Sino-Indian Experts not fazed by US call for India to 'lead' Asia

[darkinsky]

clinton is so assertive to india that she has forgotten her own country

Clintons playing the Divide and Conquer game.

Assertive? With MMS on top? Yeah and I am the next emperor of Japan. !

As long as we have a puppet on our throne assertiveness seems pretty farfetched....

 

[aakash_2410]

Typical American diplomat! They always try to 'seduce' the leaders of wherever they go. They just need to say 'Namaste' and 'Dhanyavad' in Hindi and all the politicians go crazy!

I don't think India should be 'TOO ASSERTIVE' right now. Let's just keep it low-key until next decade or so.

First MMS should be more assertive in Congress !! Being assertive in Asia only BJP can do !

You should be thankful to have a statesman like MMS in charge instead of some hot-headed, jingoistic nutjob. India is like an old bus with a brand new, turbocharged engine. If you don't steer it carefully, and engage in reckless use of power, you are likely to rack up lots of dents and bruises.

As China looms, US tells India to lead Asia
HT Correspondent, Hindustan Times
Chennai/New Delhi, July 20, 2011

"It's time to lead." With these four words Hillary Clinton underlined why the relationship with the US is so important for India. Among all emerging economies, India is the one whose potential as a global player commands the most enthusiasm from Washington.

Speaking in Chennai, the US secretary of state said, "Much of the history of the 21st century will be written in Asia which, in turn, will be influenced by the partnership between the US and India and its relationship with neighbours."

Hinting at Washington's concerns about the Manmohan Singh government's foreign policy lassitude, she said, "This is not a time when any of us can afford to look inward at the expense of looking outward. This is a time to seize the opportunities of the 21st century and it is a time to lead."

She brushed aside the bilateral problems in the nuclear and defence areas: Like two different individuals, two different countries will have their differences.

Clinton, who has indicated that she will not be the US' face to the world after the Obama administration completes its first term next year, gave examples of where India could assert itself.

She said India could build a leadership role in the Asia-Pacific in forums like the East Asia Summit and the Asian Regional Forum, contribute more to maritime security, democracy promotion, "explore a new Silk Route" into Central Asia, support rebuilding Afghanistan and even help stabilise Pakistan.

India has been throned by the Queen of Universe. Every Asian nation should kneel down and hail the King of Asia!

In one single post you made us the queen of universe and the king of Asia ! But seriously we have no interests in these titles . These are more appropriate for China ! But India wont bow to you ! We will be assertive ! We wont let you throw your weight around !

you seem to be suffering from typical chinese superiority complex , the US never said that india is the leader of asia , it has just said that india is a regional power , india itself sees itself just as a leader of south asia ,not of asia , many times we have agreed that china is a lot ahead of us and we are trying to learn and improve ourself , BTW my personal opinion is that there is nothing called leader or superpower , when small nations like japan and germany can lead the whole world in the feilds of technology and innovation , there is a possibility that countries like indonesia or south korea could become the leaders of asia in future

We don't need leaders or Kings in Asia. Asia belongs to all Asian countries not for just one or two.

I believe its you and your countrymen who ought to be more thankful that we have a statesman like MMS. Quite frankly, his silly restraint is unreasonable.

That was an Idiotic post coming from an Indian. LTTE kicked your a*s out of Sri Lanka. Then went on to separate the head from you know whom. Your military ran off with tail behind the legs.

Are you paid to post this type of low class crap or is it just your hobby.
