Did any China people get injured in the fire at the biggest hotel in Yangon, Myanmar?

1October 19 At about 3: 30 in the morning, a fire broke out in Kan Daw Kyi Palace, the largest teak hotel in Yangon. The fire department dispatched a large number of firemen's police cars, and it was not until about 5: 45 in the morning that the fire was initially extinguished.

Located on the Royal Lake in Yangon, the hotel is made of a large number of teak beams, many of which are very rare. The teak decoration in the hotel alone is worth tens of millions of dollars. Previously, the hotel also invested millions of dollars in renovation. The fire caused serious damage to the teak decoration of the hotel, and the specific losses are still being counted.

Another source said that two people were injured in the fire, one from China. Upon learning of the disaster, the Embassy of China in Myanmar launched an emergency mechanism and contacted the relevant departments in Myanmar to find out about the casualties of citizens in China. Upon verification, 1 China and Macao residents were injured when they escaped from high altitude, and they are still receiving comprehensive examination and treatment in the hospital. The embassy has sent staff to the hospital to express condolences to the injured and their families, asking the hospital to provide emergency treatment and asking the hotel to cooperate with the security work.

Teak is known as the "king of trees", and it takes at least 100 years from growth to maturity. In the natural environment, the best producing area can only mature one to five trees per mu, which is called "national treasure" in Myanmar, Indonesia and other countries.

May the injured recover soon!
