New Delhi, Oct 21 (ANI): Trying to ease Beijing's concerns over the halting of a Chinese-funded mega dam, Myanmar's Vice-President Tin Aung Myint Oo has vowed to cooperate with China in seeking for a proper solution to the issue.
He made the pledge while meeting Premier Wen Jiabao on the sidelines of the 8th China-ASEAN Expo.
Wen pointed out that the implementation of Sino-Myanmar key projects conforms to the interests of both sides, the China daily reports.
The Chinese premier said the two countries should carry out the consensus reached by their leaders and fulfill the commitment to ensure a healthy and smooth growth of economic ties.
The meeting appeared to be another attempt to repair the damage to ties after Myanmar's President Thein Sein announced last month the suspension of the 3.6 billion dollar Myitsone Dam built and financed by a Chinese firm in the northern part of his country, which triggered a public rebuke from China.
Analysts noted that bilateral ties will continue to move forward as the suspension of the dam will not change the basic fact that China is currently the largest investor and trading partner of Myanmar. (ANI)
