Greetings Marc -

According to the Wikipedia the Capital is "Naypyidaw".

There are two entries in the geoname database.

Code:
 3077290;6545142;"Naypyidaw";"Naypyidaw";"Nay Pyi Taw";19.73661265;96.20718956;"P";"PPL";"MM";"";"08";"";"";"";0;;93.00;"Asia/Rangoon";"0001-01-01"
 3077291;6611854;"Naypyidaw";"Naypyidaw";"Nay Pyi Taw,Ne Pyi Daw";19.74500000;96.12972220;"P";"PPL";"MM";"";"08";"";"";"";0;;108.00;"Asia/Rangoon";"0001-01-01"

Which one is correct?
And should one of these be a "PPLC"?

If you decide to make one of these into a "PPLC", could you please let me know which one.

Thanks In Advance.

Regards,
Robert Artigas

By the way I think you are using an old dump. It was changed to PPLC in November.
