WE have seen a lot of assurance by China that we have been a good relationship for so long history back and want to maintain this whenever they have a chance to express. Is it really reflect the attitude of China toward our nation? I personally doubt with that statement. Let me draw some evidence with regard to China's action in past and present.
Our first ever empire, Bagan, was established in AD1044 and was destroyed by Mongol from China at the end of 13th century. Like any war that time, they purposely destroyed our culture, people to influence their power within region. That took us another 2 centuries to regain strength when 2nd empire was formed in Bago under the King of Bayintnaung. This history said major set back for our nation's development by Chinese invader.
We are geographically located between world's biggest nations, China and India. Fact say that India has no history of invading its neighbor countries. It bold China's incursion mind on its regional smaller and weaker nations. That behavior still alive to date. The territory dispute for South China Sea Islands is a good example to proof my opinion. China's unstoppable rise on its military build up have made regional nations feel extremely insecure. It prompt the Asian nations to increase their military budget visibly. Most recent survey on military expenses suggest that China's total military expenses is bigger than total regional countries expenses. China aims to raise its already high military budget to US$ 238.20 billions. It raise all analysts eyebrows. The only nation which has higher budget is US only with US$ 525.4 billion for next year. While US government is busying with where and how to reduce its defense budget to save its economy, China continue to increase its military budget to boost its military power.
Few days ago, China's one state back media's editor show their worry with regard to current economy open up of its major allies. They are Pakistan, North Korea and of course Myanmar. It show China don't want to see its allies to open up and welcome to western society. Bad enough to rate China an enemy instead of friend country. The editor also emphasis on Myanmar's open to US lead nations that could bring US army to the border of China with Myanmar at worst scenario. Coincidentally, Myanmar military chief has shown its interest to participate in US led world games to get value experience. These all combine news might have made China extremely worried about Burma.
My question is why China needs to worry about Myanmar's attempt to develop nation if they are suppose to be our friend nation as they constantly claim. The unhappiness on our reforms nature suggest the China has dirty tactic toward Burma. They clearly know that they'll not able to influence Burma if we make our progress alive and got west's assistance in future. The democratic new government might not follow the footstep of its predecessor as they know what people exactly want. In brief, it's more likely to rate China as a bad friend than good one. May our leaders aware the attitude of China who is nearest enemy to our democratic development.
