The successful planning and implementation of the census activities, followed by the timely release of the provisional results in August 2014 and now the main results in May 2015, is a clear testimony of the Government’s resolve to publish all information collected from respondents in accordance with the Population and Housing Census Law No. 19 of 2013. It is my hope that the main census results will be interpreted correctly and will effectively inform the planning and decision-making processes in our quest for national development. The census structures put in place, including the Central Census Commission, Census Committees and Offices at all administrative levels and the International Technical Advisory Board (ITAB), a group of 15 experts from different countries and institutions involved in censuses and statistics internationally, provided the requisite administrative and technical inputs for the implementation of the census.

  • Magway Operational Brief WFP Myanmar
    Magway Operational Brief WFP Myanmar Overview Magway Region with 3.9 million, representing 7 percent of the country’s population, is located in the central part of Myanmar, bordering with Sagaing Region in the north, Mandalay Region in the east, Bago Region in the south and Rakhine and Chin States in the west. Despite largest land area, economically, it is one of the poorest regions in Myanmar due to lack of job and poor infrastructure and services. Moreover, limited access to land, inadequate farming inputs, drought, and scarcity of water and declination of soil fertility also lead to food insecurity of the vulnerable. Rural population accounts for 15 percent of the total in the region. The chronic food insecurity causes migration of the local people and many social and health problems. The chronic poverty and high vulnerability to shocks are widespread throughout the region. A food security, poverty and nutrition survey conducted in 2013 by WFP and Save the Children in the Dry Zone - large part of Magway, Mandalay and lower part of Sagaing Divisions - reported that 26 percent of the people in Dry Zone live below the poverty line and 18 percent is food-insecure. Chronic and acute malnutrition was found to be widespread among children under the age of five with 12 percent acutely malnourished while 27 percent chronically malnourished. In 2003, WFP opened a sub-office in Pakkoku to provide relief food assistance to families, whose breadwinners contracted HIV/TB. The food assistance was provided through the direct support from Fund for HIV/AIDS for Myanmar (FAHM).

    2.1.12 Myanmar Port of Aunglan Port Overview Port Picture Description and Contacts of Key Companies Port Performance Berthing Specifications General Cargo Handling Berths Port Handling Equipment Container Facilities Customs Guidance Terminal Information Multipurpose Terminal Grain and Bulk Handling Main Storage Terminal Stevedoring Hinterland Information Port Security Port Overview The port of Aunglan in the Magway Region consists of a gravel ramp for ferries located in the centre of Aunglan and a passenger mooring point close to it. At both locations there are no jetties or berths, vessels moor at the riverbank and use gangways for loading and unloading. Most cargo activity happens across the river at Thayet which can only be reached by ferry from Aunglan. The Ayeyawady Bridge (Thayet-Aunglan) is under construction in Thayet District Magway Region and connects Aunglan Town on the east bank of the river with Thayet Town on the west bank of the river. The bridge has a total length of 2,272.5 meter with 8.5-meter-wide road and a meter wide pedestrian path on both side of the bridge. Waterway clearance beneath the bridge was 130 meters wide and 16 meters high. The bridge is an steel frame arch type with AASHTO HS 25-44 loading capacity. The bridge is one of the important bridges that lie on the economic corridor road that connects Kyaukpyu Special Economic Zone with Shweli (Ruili) passing through Thayet, Aunglan and Nay Pyi Taw. In terms of cargo movement, this port mostly handles cement and construction materials, while food items and other general supplies are transported by road all year round.

  • FIELD ASSESSMENT REPORT – MAGWAY DIVISION Highlights
    FIELD ASSESSMENT REPORT – MAGWAY DIVISION School in Sidoktaya township, Magway Division Highlights Impact in Sidoktaya and Pwithbyu townships seems to be more severe than in other townships due to their proximity with the Mon, and where the mud left after the flood caused significant damage on farmland, leaving many farmers without means to restore their livelihoods quickly. Across all townships visited, communities are returning to their place of origin but a few families remain displaced, unable to return due to stagnating water or presence of mud in their village. It is expected these vulnerable families need of support for their basic needs in the coming months, including food, water, shelter, NFIs. Other priority needs identified include livelihoods, cleanup of villages and WASH. 1 Overview An IOM assessment team visited Magway region on 11-18 August 2015 and undertook assessments in the affected areas in Sidoktaya Pwithbyu, Salin and Yenangyaung townships. The team met with the Relief and Resettlement Department, General Administrative Department and village authorities in affected townships, and with Save the Children, the Myanmar Red Cross Society and World Vision. Findings Based on information collected from key stakeholders, floods have been caused by heavy rains, triggering riverine floods and affecting communities located on riverbanks. Impact in Sidoktaya and Pwithbyu seems to be more severe than in other townships due to their proximity with the Mon. Although the damage on houses appeared to be overall limited, a detailed damaged assessment would help clarifying the extent of damage in affected townships. The level of damage appears under reported and increased communication with communities required as some are unaware of the need to report damages to local authorities, and be potentially eligible to compensation.
