The Hindu: Myanmar denies charge
6 May, 1998
 
Myanmar today denied the Indian Defence Minister, Mr. George Fenandes'
statement that China had built a sophisticated electronic surveillance
base on a Myanmar island from where Beijing could monitor Indian defence
activity.
 
"It is regretful that India's Defence Minister chose to claim without
substantial evidence that China is using Myanmar's Coco Island for
strategic defence measures," a statement from the ruling Myanmar military
junta said. (Reuters)
