New constructions, repair and maintenance

There are 2  projects at the present time.

1. To build a new residence for the nuns on An Kong premises

2. To repair An Kong’s Tomb Stone

Nun’s residence

There are about 20 nuns studying at our monastery and having difficulty to accommodate them all and is in the same compound with the monks. Fortunately, the good news is that Industrial Farm Corporation return the land to Kyaikalo Phone Gyi Kyaung so we have a new compound divided by the fence for our new nun’s residence. When Sayadaw came to Los Angeles, he explained about the necessity of the nun’s residence. Since Sayadaw came with his own mission and was very busy, only a few of us had a chance to meet him and donate. The estimated cost to build the residence is about Ks.40,000,000 for the structure alone. This may be  underestimated because it depends on inflation and dollar fluctuation in Myanmar. Those of you don’t have a chance to donate yet but like to participate as a descendent of Tan Po Lye may contact the person which the phone #  will b e provided on  the next page. Donors will be listed by family as follows and updated as the information deems available:-

1. Tan Ah Too @ U San Hlaing family:-                 Ks. 10,000,000.00

2. Tan Eu Gee @ U Hla Win family:-                      $ 5000.00
