It is the administrative center for Thanbyuzayat Township. Thanbyuzayat is about south of Mawlamyine (Moulmein) and miles south-east of Kyaikkami (Amherst).
During World War II Thanbyuzayat was the western terminus of the Thailand–Burma Railway linking up with the pre-war coastal railway between Ye and Rangoon. Thanbyuzayat was also the site of a Japanese Prisoner of war camp for the prisoners who worked on building the railway,〔Rivett, Rohan Deakin (1950) "Chapter XIX: Thanbyuzayat Base Camp" ''Behind bamboo : an inside story of the Japanese prison camps'' Angus and Robertson, London, 〕 and over 3,000 Allied servicemen are buried there in the Thanbyuzayat War Cemetery.〔Taylor, William (1971) ''With the Cambridgeshires at Singapore'' Trevor Allen Bevis, March, England, pages 89-91, ISBN 0-901680-01-X〕 Today a clock tower stands at the central road junction with roads headed north to Mawlamyine, south to Ye, and west to Kyaikkami and Setse.〔
