Now we know the real reason why Chinese are invading its neighbors in South China Sea.
Good good! Let the exodus to Lemmy begin!
Not only did they ban it, but they also barred its leaders from running in elections for 10 years: https://lemmy.ca/post/26497747.
Reuters and AP articles are INCOMPLETE.
They are freaking crazy. This court doesn't understand "democracy" if they think advocating for a law change is anti-democratic.
MNDAA are no longer hiding where their allegiance lies.
I have not only heard I have seen them. Chinese have the largest military by man power and the largest navy by number of ships in the world.
Yeah have you ever heard of PPP? Obviously not.
Actually China has the largest military in the world.
Or did Norway choose not to participate? Their absence is curious.
Meanwhile, billions of narco money from golden triangle and their warlords and former warlords are living in Singapore as Singaporeans. This is just show.
What this poorly written article doesn't say clearly is that these are Burmese REFUGEES who have ran from the war-mongering military junta to India. India does not recognize refugees and have jailed them.
Reposting my comment in Myanmar here to answer. It isn't on charm offensive. This situation is interesting because China is the one arming both sides of the conflict. China is the chief arms supplier to the military Junta whose weapons have been killing civilians. It is with Chinese blessing and Chinese weapons that guerilla group Brotherhood Alliance launched its 1027 operation last year that’s been highly successful against the Junta.
China has in the past gone alone (while rejecting participation of regional and other global powers) in brokering peace in Burma forcing both the Junta and the guerillas to sit down at meetings in southern China without participation of other regional countries. China has been the one meeting with Burma’s current and former dictators in past two months, including Wang's visit to Myanmar 2 days ago.
In an about-face, China is now seeking greater regional cooperation in Burma’s internal affairs. It may well be that the situation is spinning out of control for China, and Chinese are worried their strategic interests are now poised to crumble in Myanmar.
