Jiangxinpo

Jiangxinpo (Chinese: 江心坡) is an area in Kachin State, Myanmar, located between the N'Mai and Mali Rivers, west of the Gaoligong Mountains of Yunnan, China. It was disputed territory between China and Myanmar until 1961, when China's government recognized Myanmar's sovereignty over it. Some Chinese commentators, especially those in media in Taiwan and overseas which are outside the control of PRC government's censorship, criticized the PRC government for signing the agreement, which they regarded as guaranteeing the permanent loss of former Chinese territory to Myanmar.
