A passenger bus running from Yangon to Kyaukphyu overturned near Kalar Pone village in Ramree Township at about 5 a.m. on January 20, killing four people and injuring six others, according to a Kyaukphyu funeral services charity group.
The bus, named Myo Satt Thit, overturned at a bend near Kalar Pone village while travelling from the commercial capital Yangon to Kyaukphyu.
“We don’t know yet where the corpses will be brought. The injured were sent to Sanae Hospital. They [the injured] don’t need to be worried about,” said Ko Japan Gyi from the Kyaukphyu charity group.
