MAE SOT, Thailand: Thailand has sent messages to Myanmar's junta to reduce violence, its foreign minister said on Friday (April 12), adding preparations are underway for an influx of people crossing into the country after the fall of a border town to rebels.

Parnpree Bahiddha-Nukara said Thailand was also working with members of the Association of Southeast Asian Nations (Asean) to follow a stalled peace plan for Myanmar, known as its five-point consensus.
