Kachin News
March 5, 2008 - The Balaminhtin-Irrawaddy River (Mali Hka) Bridge in Myitkyina, the capital of Kachin State will be closed on March 12 for repairs. The announcement of the closure was made by the Burmese military junta.
The bridge pillar number 3 (P-3) slopes into the water and if we look carefully, the bridge appears slanted, an eyewitness in Myitkyina told KNG.
Residents said the authorities have declared the closure of the bridge but they have not announced when it will be reopened. The Bridge connects Myitkyina to Waingmaw Township.
"We just heard of the closure date but we have no idea when the bridge will be reopened," a resident told KNG.
