Sri Dalada Maligawa and Malwathu-Asgiri Viharas Donate Rs.15 Million to Earthquake-Hit Myanmar

The Malwathu and Asgiri Maha Viharas, together with the Sri Dalada Maligawa, have donated Rs.15 million to support the people of Myanmar affected by the recent earthquake.

The donation was formally handed over to the Myanmar Ambassador in Colombo, Daw Marlar Than Htaik, at the Sri Dalada Maligawa premises. The contribution was presented by Most Ven. Warakagoda Gnanarathana Thera, the Mahanayake of the Asgiriya Chapter, with the participation of the Anunayake Theras of both the Malwathu and Asgiriya Chapters.

The gesture reflects the strong religious and cultural ties between the two nations and the commitment of Sri Lanka’s Buddhist clergy to humanitarian support.
