If I Were Chinese Leaders...on Myanmar

This is the moment of international footwork on Myanmar. China should not only act it's special role, but must be seen to do so responsibly and respectfully. It has the track record, now, of the "moderating force" - thanks to its role in the North Korean nuclear talks.

If I were the Leaders of China, I will immediately and publicly announce a "Special Envoy to the Myanmar Process", who will work with the both the UN and ASEAN to restore peace and democracy to the reclusive and boiling nation. Things are getting pretty dangerous and tedious.

There is everything to play for in this venture. Including time.

President Hu Jintao should ACT now.
