The headmaster and the village headman sold off a school property in Irrawaddy Division, without providing any prior notification to the staff, trustees or villagers, claimed local residents of Sakhangyi village in Irrawaddy Division.

The Taw Phyar Primary School, located in Sakhangyi village, was established in 1958 and is constructed upon 2.6 acres of land that was donated by U Sein, a local resident. Since then, Sien has also been paying the property tax for the school property.
