China Pushes New Economic Corridor Linking Bangladesh and Myanmar — India Watching Closely
Times of India·Friday, 3 July 2026
China is pushing for an economic corridor connecting Bangladesh and Myanmar, similar in structure to the China-Pakistan Economic Corridor. The plan was discussed during Bangladesh PM Tarique Rahman's visit to China, and Beijing is also developing the Mongla port in Bangladesh. China has said other nations could join what it calls a 'transnational initiative.'
