BANGKOK: Some 3,000 Myanmar residents on Saturday (Feb 8) rallied at the first and second Thai–Myanmar Friendship bridges in Myawaddy, which connect to Mae Sot district, Tak province to protest against Thailand cutting off electricity, internet and fuel supplies to Myanmar’s border areas.
On Wednesday, the Thai government decided to cut off electricity supply in a bid to stop the operations of call-centre scam gangs based in the areas, which have become a growing international security concern.
