Rakhine, one of the poorest states in Myanmar, is receiving huge investment as part of China's Belt and Road Initiative. A pipeline to China is already in place. A special economic zone, including new ports and an industrial park, is also planned. However, land acquisitions for these new links between Myanmar and China are sparking opposition. Reporting from a region that's out of bounds to most news organizations, we look at the massive impact of China's growing economic power on the lives of Rakhine people.
