Is Kandawgalay perhaps "Kandawgyi Lake", a man-made lake in Rangoon? Chris 20:01, 16 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]
I'm not sure of that, but galay means children, and kandaw means lake, so it may be the name of Scout troops in Rangoon.--Hintha 00:49, 21 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Thank you! I do get bunches of Google hits on it, it almost seems to be the old name of a georgaphical section of Rangoon. Or, going from what you said, maybe it's what the Burmese Scouts called their Sea Scout program? Chris 04:11, 21 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Kandawgalay is the name of a township/ward in Yangon. It is located near Yangon Zoo and Kandawgyi Lake.Okkar 16:05, 6 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]
It's a ward, because there is no township with that name in Yangon. --Hintha 04:36, 7 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]
