Guo Yezhou: Terror Acts and Vice Minister

guo yezhou: China supports Myanmar's efforts in safeguarding peace and stability in this region and hoped all areas, including Rakhine state, will realize peace, stability and development, Guo told reporters at a news conference on the sidelines of the party's national congress, which is held once every five years, according to Metro News. Most of the approximately 600,000 who have fled the Myanmar military attacks into Bangladesh lived in Rakhine. Beijing condemns violence and terror acts and backs measures to restore order, said the vice minister of the party's International Department, Guo Yezhou, apparently referring to attacks by Rohingya rebels on Myanmar security forces. Beijing has longstanding close ties to the Myanmar military leaders who ran the country for decades, and Guo emphasized what he called friendly relations between China's communists and political parties in Myanmar, which lies on China's southern border. China and Myanmar are friendly neighbouring countries joined by rivers and mountains. China believes Myanmar's government and people are capable of handling the situation without outside help, Guo said. (www.immigrantscanada.com). As reported in the news.
