Hi Paolo,
The gouverments of India, Myanmar and Thailand have agreed to build a road together for overland crossing. It should be in operation somewhere around 2003 (if all goes to plan)
In my opinion: I'll believe it when I ride it, but it's a step forward.
I have had contact (again) with two local travel-agent in Myanmar and they are trying to get the necesary permits. A few months agoo I tried also, but at the end it failed.
Lets keep our fingers crossed.
I have no clue what the budget is. It will probably take me 9 month's... mostly becourse of the climate-zone's and monsoens.
I'll be in SE-Asia at the end of the year, but don't want to go to indonesia in Januari (to much rain) So i'll be doing it slowly. Go to Indonesia in March or April and down under around May or June.
I am not in a hurry becourse I can only go to South America around Oktober or November (again becourse of the climate)
As you can see... I don't like rain or cold.. hahaha
Maarten
