China is speeding up the construction work of Kyaukphyu Port in Myanmar.

Dear reader,

China is busy building a big port in Myanmar, called the Kyaukphyu port. This is super close to where India is planning to have its new submarine base, INS Varsha.

Why does this matter? The port in Myanmar isn't just for docking ships; it could become a strategic location for China to monitor our naval activities closely.


So, why should you care? This is not just about ships and ports. It's about how big countries interact and keep an eye on each other.
