WHY IS DRAGON MIFFED AND IS TIGER SLEEPING?


INDIA-CHINA STANDOFF IN LADAKH

Let us Analyse why?

The First Point of Worry for China.
American multinational corporations and companies are moving out of China.Thanks to President Trump's encouragement, a plethora of these firms are relocating to India.The recent Modi's "Atmanirbhar Bharat Abhiyan Economic" Stimulus package is very strategic because it attracts FDI to India in several ways, if nothing else. With the USA being one of India's Largest Foreign Investors, this economic stimulus package makes India economically very attractive.Among others, another nation that will invest in India is Japan who is reportedly at present incentivizing its firms to leave China.
India therefore stands at advantage and can diversify imports and break free from China and can overcome Chinese bullying India for goods.
For India, President Trump should win the upcoming American Presidential Elections.Joe Biden will do very little for India.His personal ties and lenient policies towards China that have come out on public record will only weaken India-USA relations.Further, if Biden is elected,China will be able to continue its nationalist agenda.
The Second Point of Worry for China.
More than 134 countries have signed a resolution which seeks an investigation to learn the origin of the Coronavirus Covid 19 disease.If China is blamed,there will certainly be severe consequences for President Xi Jinping.Now with India elected to Chair the World Health Organization's decision-making Executive Board,against all opposition from China;Xi Jinping is having sleepless nights since then.
The Third Point of Worry for China.
One of the most significant multilateral Naval engagements in recent times took place in the South China Sea.
The Warships from the United States Navy,the Japan Maritime Self-Defense Force,the Philippines Navy,and the Indian Navy for the first time demonstrated their serious presence in that region.
The Fourth Point of Worry for China.
It is a long story,but suffice to state,that China is gradually losing its grip over Hong Kong and unable to assert its supremacy over Taiwan.The world powers are soon going to step in to prevent Chinese hegemony.
India-China Standoff in Ladakh.
The Galwan Valley and Pangong Tso Lake.
Indian and Chinese troops appear to be heading towards a very serious Face-Off in several areas along the Line of Actual Control(LAC).
The Indian Army has increased its Military Strength in Pangong Tso and Galwan Valley,the two most extremely contentious areas today between the two nuclear powers and are resorting to aggressive patrolling in several very sensitive areas including Demchok and Daulat Beg Oldi.
Since the time BJP and Modiji has come into power,the military infrastructure and hard black top wide roads have been built till the LAC in Ladakh.In these two areas of dispute,the Chinese does not enjoy a good approachable road network.
Over approximately past 10 days,on large part of Galwan valley which includes a portion of Ladakh region;the Chinese troops have entered about 4 km inside the Indian territory.The Galwan valley was an area of stiff standoff during the 1962 war with China.The Indian Army Combat Troops have also been moved in heavy strength and have deployed themselves very close in front and in eyeball to eyeball contact with the Chinese.It is an high altitude difficult area,and the situation is explosively very tense between the two Armies.It is assessed that the Chinese are preparing to lay claim on this area including portion of Ladakh;and make things difficult for India internationally.There are presumably 5,000-10,000 Chinese troops in that area today.The Galwan valley has the Galwan river flowing from the disputed Aksai Chin Region,a largely barren area extending from Ladakh to Xinjiang Region of China.
The most beautiful landscape, where I happen to serve at height nearing and ranging from 15000 to 19000 ft.
The Importance of Pangong Tso Lake.
I happen to camp for months near this lake as my military deployment. the interesting landmark near the lake is one Garnet Hill, a high altitude mountain, made of pure Garnet Gemstones.The entire mountain shines and glitters like stars during Sunshine,as Garnets are precious Gemstones.These gemstones have been collected by me from that area in plenty as souvenir, to form part of memory of my days in that most beautiful place.
This has always been the flash point area between the two armies.it is the longest lake,approximately 135 km long spread over 604 sq km in boomerang shape and is 6-10 wide;it is the biggest high altitude lake in the world,almost like huge big sea.The lake is lifeless and you cannot drink it's water.
Chinese have Warships and Gunboats deployed here.
The recent incidents of conflict between the two powerful nation involved a show of force and projection by using Helicopters,Fighter Jets,Gunboats,Fistfights and Injurious,a straight out of blockbuster James Bond movie.
The disputed LAC is 3488 km long for India,but the Chinese only recognise 2000 km of LAC.
The strategic value and importance of this lake is,it gives the Chinese the path of Chushul Approach for any offensive into India.

This Time Dragon's Neck Will Be In Tigers Jaw.

Ladies and Gentlemen,
The situation is extremely tense in the Ladakh region of India.But remember Modiji is a world's Top Class Strategist, Planner and Negotiator.He will succeed to defuse the tension by his Diplomacy.If the results are not conducive to our interest,India this time will not hesitate to militarily evict the Belligerent Chinese by force.The Indian Army is annoyed because the Chinese have disturbed the peaceful understanding by disrupting the status quo.
Preparation are on at very serious note, a mere spark can ignite a major conflict.
