Narrative

Full Description

Project narrative

On January 10, 2018, the handover of the water purification facilities and the completion ceremony of the expansion of Naungmon Kindergarten was held. For this project, the Chinese Embassy donated water purification facilities to Nanshan Village, and expanded Naungmon Kindergarten and built new bathrooms for the school in Naungmon Township. These projects were part of the welfare program in Shan State initiated by the Chinese Embassy. This program was implemented by the China Foundation for Poverty Alleviation and Myanmar Peace and Development Foundation. To support this initiative, the Chinese Embassy committed USD 90,000. Apart from the above two projects, the welfare program also included the donation of desks and chairs, computers, sewing machines, and bedding blankets. The project was expected to help local villagers get clean drinking water and promote local education and economic development of Shan State, in the northeast of Myanmar. This project is completed.
