Myanmar's attitude
Besides India, Myanmar is our other neighbour. Some years back we focused on this country, thinking of mutual interests. Many of us were delighted to hear each development with this country. I also wrote three letters in this page in the past and I would like to mention the headlines of those letters 1. Leasing of Myanmar land (17-03-08), 2. Gas import (14-04-08), 3. Bangladesh-Myanmar road (23-06-08).
In this age no one can go on alone, everyone should keep good relations with the neighbours. But we are shocked to see Myanmar's attitude towards us. Without solving the issue of the area identification, how do they come into our territory? With the resistance by our naval forces they had to retreat but then they started deploying their boarder forces along with the army near our boundary lines.
That is not expected of a neighbour.
