Yenatha or Yentha is a village in Madaya Township, Pyin Oo Lwin District, in the Mandalay Region of central Burma. It is located 7 miles northeast of Madaya, connected by the National Highway 31.[1][2] The Japanese were reported to have "put up pockets of resistance" at Yenatha during World War II.[3] The Madaya River flows nearby to the south and joins the Irrawaddy River as well as the Yenatha Canal as part of the Mandalay Canal network.[4] The Yenatha Irrigation Scheme has been funded by the Asian Development Bank, who recognizes the importance and potential of agriculture and fisheries in the area.[5] The canal involves a pump irrigation scheme and cost some 9,900,000 kyat to build.[6] A Leprosy hospital lies to the south of Yenatha.
