#1 At least Burma (Myanmar) can feed its people. The country has no natural resources to speak of (except trees and heroin of a good, but not outstanding quality), and could use a nuclear reactor to produce electricity. There isn't much available anywhere in the nation, except a couple of larger cities. They'd have to have someone not only build it, but also run it - Myanmar isn't noted for intellectual development (their intellects usually either leave early, or end up in jail). I doubt they could build a nuke weapon even if they had the opportunity or desire. NKor's dud indicate they don't have the capability either.
