Border disputes causes closure of Myanmar-Lao friendship bridge

The newly built Myanmar-Lao Friendship Bridge remains closed as authorities on both sides struggle to agree on the issue of border demarcation.

Once opened, the bridge will boost commerce between the two nations and will also allow direct trade with Thailand, Vietnam and China, the Myanmar Times reported on Thursday. (Courtesy of indianexpress.com)
