There is a problem, fundamentally, in viewing the regime change in Bangladesh as a ‘stand-alone’ event. The caveat must be added right at the outset that when it comes to processing situations, nothing happens for no reason at all. There is very little awareness in India, especially in the media, about what has been going on. Mostly, it’s ‘cut-and-paste’ job culled out from the jaundiced western accounts from a new Cold War angle.

The Brotherhood Alliance ‘Operation 1027’ in Shan State
The Brotherhood Alliance seized over 30 military outposts in two days of fighting since it launched “Operation 1027” in northern Shan State on Oct. 27. The National Unity Government (NUG)* is cooperating with the Brotherhood Alliance and is preparing the People’s Defense Forces (PDF) in other regions and states to coordinate attacks against the military. Read the latest here.
The point of the attack: It is a route along the China-Myanmar Economic Corridor. and is the main route for transporting goods traded by China and Myanmar through the Muze and Qingshuihe border checkpoints. With an annual trading value of more than 5 billion US dollars, 8 days ago these routes were paralyzed. No one dared to travel through. especially cargo trucks Due to the fact that during normal times there must be transport of goods in and out. Thousands of vehicles follow these routes each day.
