Significance
Most notable are those on the China-Myanmar oil pipeline and the Kyaukphyu Special Economic Zone (SEZ).
Impacts
Continuation of the Myitsone dam impasse will compound Myanmar’s shortfall of electricity generation capacity.
Resuming Chinese megaprojects in Myanmar risks more protests, with the NLD government caught between China and Myanmar’s people.
The next test of Myanmar’s ethnic minorities peace process will be at the next Panglong peace talks in May.
