With deep sorrow, we extend our heartfelt prayers to all those affected by the tragic capsizing of two boats in the Myanmar’s Ayeyarwady coast. The vessels carrying more than 500 people are feared to have sunk in rough seas.

May all those who are grieving find strength, comfort, and support in this difficult time. We also extend thoughts of loving-kindness to families awaiting news of their loved ones, and all those involved in the search and rescue efforts. May those who perished be at Peace.
