Sino-Indian defence expert says Chinese aggresive move is to show off "self-confidence".

“I think it was a tactical move by the PLA to obtain a stronger toehold… they need supplies in that very inhospitable terrain.” But the “sensational reportage” in the Indian media meant that the Chinese population, particularly its nationalistic younger lot, picked it up. And they want their government not to appear weak.

“I read this morning an article in the Chinese media where they used the term ‘zi xin’. It means self-confidence. The domestic population thinks China needs to be more “self-confident”. I don’t think any Indian newspaper or anyone else would say that China is not being self-confident!” she smiled.

“My concern for the Indian side is that if it waits too long to define its larger strategic view, in terms of what its interests are, the Chinese discourse will dominate the discussion.”

We haven't breeded 60 crore people in the UP-Bihar-Bengal belt for nothing. Our chances of intruding into Tibet are higher than the Chinese intruding into UPBB belt.

Genius in making mistakes
i know government is hell corrupted and blah blah blah..but for them, being in this area (south Asia) and dealing with disgusting/immature neighbours like pak n china who are jealous of every neighboring country's progress is not at all easy..when u r in US/canada or Aus/nz, they just want progress and have no time in such crappy moves like crossing borders and making tents...pak n china are nothing but idiots...

mustard loving babumosais don't really love being rules by foreigns, may be u should know there were more bombing and firing against british in calcutta and undivided bengal than whole indian subcontinent from the 2nd half of 19th century (be it in urban/rural/jungle/river or anywhere else). it was so intense that they first divided bengal province and next, moved their capital to delhi.

anyways, what bugs me is we are not getting what measure is our govt taking for this border crossing case. and how they can leave the borders unguarded like that - sometimes the pakistanis, sometimes chinese people are just crossing borders and making camps whenever they wish, wherever they wish. i get the area is very cold, next to inhabitable, but why dont make underground tunnels & camps at important places ? its not like they will get destroyed by avalanche now and then. and to the fact, the chinese do already have those at their side, with much better supplies and infrastructures.
where our taxpayers monies are going to ?

This was clearly sarcasm and a taunt at our government for being so spineless.

Fourth flag meeting fails; China refuses to budge from Ladakh
The way China has been occupying Aksai Chin and Tibet for so long, I don't see them budging.

We couldn't even remove Pakistan from Azad Kashmir and the northern areas of Gilgit and Baltistan.

Our soldiers at the moment are more than capable of handling threats from both China and Pakistan simultaneously. But at the moment means at the moment. The way the government is handling the armed forces right now mean 10 years later this statement may not be true.

So the only time available for the government to grow a bloody spine is now. We need to talk tough now, or else we wont be in a position next time to do so.
