July 17, 2006: Smuggling and gang activity is a problem along the northern borders as well. In addition to the movement of drugs and illegal migrants, there is also illegal logging. No Islamic terrorists, but the smuggling and drug gangs are armed and willing to fight. So the army is increasing its forces, and patrols, in the north.
July 14, 2006: Burma (Myanmar) defused a tense situation by apologizing for firing on a Thai military helicopter last week.
