why has the chinese government invited aung san suu kyi here? they are sending a strong message and it's this: aung san suu kyi could have a major say in who so become the next leader of myanmar. now myanmar and china in the past have enjoyed very, very close relations. touring the dark days, china was about the only friend had a myanmar had. in 2011 the government in myanmar cancelled a dam projects built with chinese money. that caused a lot of anger and embarrassment here in beijing. but there was a conflict inside the be be border of myanmar and ethnic leaders a bomb was dropped killing some five chinese citizens, so awngs aung san suu kyi is here trying to mend fences because china is a very important trading partner of myanmar. >> elections are to be held in moimple in november. what does this mean politically myanmar in november. what does this mean politically for aung san suu kyi? >> they are setting the stage now for potentially the league being in a much more powerful position than it is now. so i think it's hedging and that's why it'
