Description
Truckers hauling cargo of Thai fruit and furniture from the Thai border to Myanmar's biggest city Yangon face bribes, checkpoints, dodge landslides, and navigate a raging civil war.
Yangon is just 400 kilometres away by road but a round trip between the commercial hub and vital trading partner Thailand can take around ten days more than 10 days of slogging through checkpoints and paying backhanders to the military and its allies. IMAGES
