Civil war for the last few years, with China flooding the area with arms via the Wa, who’ve been de facto independent for a long time and the PRC’s go between in the area.
Lots of ethnic groups and mostly continued interethnic violence and indepent movements for a long time. This is linked to the Rhoyinga (sp?) getting shunted into camps and pushed between countries.
Arakin Army is one of the big ones, along with the aforementioned Wa State.
China is now getting ready to send ground troops in, and set up favourable economic zones for Chinese economic imperial expansion.
Also famous for scam centres which have been the focus of Thai and Chinese authorities lately, and had been making money for criminals from those countries and paramilitary groups.
Alas, very little good.

Best summary. The people of Myanmar fight for their freedom while China is arming the suppressors.
