A powerful earthquake which struck Myanmar on Friday afternoon resulted in 10 deaths, 16 injuries and 101 missing at three construction sites in Bangkok, including the collapse of a 30-storey government building, according to Bangkok's Deputy Governor.
The 7.7-magnitude quake, occurring at a depth of 10 kilometres at 1.20pm in Mandalay, Myanmar, was felt across Thailand, China and Vietnam.
In Thailand, the quake had caused damage in Bangkok and 10 other provinces.
The Meteorological Department said on Saturday that two more earthquakes were detected in the northern province of Mae Hong Son.
There were no immediate reports of damage.
Aftershocks from the 7.7-magnitude earthquake which hit Myanmar on Friday will continue in Thailand for one to two weeks, according to a seismologist.
Although the aftershocks are expected to be less intense than the initial tremor, people are advised to be cautious, the expert said.
He also stressed on the need for structural assessments of tall buildings following the powerful earthquake.
