“It took him, I don’t know how many years to come up to here. But the house was destroyed in 5-10 minutes. So if anybody can help please move forward and help this brother.”

Khant who is a businessman says the cash is to help the 76-year-old get some immediate needs for his family.

A surprised Bari says he is grateful for the assistance.

Bari says he has struggled for 60 years to build his home which was destroyed within minutes by the fire.
