I wish Thailand would do the same in the Kra that Burma is doing in Rakhine- push the Moslems into Malaya.
Looks like the canal could create a divide between the two. I hope they build it:
Thais called to support S$38.2 billion Kra Canal construction that will bypass Spore ports
Excerpt: “A canal of such magnitude would also divide most of the Buddhist country from the insurgency-plagued and largely Muslim southern provinces.”
