Obviously, Myanmar’s new government does not want to aggravate sentiment in its already-unstable border areas, where rebel groups were using the dam project to rally new supporters. The new government’s effort to share power with political forces in Myanmar’s volatile regions, and thus weaken local warlords, clearly contributed to the decision to halt construction.
显然，缅甸新政府不愿意激化已然不安定的边境地区的情绪——叛军集团正在利用密松大坝项目召集新的支持者。新政府试图与缅甸动荡地区的政治势力分享权力从而削弱地方军阀，这显然也是叫停大坝建设的原因之一。
