Hi,
I just received the below email from Boothee:
Hi Weixing,

Greetings from Destroyed Yangon!

Please give my regards and thank you all for thinking about me when I'm in trouble.

Looks like the whole city was destroyed. Almost all the trees fall down and electricity gone together with the trees. No electricity. No water. And no internet.

Like us, who stay on land with house and trees got big problems. I have many mango trees in our coumpound so we can't go out of the compound for about 2 days. Strong buddhist monks come and help in clearing those trees. So we can go out and get some foods and other neccessary things. Luckily I got huge water tank outside the house. So we can live.

OK. Let me stop this letter here and I'll write to you later with more details :) I have to go to my friends house to recharge my batteries for lighting and GSM telephones.

Many small house has been destroyed.

Luckily, this VIP area got electricity, internet and open to public.

Oh! I forgot! Our family is safe.

With many thanks,

:)
boothee

Have a nice day.
