Sagaing Operational Brief
WORLD FOOD PROGRAMME MYANMAR Sagaing Operational Brief OVERVIEW Sagaing Region is the second largest constituent unit of Myanmar with 5.3 million population, located in the north western part of the country. Sagaing Region consists of 8 districts, 37 townships and 1 Self Administered Zone1 (SAZ). The Region’s capital city is Sagaing, located on the Ayeyarwaddy River, 20 km southwest of the country’s famous Mandalay city where numerous Buddhist temples and monasteries exist. The Region abounds in natural resources, with the Ayeyarwaddy benefiting the local economy. Agriculture is the mainstay of the local economy, followed by livestock, fresh water fisheries, agro-industrial activity as well as natural resource extraction. The southern part is comparatively highly urbanized while infrastructure in the remote northern areas are poorly developed. Amongst other, Naga SAZ is the poorest, most isolated and least developed of Myanmar.2 In early 2014, the Government’s Department of Rural Development (DRD) and WFP carried out a food security survey, involving a total of 1,800 households from 150 villages in Sagaing. The survey was compartmentalized into three strata (i.e. north, south and centre) and discovered higher levels of hunger scale and diet inadequacy in the northern Sagaing. In July 2015, Sagaing was severely devastated by widespread flooding, triggered by heavy monsoonal rains and exacerbated by the tropical Cyclone Komen. Approximately 455,700 people across 26 townships were PARTNERSHIPS affected in addition to agriculture, livelihoods and infrastructures. Sagaing was declared as one of the Government Counterpart natural disaster zones by the President of Myanmar and Kale was identified as the worst affected Township of Ministry of Border Affairs (NaTaLa) Sagaing by the National Natural Disaster Management Committee afterwards.

Myanmar Situation Update (31 May - 6 June 2021)
Myanmar Situation Update (31 May - 6 June 2021) Summary The National Unity Government (NUG) held its very first press conference on Friday 4 June. The junta shut down the internet between 5 p.m. and 6 p.m to disrupt that press conference being held by the parallel government. The NUG said that it will announce a national D-Day to fight the military junta when the time is ripe at its press conference. The COVID-19 control collapsed after the coup as many health workers joined a civil disobedience movement to protest against the junta. COVID-19 infections have resurfaced in Myanmar amid post-coup turmoil with 767 new cases being found and seven deaths in the past seven days. The military junta has imposed stay-at-home orders on half of the Chin State’s townships as well as Kalay, Sagaing State. On 1 June, the junta forced the start of the new school year across the country. No more than a quarter of Myanmar's 12 million pupils enrolled for the new school year amid a protest boycott against military rule and in the wake of a series of bombings, an official of Myanmar Teachers’ Federation said. Security forces stood guard at some schools and brought pupils under armed escort from their homes1. Senior General Min Aung Hlaing, the chief of the coup, met with Brunei's Second Minister for Foreign Affairs Erywan Pehin Yusof and ASEAN Secretary General Lim Jock Hoi in Naypyitaw on Friday 4 June. He told ASEAN envoys elections will only come after the country returns to ‘normal’.
