News from the southern part of Shan State , during the previous government period, parking on the main road in Taunggyi City only charged 200 kyats parking fee. Since the political turmoil lasted more than a year, the parking fee on General Road, the main road in Taunggyi City, has been increased to 500 kyats.
Local people said that parking on the main road of General Road in Taunggyi City used to charge 200 kyats for the first two hours, but now it charges 500 kyats.
A citizen said that he was charged 500 kyats as soon as he parked his car. The car was scratched, but the administrator pretended not to know. A friend of mine parked his car there and his rearview mirror was stolen, and the parking lot administrator didn't care. In the past, parking was guarded by special administrators, who also directed people to reverse the parking lot.
It is reported that the Taunggyi Township Development Bureau previously released information stating that if someone charges excessive parking fees, the public can report it to the Taunggyi Township Development Bureau. However, after public reports, the situation of overcharging parking fees has not improved. In addition, congestion occurs in parking areas from time to time, and cars are parked on the roadside, which increases the risk of traffic accidents.
The parking area is located in the busiest area of Taunggyi . There used to be traffic police to divert traffic, but now, there are no traffic police in the traffic police box, only military soldiers and police with guns.
