Thank you for your blog on Monywa
Hello there I thank you very much for your photos of Boditataung and its neighbourhood.I was born there many years ago and these photos remind me of my days as a small boy in the village.The small hills in the background are where I worked as a sheppard boy looking after the goats my parents raised for their livelihood. My father was a school teacher and my mother was selling foods and other paraphenalia which she carried on her head.The monk who build all these buddha statutes was my uncle on my father's side and the reverend monk passed away 2 years ago. I hope I will see you in your next visit to Monywa.
