The people of Myanmar are rejecting the similar type of oppressive government used in most areas (rural) of communist China. 900 million Chinese live in extreme poverty in rural areas while the leaders of China live like kings.

Of course. And don't expect the Buddhists to do anything about it. They relish peace, but complain when they are oppressed. Silly. Most people deserve the governments that rule over them. Edit: As of 10/1 - 138 people were killed — more than 10 times the government figure — and 6,000 detained. Sad.

No, the PRC has already killed most of its monks decades ago.

At this point, I would say no. The biggest complaint from Myanmar citizens is the rampant corruption. The government has lost the complete trust of the people. The economy is closed so that doesn't help alleviate economic issues. Lastly, there's established political opponents to the government, like Aung San Suu Kyi. China's government is guilty of corrupt practices but most of the blame goes to the local provincial governments while the central national government is perceived as less corrupt. The economy is more open, so Chinese citizens can move (with the right paperwork) from rural areas to urban areas to find jobs. Lastly, I don't know of any famous Chinese dissident anymore... There's no Sun Yat-sen that talks against the Chinese government. It's hard to mobilize nationwide protests and revolts without a central figure. Eventually, I think China will adapt a more democratic system but it will take decades, and it won't look like the American system.

I understand your question differently from other people who has answered. Because you said "what will happen". I assume you are asking predition for future China. If that's the case, my answer is absolutely no. China is not a stickly communist government anymore and they are transforming into open market system years ago. Chinese Gross Domestic Product (GDP) is approaching to that of US and currently # 2. But will be the top in next few year. But does this help it poor people? I would say to a certain extend it does. However, although a super growing economy of China is not in a position to raise the standard of living to all it citizens. It will take very long time. There are very large population of poors in China and hopefully they will be better off someday without changing it political system. Changing it economics system is well enought to help their citizen. Burma case is abit different. It economy is going, everyone expect military offiers and their relatives. Utilizing all natural resources for their own good. Not a real open market (just a lie). Pluse they burnt thousands of villages, forcing people to leave Burma. The main different is China is approaching to the top whereas Burma is going to the bottom. So, it ain't going to happen in China. However, if you know 1989 uprising in China, you would definitely assume that it followed up after 1988 uprising of Burma.
