A Chinese company has delivered a passenger ship, the Thallawady-6, built for a Myanmar inland water company.
The double decker passenger ship, built by the Yunnan Machinery Import and Export Corporation (YMIEC) of China, is for the Myanmar state-run Inland Water Transport (IWT).
The Thallawady-6 is one of the four built for the Myanmar IWT under a contract signed by the two parties.
The ship, 37.40 meters long, 8.50 meters wide and 1.90 meters high, can cruise 10 nautical miles per hour.
The ship, built at a cost of US$1,451,700 and 3,835,000 kyats (US$10,957), can accommodate 25 passengers in 10 first class rooms installed with air-conditioners.
Earlier, YMIEC has handed over three Thallawady ships to IWT.
