Also, Myanmar's power transfer has triggered wedge-driving rumors by some forces in an attempt to badmouth the China-Myanmar ties.
Considering the depth and width of the bilateral cooperation,these disturbances are no more than some growing pains almost inevitable to the two neighbors that share a long border of 2,200 kms.
It has increasingly become the consensus of both sides to settle these disputes by deepening their friendly communication, mutual trust and pragmatic cooperation.
Furthermore, the utmost urgency for the new Myanmar government is to develop economy and improve the people's livelihood.
As Myanmar's largest neighbor, investor and trading partner, China's role in Myanmar's future growth strategy and foreign policy is undisputable and will be highlighted more in this process.
A prosperous and stable Myanmar meshes well with China's interests. To support Myanmar's opening up to the world, China welcomes its riding on the coattails of China's robust growth, and its greater participation in the regional cooperative mechanisms, such as the Lancang-Mekong Cooperation, the China-ASEAN Free Trade Area and the Bangladesh-China-India-Myanmar Economic Corridor under the Belt and Road Initiative.
The two countries are now highly anticipated to release more good faith and develop the bilateral relations from a long-term strategic perspective, so as to steward their traditional friendship towards a more dynamic and pragmatic direction.
