inn Din only in the morning. But now it takes only 45 minutes from Angumaw to Inn Din.

When the road is completed, I think 70% to 80% of goods will be moving from this road.

I would like to say that we welcome the assistance. UEHRD project was led by government, especially the State Counsellor.

Now, this road is being constructed and it only takes one hour between Maungtaw and Kyauk Pandu and the same for Angumaw. So, I am very pleased it happened to us. I have never thought about it in my life. Now, Asia World Company came to build a road for us and I am very thankful about it.

Passengers can travel more smoothly after the completion of this road. We have plans to reduce the bus charges too. It will only cost 7,000 kyats from current cost 10,000 kyats.

As the transportation is easier, education is no more a difficulty for villages without schools as the children can easily go to schools nearby.
