China ties with Myanmar not uniform

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Wen Jiabao, China's premier, is to make an official visit to Myanmar this month, the first by a senior Chinese leader in nearly 10 years.

Provinces along the border often take their own decisions with regards to relations with Myanmar.
