Threatened by Dragon,What will the Tiger do?
I hope most of you have come across an article in newspapers of 12th August 2009 which stated that Chinese strategist have stated on its semi official website that China should work towards breakin India into smaller 20-30 nations.This being semi official site with there being a lot of censure about what is posted publicly by the Chinese people it is hard to accept that this article written for the people of China since it was in Chinese language,did not have approval of Chinese authority.In addition to it the person writting such aricles has lot intricate knowledge about the Chinese strategy and authority suggesting that he himself is some high ranking official of Chinese government.He also has a detailed knowledge about India suggesting the deep penetration of Chinese intelligence within India.Considering these factors together does add some crediblity to the theory that China may indeed be planning such an acitvity. The statement giving initally by the external affairs minstry of India was that they have made their dissent about this article known to authorites in Beijing and are awaiting the official word of Chinese government regarding this article.They later declared that China has infromed the Indian MEA that they were planning no such thing and the article was opinion of an induvidual.They also stated that the said article has been removed from the website. This all is well and good, but what remains to be asked to the Indian MEA is, are we going to take the word of Chinese authorities on this issue?Does a government wishing to conduct such acitvity openly declare that they are planning such activity?These actions are part of clandestine operations.They are never declared but conducted in secrecy,through covert and underhanded methods.Besides Chinese have a bad record of keeping their word,and we have a bad record for falling for their word.Should we not learn from history? Our governments may proclaim that Indiaand China are not rivals, but yet it does not change the fact that we are indeed rivals.During cold war era US and USSR never fought an open war.Thier leaders too were always involved in talks ranging on various issues,including trade.Yet it never changed the fact that USSR and US were rivals.Similarly whatever talks India may involve itself with Pakistan and China,it is a fact that they will be rivals.China has already demonstrated how serious they are about this rivalry when they exported substandard pharmacueticals branded as made in India.They do not care about the collateral damage as long as they bring India down.Therefore we need to be prepared for China conducting operations to break apart India. Offense is said to be best defense.The only way to offset this plan of China would be for us to pre-empt it with strikes of our own.I am not talking about conventional warfare strikes. China is a communist state with a dictatorial rule.There is dissatisfaction amongst the Chinese simmilar to that within the USSR. When it comes to freedom of the people China has bad record.So is its record concerning human rights.China too has many rivals arond the region,mainly Japan and Republic of China(Taiwan). There are regions that are forcefully dominated by the PRC, like the Tibetean Autonomus Region.There also the Chinese colonies of Macau and Hong Kong. The division within China is not so obvious as it is with Indiadue to dictatorial rule which suppress any reactionary forces within the nation.There are also the suprresion of minority. There are tensions between the Uyghur people of Xinjiang province.Same is the case with Tibet. Inner Mongolia also largely ignores the needs of the locals in its development projects. These examples show that China itself is not without internal troubles and a bit of slip over the controls by the Communist Party of China could very well lead to destrcution of CPC and liberation of various forcibly controlled regions in China.Eepecially the Xinjiang province within which lies the Aksai Chin and Tibet within China claimms Arunachal Pradesh to belong.India houses the leader of Tibet , the Dalai Lama.That has promoted friendly connections with Tibetean government in exile.Breaking China up is all about causing a economic breakdown within China which is possible if Indian industries stop outsourcing to China and stop the import of Chinese goods.It is time to think about something more important than personal satisfaction,because if China suceeds in its plans India will be too vulnerable to foriegn rule and annexation.That would be more lethal for people of India. Also if India can use the traditional rivals of China and a bit of direct interfernce,China will collapse upon itself.Right now we have a pro-India government in Nepal which had been moving towards China for sometime now.We must do our best in securing their alliance to India by providing them aid in development activity.Also we should venture forth in the South-East Asia securing the alliance with Myanmar and Malaysia by investing in devloment activities there.We should disable the base of Chinese alliance around India breaking ourselves from the ring of fire we are in..It is time India gave up is infighting and stood upto to China and not only secure the territory of Arunachal Pradesh which China is trying to take from India but take back the territory of Aksai Chin which we lost to China in 1962.It is time we stop waiting for China to stab us in our backs like they did in 1962 and prevent them from implementing their plans of breaking India. Its time for Our Nation to unite against a common external enemy and a threat to soverignity of Our Country that the Chinese pose.
