No. (99) Light Infantry Division (Burmese: အမှတ် (၉၉) ခြေမြန်တပ်မ, abbreviated as Tha Ma Kha (99) (Burmese: တမခ (၉၉)) is a light infantry division of the Myanmar Army. It is headquartered in Meiktila, Mandalay Region, and its subordinate battalions are deployed across Mandalay Region and Naypyidaw Union Territory.[1][2][3]
LID-99, along with other Light Infantry Divisions (LIDs) and Regional Military Commands (RMCs), operates under the direct command of the Bureau of Special Operations (BSO) of the Myanmar Army. These divisions are structured for rapid deployment and offensive operations without fixed territorial responsibilities, allowing them to be repositioned based on operational requirements.[4]
