The fence was built to prevent Burmese from sneaking into China to work, and the novel Coronavirus from entering China, Said Amu.

Novel Coronavirus imported from Abroad is not the main reason behind the Chinese government’s building of a high wall on the Border between China and Myanmar, the commander of scholars focusing on China-Myanmar relations said in an interview with Radio Free Asia on Monday.
The commander said, “China built this wall, not overnight, but through very careful planning.” In the past, it was easy to cross the border between China and Vietnam and Myanmar, so people from both countries were in China today, and went to Vietnam tomorrow, or even back and forth the same day. Another purpose of the wall is to prevent the exodus of Chinese citizens, a trend that China does not want to continue.
