Myanmar's military leader Min Aung Hlaing shakes hands with Chinese Foreign Minister Wang Yi during their meeting on Aug 14, 2024, in Naypyitaw, Myanmar. ADELAIDE, Australia: Just as the legal noose tightens on the leader of Myanmar’s military junta, with a request for an arrest warrant from the chief prosecutor of the International Criminal Court, the Chinese government seems to be extending a hand of support.

Private security corporations and private military corporations are increasingly employed by a wide range of governments as a way of projecting influence and power in other countries without the diplomatic complexities that come with deploying traditional military forces.
There are reportedly already four Chinese private security corporations operating in Myanmar, but the new joint security company is likely to expand the scope and numbers of these operations. While private security corporations are nominally separate from China’s People Liberation Army , there is little to stop the PLA from infiltrating these organisations and influencing their operations on the ground.
For Myanmar’s junta, the involvement of Chinese security forces would be an embarrassing recognition that it is unable to provide even rudimentary security for its chief ally’s economic and strategic interests.
