Thai Deputy Commerce Minister Alongkorn Ponlaboot went to Myanmar for due. Bridge connect Mae Sot - Myawaddy. Thai want to make that area to be a special economic area, and if they can build this bridge, we get valus of border trade countrywide around 140 billion baht per year. Building bridge support this reason. The due will happen on 2010.07.28 and Thai hope this due is success.
In my opinion, I think this bridge make transpot between Thai and Myanmar is easier. This reason may affect to transportation and international trading better. Bacause we can go to Myanmar and go back to Thai easy. Besides of this, the relation between Thai and Myanmar is better too. So politics of Thailand will be relaxing, we have trouble inside Thailand, if relation between Thai and Myanmar better. Thailand politic can reduce trouble and spend time for something else.
