Army chief plans border walls
Play
Army chief General Prayuth Chanocha Monday floated the idea of erecting walls along the entire Thai-Malaysia border to block the smuggling of bombs and similar devices for use in attacks by insurgents.
This proposal will be included in a meeting with Malaysian authorities next month.
According to the commander-in-chief, these walls would help prevent the delivery of explosives to insurgents in the deep South, while security officials can focus on breaking down networks of bombmakers and bomb-assembly outfits.
