China is Myanmar's largest trading partner and its biggest source of foreign investment. China has invested 25 billion US dollars in the country. This accounts for nearly half of its total foreign investment, and is three-and-a-half times the investment of the US, Japan and Europe combined. Most of China's investment has been aimed at infrastructure construction and improving regional connectivity.

Suu Kyi's visit is expected to strengthen their economic relations even further. They're expected to work together to construct a strategic bridge near their border, as well as two hospitals in Myanmar. The China-funded 3.6 billion dollar Myitsone dam project, which has been stalled since 2011, is also a topic of discussion during Suu Kyi's visit.
