Border posts
Htee Kee is the name of the new town in the Tanintharyi Region on the Burmese side of the border which is currently being developed. The Phu Nam Ron pass is expected to gain in importance if the planned Dawei deepwater port project goes ahead, which includes a highway and a railway line between Bangkok and that harbor.
The road on the Burmese side leads to Dawei via Sinbyudaing and Myitta; it has been recently been upgraded.
