Thread: China, Future superpower

There can be different opinion about the Chinese in Tibet.

Yet, for a very long time, Tibet had conceded 'suzerainty' of China.

The British realised the importance of Tibet to their interest and hence organised treaties and drew the MacMohan Line. The Chinese claim that these treaties were 'unequal' and hence dispute the line.

Yet, in so far as India is concerned, Nehru agreed on Tibet's suzerainty over Tibet, though not that the MacMohan line was disputable.

Even if you feel the Chinese are 'dragons', you have to concede that they are wise and know exactly how to ensure the advancement of their national interst without upsetting all too much. Thus, they have settled Hans not only in Tibet but also in Xinjaing.

They are wiser than Indians. They won't have a Kashmir!

Nehru loved riding the moral high horse.

The Chinese don't believe in the saying -

Bamboo, bamboo in the grass,
Why are you not up my ar*e (as*, US spelling).
