Great Coco Island (Myanmar)

Myanmar / Ayeyarwady / Labutta /
The island is also known as Greater Coco Island (Myanmar). According to the 1992 agreement signed by China and Myanmar, China leased it as potential military installations. The outline follows the beach line at unknown tide level and does not include three nearby islets (northeast, east and south), each about 30 m wide.

  • china is a hostile nation and a potential troublecreator not only for SE Asia but for the whole world.
  • this is big mistake created by Mr. Nehru to gift the Coco islands to Myanmar. Now Chinese presence in the islands is very dangerous for the security and stability of the region, particularly India is well concerned and anxious. China may create rift and may balancing act against india.
