Is the border open or closed[edit]

Why not have a sentence or two about whether the border is open or closed, how long it has been, and where there are any current or former border crossings? This info is hard to find. — Hippietrail (talk) 08:19, 4 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Yes I have added a line on this. The border appears to have been closed for years. With the Rohingya crisis and now Covid this looks set to continue for some time. I tried looking for some info on the crossings points (presumably there is one at least as there is a road connecting Maungdaw with Cox's Bazaar - see: http://ontheworldmap.com/bangladesh/road-map-of-bangladesh.jpg) however I could find no info on this.WisDom-UK (talk) 19:08, 22 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]
