Myaing Gyi Ngu () is a village in the Hpa-an District of Kayin State, Myanmar. It is the location of a camp for internally displaced people where over 5,000 people live.
On 1 May 2018 U Thuzana, a Buddhist monk and spiritual advisor to the armed insurgent group the Democratic Karen Buddhist Army, led 300 followers to illegally build a stupa on the grounds of an Anglican church in Myaing Gyi Ngu (one of several he has built near churches and mosques) causing religious tensions and receiving widespread condemnation.
