AS part of the 2024 Nationwide Census Collection, which runs from 1 to 15 October, State Ad­ministration Council Member Mahn Nyein Maung, accompa­nied by Ayeyawady Region Chief Minister U Tin Maung Win and other regional ministers, visited Myanaung District yesterday morning to observe the ongoing census activities.

 

The delegation first inspect­ed the door-to-door census col­lection efforts in Ywathit and Myoma wards in Kyangin. Later, they visited flooded farmlands in Talinekwin Village, Kyangin Township, to oversee the distri­bution of fertilizers and provide food supplies to flood-impacted farmers. In Ward 2 in Ingapu and Tahngazel Ward (South) in Hinthada, the SAC member and his team observed the census collection process, with sup­port teams assisting to ensure smooth communication, espe­cially with language barriers.

 

They also noted the active participation of residents. Fol­lowing inspections, the SAC member attended a meeting at the Hinthada Township Gener­al Administration Department, where he emphasized the impor­tance of public cooperation with relevant authorities to maintain regional stability and peace.

 

The chief minister then addressed the need to replant crops in the damaged fields and provided updates on recovery efforts. Additionally, the SAC member and officials distribut­ed paddy seeds and fertilizers to farmers from Hinthada, Zalun, and Laymyethna Townships, with SAC Member Mahn Nyein Maung delivering closing re­marks at the event. — MNA/KZL
