Myanmar bus accidents kill 18 people
YANGON, March 29 (Reuters) - At least 18 people were killed in two bus accidents in Myanmar, an official newspaper reported on Thursday.
Ten passengers were killed and 25 injured when a bus collided head on with a truck near Bago, about 80 km (50 miles) north of Yangon on Tuesday, the Myanma Ahlin Daily said.
On the same day, eight people were killed and 37 injured when a bus plunged into a ravine after its brakes failed near Taunggyi in the Shan state hills 725 km (450 miles) north of Yangon, it said.
The tolls were expected to rise as some survivors were in critical condition.
