Why China has it wrong on Myanmar

This is a good point. China is missing a golden opportunity and it doesn't make any sense on the surface.

This could be the best international PR coup for China in years and they're letting it slip through their fingers.
China, in the face of the latest unrest in Myanmar, has reverted to its traditional stance of non-interference in another country's internal affairs, despite its extensive clout and commercial interests there. The opportunity exists, though, for Beijing to enhance its image considerably by putting pressure on the generals, and in the process distinguish itself from regional rival India, which prefers to look the other way.
