India now has to face strategic consequence of Myanmar's isolation
Signs suggest China has leveraged influence to put spy station on remote island
China appears to be building a military listening post on Great Coco Island, which sits between the Bay of Bengal and the Andaman Sea just north of the Andaman and Nicobar archipelago where India has multiple naval and air force facilities and about 210 kilometers southwest of the mouth of Myanmar's Irrawaddy River.
Such a spy station could be used to carry out maritime surveillance, reconnaissance and intelligence collection against India -- and would highlight how U.S.-led sanctions are exacerbating regional-security challenges by pushing military-ruled Myanmar into China's strategic lap.
full story:The militarization of the Coco Islands will extend China's growing penetration of Myanmar, which serves Beijing as a strategic gateway to the Indian Ocean, an important source of natural resources and a major market for its arms exports.
To bypass the narrow Malacca Strait between Peninsular Malaysia and the Indonesian island of Sumatra, Beijing has been investing heavily in the China-Myanmar Economic Corridor. The initiative includes a deep-sea port at Kyaukpyu and seeks to facilitate direct energy imports overland into Yunnan province.

Secret bases everywhere. Nobody knows where they are. It's crazy.
Silence, exile, and cunning.
