Yeah, woke up and smelt the coffee and realised China has been kicked out of maldives, its in progress in Malaysia and cant do more jack shit in Sri Lanka. Oh wait, it tried, Tried to get Rajpaksa into office, he got thrown out again and Wickramsinghe still rules.
Looks like its u who needs to read some news. Yes Nepal is still a work in progress, we will get there, but Maldives is done deal.
Indonesia and Malaysia used to be pro china btw, how are they coming along?
Basically if u start to read some paper after smelling ur coffee in the morning, would realise that China has lost influence in IOR countries that are strategically located, Port in Malaysia near malacca strait gone, Deep sea port in Maldives for southern Indian Ocean gone and neither are there any hopes for military use of hambantota.
Whereas we get keep ours in Seychelles, and will be patrolling in Maldives territorial waters (Thank you for that China).
Their only remaining outpost in is Djibouti, and bad luck for them, US sits just 5 miles away from there.
China did, look what it got them, lost the influence they had built in these countries whereas we got ours back by spending peanuts compared to China's crapload of dollars. Why shall we make the same mistake of going out there ruthlessly whereas same results can be achieved with patience, our patience paid off.
That's peanuts, we just gave $1.4bn aid alongwith other assurances. it can certainly be done, do u really think they would say no?
We care about our interests in IOR. You would be wise to remember these words when ur debt becomes unsustainable and China refuses to bring in 3rd party (How's KSA's participation btw?)
Wise words. Money talks.
Why did Pakistan pulled out diamer bhasa dam out of North Indus cascade? didnt IK himself said that conditions are strict which would effectively hand over the control to China? Remember?
Yeah, Money talks, but only to a certain extent. China failed to realise that extent.
