2011年9月30日，缅甸总统吴登盛突然宣布搁置中缅合作兴建的密松水电站，凸显了中国企业海外投资和中国周边外交的困境与尴尬。随着缅甸在中国能源供应链条上不断加重的地位、缅甸渐进的政治变革，以及缅甸与美国、日本、印度等大国关系的改善，中缅之间的非对称关系发生了一些细微的变化，这将给中国在缅甸的战略利益带来巨大挑战。因此，中国亟须适时调整其对缅甸的应对策略。与此同时，中国海外投资企业也要从中吸取经验和教训。
On 30 September 2011，Myanmar President Thein Sein announced that the Chinese-invested Myitsone dam would be halted during his tenure，highlighting the predicament and embarrassment of China’s overseas investment and China’s neighboring diplomacy.With Myanmar’s increasingly role in China’s energy security，its gradual political reform and its improved relations with the United States，Japan，India and other powers，the asymmetric relations between Myanmar and China have undegone some subtle changes.This will bring enormous challenges to China’s strategic interests in Myanmar.So，China urgently needs to adjust its policies toward Myanmar.At the same time，Chinese overseas investment enterprises should also draw some lessons from this.
