Burma in Biggest Uprising in 20 Years: The China Black
Swan
London, UK - 26 September 2007, 10:55 GMT
Dear ATCA Colleagues

ATCA conducts collective Socratic dialogue on global opportunities and threats.]
Myanmar, as Burma is now called, is in the midst of political unrest which
could have deep ramifications for China. China's ties with the military junta
ruling Burma go deep, and include expanding trade links, the sale of military
hardware and diplomatic support. However, Beijing does not want to be associated
with any crackdown and Chinese politicians are anxious to help stabilise the
political situation in Burma without the use of violence.
