By Tim Newton Yesterday’s (Wednesday) landslide occurred at the construction site of a clinic near Vachira Hospital where there is a 3-4 metre retaining wall. A team of police, rescue teams and a Vachira Hospital medical team tried to save a Myanmar worker, 22 year old Nay Sol Lin, by digging the soil around him and providing saline water. It took about 20 minutes to get him out of the collapsed soil. Another Myanmar worker who was piled up deeper was 37 year old Mew Ta Ao. It took 15 minutes to remove his body. He was already dead by the time they could get to him. He was sent to the hospital for an autopsy.
