Myanmar/Burma civil conflict

Yunnan is still poor as hell and that's after all the money from the central government. Imagine the black hole of investment that Myanmar would be, on top of dealing with the unhappy locals. Development costs, education costs, infrastructure costs, security costs, all the costs would be through the roof. And for what, a port or two on the Indian Ocean? Terrible idea through and through.
True, but Yunnan is richer than most ASEAN countries, apart from Singapore, Brunei and Malaysia ... even richer than Indonesia by long shot

What exactly is "poor as hell"? I was in Kunming last year, and it looked like a pretty nice city to me.
