Myanmar Population Density Map 2013This article discusses the plan and construction of the Sino-Myanmar transport corridor and analyzes its implication from four dimensions: history, regional cooperation, China’s overall strategy and Yunnan’s perspective. 

The corridor is one part of an ambitious scheme that will put the provincial capital of Kunming at the center of a regional free trade zone. It will not only further integrate two countries’ economy but combine both political and strategic interests. Thus, it contains India’s influence in Myanmar, and finally expands its strategic influence into Southeast Asia and the Indian Ocean.
