Gunboat diplomacy?
Oped, Postbag, Published on 03/03/2021
» The situation in Myanmar would seem to present a golden opportunity for a useful bit of gunboat diplomacy. What would be the likely result of an American carrier task force standing off the coast in the Gulf of Martaban or Indian Ocean? Perhaps joined by the new British aircraft carrier and French naval assets. Of course it is out of the question for a foreign invasion on the ground. However the Myanmar military might have cause to think again if faced with the threat of having its assets and installations reduced by air power. Including its small air force and command and control capability.
Corn waste to blame

» The haze is already upon us, but where does it come from? In Chiang Mai, most point to forest fires, but as the valleys fill with haze with not a forest fire in sight, there must be another source. What is that? Small farmers burning their corn field waste before the burning ban arrives.
