Burmese want to open border pass

Bangkok Post
A Burmese delegation is in Thailand to confirm moves that it wants to open
a border pass at Ban Bongti in Sai Yok district.
Maung Khin, adviser to the State Peace and Development Council on the
Thai-Burmese joint development, said the Bongti border pass is a vital part
of the Thai-Burmese road project to link Kanchanaburi with Burma's
deep-sea port of Tavoy.
The delegation led by U Maung Khin will hold a meeting with the House
Tourism Committee at Parliament today to confirm Burma's wish to open Ban
Bongti as a permanent border pass.
