KEY POINTS
· India, in all its wisdom, should find ways to support Naypyidaw for its critical requirements of systems and platforms like UAVs, surveillance systems and communication equipment.
· In addition, there is a need for dynamic economic engagement with Myanmar, to expedite the completion of the earlier agreement on the operationalisation of the Sittwe port, the establishment of an oil refinery and joint vaccine production facilities at a cost of $6 billion.
· Myanmar — regardless of who governs its polity — is not only the decisive lynchpin for India’s Act East policy but critical for the economic development and security of India’s Northeast.
· The attack on the Assam Rifles in Manipur’s Churachandpur, could in all probability be a manifestation of such a development.
· The humiliation which China faced in Eastern Ladakh has driven it to adopt a different modus operandi. To that end, active Chinese interest seems to be gearing itself towards fuelling insurgency in the Northeast.
· It is, therefore, of the utmost importance for India to positively engage Naypyidaw and stave off attempts to exploit Myanmar by countries inimical to India’s growth.
· Any ambiguity or delay in India’s constructive engagement with Myanmar would only serve the interests of anti-India forces.
