In the face of the situation in northern Myanmar, Min Aung Hlaing** gradually realized that if the problem is solved by force, not only will it not be able to completely eliminate the armed forces in northern Myanmar, but it may also attract China's dissatisfaction. As a result, Min Aung Hlaing has had to rethink its course of action. Despite repeated warnings from China to maintain stability on the border and a slight restrain in their actions, Min Aung Hlaing has not completely stopped intervening in northern Myanmar because negotiations with armed groups in northern Myanmar have not gone well.
China has played its due role in stabilizing the situation in northern Myanmar and has seized the opportunity to actively promote cooperation with important ports in Myanmar. According to recent news, China and Myanmar signed a supplementary agreement on the Kyaukphyu port in Naypyidaw, Myanmar. The completion of the supplementary agreement marks the basic finalization of the China-Myanmar Kyaukphyu Port Deep-water Port Project. The Kyaukphyu Port is located in Myanmar's Rakhine State region, and if successful, the project will give Myanmar a world-class deep-water port, which will bring significant economic benefits to Myanmar. For China, if it can build a direct channel from Yunnan and other southwestern parts of China to Kyaukpyu Port, it will greatly shorten the distance between China and Europe, Africa and other places, and save a lot of transportation costs. Therefore, both China and Myanmar will benefit greatly, and this is undoubtedly a win-win project.
However, the China-Myanmar Kyaukphyu port project has experienced nearly a decade of delays. After the tender for the project began in 2011, the Chinese company won the bid, but due to a number of factors (such as frequent civil unrest in Myanmar), the project was delayed again and again, and it was only recently that a supplementary agreement was signed to take an important step. One of the main reasons why Min Aung Hlaing is willing to talk about cooperation with China is that he wants to avoid being isolated from Southeast Asia. Recently, Thailand has put forward a plan to build a new "road and bridge", intending to replace the status of the Strait of Malacca; At the same time, China-Vietnam relations are heating up, and the construction of the China-Vietnam railway has also become an important issue. Min Aung Hlaing should be well aware of China's growing influence in Southeast Asia, and it is undoubtedly the wisest choice to rely on China's rapid development to achieve its own development. Therefore, it is understandable that Min Aung Hlaing has decided to cooperate with China in the context of the many benefits that neighboring countries have gained from cooperating with China. If Min Aung Hlaing confronts China again, Myanmar's position in Southeast Asia will only become more isolated. In other words, China has put the opportunity in front of Myanmar, and if Min Aung Hlaing does not appreciate it, China can also find other partners, and the results will not be bad. Perhaps out of the face of a joint crackdown on wire fraud in northern Myanmar, China gave Min Aung Hlaing a chance, and Min Aung Hlaing apparently seized the opportunity wisely. The next thing Min Aung Hlaing has to do is to make China happy with its actions on the situation in northern Myanmar.

The smooth progress of the China-Myanmar Kyaukphyu Port cooperation is a manifestation of the long-term friendly and cooperative relations between China and Myanmar, and is also an opportunity for the common development of both sides. As an important neighbor of China, Myanmar not only has great potential in terms of economy, but also an important part of geopolitics. By deepening cooperation with Myanmar, China will further consolidate its influence in Southeast Asia and play an active role in regional peace, stability and prosperity.
