"Myanamr is willing to keep in touch with China over compensation for the victims and injured and make proper arrangement," he said. "Myanmar will ensure those involved in the incident are accountable for and published in accordance with law, strengthen domestic management to prevent similar incidents from happening."

Wang said both sides have had a clear understanding of the incident and those who should be accountable for after the joint investigation and rounds of talks. He urged Myanmar to take this incident seriously and properly deal with it so as to protect the overall bilateral ties.

Both foreign ministers agreed to work to maintain stability on the border and to develop China-Myanmar comprehensive strategic partnership.

Chinese Air Force has increased patrolling over the border since the incident.

Myanmar government earlier offered 70,000 yuan ($11,222) in compensation to each of the families of those killed in the bombings. 

The MNDAA struck a truce with the government which lasted until 2009, when government troops took over their region in a conflict that pushed tens of thousands of refugees into China's Yunnan province.
