    Yes, this is the winning strategy that nations on the margins settled on during the first cold war. A policy of dual-alignment, flirting with both superpowers to extract concessions and offers. The powers in Myanmar have made it clear they don't want to be in China's sphere, unless of course China has a really great offer. It works great as long as the superpowers don't get so riled up you become a stage for a proxy war.
