#1 All dictators expect the US to invade. It makes them feel important.

#2 ...or they need to misdirect general public's attention from the domestic scene. Probably devised some scheme how to screw Myanmarese even more.

#3 Methinks Myanmar wants in on US trade goodies, ala USA and Pakistan, Philippines, India, unified Vietnam, etc, espec to counter arch-rival Thailand. For the longest time, Burma was a neglected foster child of America - Thailand got the econ trade and US B-52's, etal. based at Utapao, Burma got the refugees. What we're seeing is Burma's warning that either the US-West give it its due, or they switch to Russia-China and the SCO - as wid anti-Everybody/China Commie Vietnam, the USA should get there before its too late. While we're there, should add in Bangladesh for good measure.
