Namaklwe is a village near the Burma-Thai border in Mong Ton Township of Shan State in eastern Burma. It lies along National Highway 45 which connects it to Mong Ton in the north and leads into Thailand, just to the south.[1][2] It has been a site of conflict when the Burma Frontier Force once gunned down Siamese invaders at Namaklwe.
