Actually.
To manipulate Myanmar's loans in Asia Dollar theoretically isn't difficult.
Just get them addicted to borrowing and they can't stop. When they can't pay back their loans, that's when the harvesting begins. That's exactly how the fellas in the United States and the European Union do it.
But there's a prerequisite, which is the purchasing power of Asia Dollar. Purchasing power is not the value of a currency, it's the ability to purchase goods and services.
After all, even if the Asia Dollar is valuable, if you don't have much to sell to Myanmar and they can't buy what they need elsewhere with it, only a fool would borrow Asia Dollar.
Not the time to operate an intermediary loan method like right now.
Tang Qing wouldn't want to do it again.
This lending has essentially brought Myanmar's debt size to an astonishing level. From a certain perspective, Myanmar's government balance sheet will look terrible due to this loan.
