China pushes forward its occupation of Burma
Cambodia, Laos...Now Burma
https://www.asiatimes.com/2019/11/artic ... s-rakhine/While many countries and companies remain squeamish about investing in the state, China and other regional giants have no such qualms.
Billions of cubic meters of gas and millions of barrels of oil from off-shore rigs are already pumped each year from here across the country to southern China.
Beijing is now poised to cement its grip on the area with the deep-sea port, signed off in November last year, and a colossal Special Economic Zone (SEZ) of garment and food processing factories.
In a nation run by swine, all pigs are upward-mobile and the rest of us are fucked until we can put our acts together: not necessarily to win, but mainly to keep from losing completely. HST
