Why does the Thai government care of people protest against Myanmar, especially since many of them are Burmese?

Looks like at least 2 of them in the same get up. The lump of concrete or whatever in his left hand gives us a clue. Policeman behind him doesn't seem too interested.

Looks like the 'protester' is being given instruction on how to throw the miserable apology for a smoke flare. He's in uniform.......

Pretty sure the Myanmar Government doesn't care whether they protest or not.  They are thinking, "come over here and try that flare throwing, we would love to have you."  LOL.
