In large part to bump up, I agree on both. The wing patch, longish tail relative to body, grey head without any yellow and the yellow chin exclude I believe any other minivets and are all good for long-tailed minivet female.
The lack of any pale "armpit" seems to indicate greater rather than lesser frigate bird.
There are others here with more expertise and may correct or even confirm

Hi S, could you specify which mountains near Myanmar? Only judging by numbers of obs (eBird, book) Grey-chinned would be more likely... Therefore exact location is needed...
Which is where they should be, the 'armpit',It's Mae Wong. But I wouldn't decide of an ID based on stats though... Grey-chinned is 4-5 x more common based on obs, despite a similar sized or even smaller range...
About the frigate, it's mostly the "tawny orange-yellow head and upper breast" that made me think of immature F. minor. Here is a picture of a Lesser bird shot on the same trip, white on the abdomen is also less extended on the lower part on average (here an immature/young female I'd guess):

For young immature Lesser Frigate I have "Head, neck, chest and abdomen white with reddish streaks", and "head sometimes brown" which might be the case here, on the left.
About the 'developing' spurs, they are not really on the wings, more on the sides of the abdomen, and I can find plenty of images online of this species with 'spurs' like this one, more or less developed.
Looking at many pictures, variability is quite huge for all these criteria though...
Hi S, Mae Wong is very good for birding. I was there last year November. We found Golden Marten too and quite some birds...
I looked at the Avibase checklist for Mae Wong NP: Mae Wong National Park bird checklist - Avibase - Bird Checklists of the World
There are 7 different species of Minivet on that list, including the Grey-chinned M. That is more than in my Robson's guide. But no Long-tailed M.
Nick Upton on Thaibirding.com reports only three species, the Grey-chinned, the Short-billed and the Scarlet M. Mae Wong National Park Bird Checklist. Again, no Long-tailed...
Even in eBird there are no obs around Mae Wong NP.
So I guess you might conclude that whether you were the first to spot a Long-tailed there, but indeed much more likely it was a Grey-chinned Minivet as John proposed.
