DURING A VISIT to several Southeast Asian countries in August 1981, Chinese Premier Zhao Ziyang sought to assure their leaders that China did not intend to interfere in their internal affairs. Addressing the highly sensitive question of Chinese support for insurgent communist parties in these countries, Zhao claimed that relations between the Chinese Communist Party and these parties were political and moral and that China do its utmost to see that the problems left over from the past would not hinder the development of relations with Southeast Asian countries.' Zhao's statements continue a gradual process of Chinese downgrading of ties with the insurgent parties that has been occurring since the mid-1970s. This article seeks to explain the reasons for China's withdrawal of support and will then examine relations between China and the respective parties from the mid-1970s to the present.
