Thailand supports the stance of Myanmar government. Although there is progress in the government’s action in connection with the Rakhine issue, it needs time to solve it, the minister said.Thailand understands the complicated nature of the issue and the requirement of time, as the country had also faced a similar situation. Thailand views the issue as a matter that must be solved through short-term, mid-term and long-term programmes from a comprehensive outlook. The senior general said although it needs to measure some parts of the boundary between Myanmar and Thailand which is then 2,000 kilometers in total, neither country has a big border problem.
