Taipei, Feb. 25 (CNA) A two-year-old Myanmarese burn survivor will undergo surgery for free in Taiwan next week so that she can walk again, a local charity group said Sunday.

The daughter of a Myanmarese woman named Phyu Pyar was brought to Taiwan earlier this month after Linkou Chang Gung Memorial Hospital promised to cover the NT$750,000 (US$25,651) fee for the surgery, according to the Taiwan Christian International Holistic Care Missionary Association.

The case was brought to the attention of the association when it was conducting a volunteer medical tour in Bagan in central Myanmar in November 2017, according to the association.    [FULL  STORY]
