Myanmar Junta Ministries Plan Yangon Relocation After Quake

Some Myanmar junta ministries are planning to relocate to Yangon as around 80 percent of Naypyitaw’s government buildings and staff apartments were reportedly wrecked by the March 28 earthquake.

The earthquake killed an unknown number of regime staff and damaged the presidential residence, parliament and left several ministries unusable.

The ministries of foreign affairs, hotels and tourism, immigration and population, and commerce and the Central Bank are reportedly relocating.
