via Myanmar Times, 26 March 2020: I’m surprised that there are even archaeological projects going on these days…
The Archaeological Survey of India (ASI) has started the restoration of five pagodas in Bagan’s ancient cultural zone, the Archaeology and National Museum Department in Bagan said in a statement. U Soe Soe Lin, deputy director of the department, said the ASI team would carry out emergency maintenance work. “The restoration would take years,” he said. “Emergency maintenance for integrity will be done this year, and the rest will be done step-by-step after doing research on the structures.”
