MONGLA Special Region (4) donated K100 million to the Peace Commission to be used in the COVID-19 treatment, yesterday morning in the National Reconciliation and Peace Centre in Yangon.

At the donation ceremony, Chairman of the Peace Commission Dr Tin Myo Win said Myanmar has the third-highest COVID-19 cases in Southeast Asia, and it is the time for every citizen to take responsibility for the treatment and containment of the disease. He added the donation by the Mongla Special Region (4) is the necessary help during the crisis and helping to fight against the disease is also the act of peacemaking by the Commission.

The ceremony was also attended by the officials from the Peace Commission and the Ministry of Health and Sports.
