Communist China's fuedal mentality
by Shaan Nair on Feb 08, 2008 03:10 PM

It is unfortunate that China feels that enlarging the territorial boundaries remains the key to state power . It has border disputes with almost all of its neighbours which has often spilled into armed conflicts. It should understand that forcibly annexing territories are a thing of past , which is not feasible in today's world. The so called scholars are taken pains to explain the reasons behind the PMs visit to Arunachal ... is it so difficcult to understand that India has never subscribed to the theory that Arunachal belongs to China and it has been carrying out administration of the territory , So where is the question of Hawkish elements forcing the PM to visit a place that India considers well within its borders ? . the place being "internationally disputed" is from only chinese view point , not of the international comminity's !!! .
India should carry on a fast paced infra - development in the area to strengthen its integrity.
