#1 Myanmar''s military junta may be readying to move part of their administration outside the capital to somewhere "safer"..

Hmmm..how about Caracas? They certainly share your world vision thingy.

#2 This is just plain weird - the paranoia, the plans to relocate the "Govt" in the mountains - the whole thing. These guys are simply loonies. Pyinmana's not far from where I used to cross over to renew my Thai visa, lol. Mebbe they think they're not getting their full cut of the fees, heh.

#4 Maybe the commie junta would like to buy a few deluxe accommodation underground bunkers made by Halliburton? Best insurance in the world.

#5 Nobody has been interested in Burma since the Brits left after WWII. Who are these guys worried about? Most in the US could give a FF about Myanmar.

#6 I don't think the US would object to them moving their headquarters out of a crowded city and into a rural area with much less risk of collateral damage with fewer people around.

#7 "I am told that they have laid a lot of concrete."

Didi they have to bribe a Chinese importer to get so much?
