I would imagine you wouldn't have a problem flying from Ragoon to Bangladesh, but keep in mind that you will have to fly into Rangoon, most likely from Bangkok, the land crossings from the Thai side, Mae Sot/ Myawaddy, Ranong to where ever in Burma are only for one day junkets as is the crossing from Mae Sai into Tachileik(great place to buy DVDs), however with this crossing I think it's still possible to travel onward to Kentung in Shan state but you have to return to Thailand the same way you got to Kentung. It is Burma after all. Funny thing is I've heard that construction of the highway linking northern Burma, Katchin state to Manipur in India is almost done, I guess the only people who will be able to use it (for now at least) are the Burmese, Indians,Bangladeshies & those pesky Chinese...
