#1 PAKISTANI DEFENCE FORUM > CHINA SUPPLIES ARMS TO CHINESE-SPEAKING ETHNICS IN BURMA [30,000-MAN UWSA = United Wa State Army]

POSTER/BLOGGER > opined that China does not want a pro-US-West, anti-China, Western-style democratic Govt-Regime in Burma aka Myanmar, + that China would prefer to see full-scale Civil War or pro-China insurgency break out in Burma than for the former to occur??? CHINA ARMS = CIVIL WAR OR INSURGENCY TO BREAK OUT IN BURMA WIDIN A FEW MONTHS???

and

* WORLD MILITARY FORUM > CHINA MAINLY RESPONSIBLE FOR STEADY DETERIORATION IN SINO-NORTH KOREAN RELATIONS.

ARTIC Nutshell > Beijing likes to overtly label Pyongyang = NOKOR as an "Ally", Partner", + "Sovereign", etc. BUT IN REALITY TREATS IT AS ANYTHING BUT.

* SAME > MONGOLIA TO ESTABLISH QUASI-ALLIANCE RELATIONSHIP WID NATO AGZ CHINA, vee NATO's
"Partnership for Peace" international programme.

ARTIC = NATO's move seen in Beijing as reducing China's influence in MOngolia in favor of NATO [read, US] + Mama Russia.
