The Ministers' Building (Burmese: ဝန်ကြီးများရုံး; also known as the Ministers' Office, today known as The Secretariat or Secretariat Yangon) was the administrative seat of British Burma, in downtown Yangon, Burma and is the spot where Aung San and eight cabinet ministers were assassinated. The British administration moved the office from Strand Road after administrative work increased greatly resulting in an urgent need to expand the cramped and poorly lit administration building.[1]
