China aware of sensitivity around Teesta project


China is serious about implementing the Teesta River Comprehensive Management Project but is also cautious due to the sensitivities it holds, said Chinese Ambassador to Bangladesh Li Jiming yesterday.

"But I have to be frank… that the Chinese side is a bit reluctant about this project. The reason is the sensitivity we sensed," Jiming said at a seminar on "National Image of China in Bangladesh" organised by the Centre for Genocide Studies (CGS) at a city hotel.


"Also, probably I should not say that, but also, I personally worry if the Bangladesh government will swing position later on, with… outside pressure, or not, I am not sure. I am not sure."

The Chinese envoy said if China decided to go ahead with the project and then Bangladesh decided not to after "someone's suggestions that it is again another case of Chinese debt trap, or there is particular geopolitical sensitivity", it would put him in a very awkward position.

In July 2020, Bangladesh sought a $983 million loan from China to implement the project. The government is to provide about $130 million of the total project cost.

The project involves dredging the river for navigability, building strong embankments, townships, industries on two sides of the river, water reservoirs, and irrigation facilities.

Most of the 1,11,000 hectares of irrigable land in the Teesta basin cannot be cultivated during dry season. In 2013-14, only 35 percent of the irrigable area was cultivated, according to officials concerned.

Jiming visited the Teesta river in Rangpur on October 9 as he wanted to make sure if local government and people wanted the project.

"Fortunately, all the messages that I got from that trip is extremely positive," he said, adding that he would send a message to his colleagues in Beijing that the people were eager about the project, something that would help build confidence among the Chinese officials.

The Teesta water sharing deal could not be signed, though it was ready in 2011, due to opposition from Indian Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee.

Jiming said China was actively engaged in finding ways to help Rohingya repatriation. "We are working silently. We are doers, not talkers," he said.

After recent border violations by Myanmar, China reached out to Myanmar in response to Bangladesh's request, he said, adding that he would officially let Bangladesh know about it.

Chinese dithering may be warranted because the CCP folks realize how beholden to Indian Sanghis Hasina is.

This is also why we won't be getting any advanced fighters like J10 from China anytime soon. Too many RAW agents in our armed forces. Especially the sell outs at the top brass in the Army. Pathetic.

Who knows! But I'm surprised by the news!

However I found this interesting news in an article of Gautam das!

বড় নয়া মেরুকরণ শুরু, উভয় সঙ্কটে ভারত!

Here is the news link from the article!


Also a news from last month from Indian source!



On the other hand from few months if you observe Bangladeshi politics, all calculations have been altered. Suddenly BNP got might to start mas movement in against BAL govt!

They are gathering massive people! But even few months ago the party even could not stand on road 3 minutes!

Suddenly from where they got the power?

If you look you will see BNP jamat alliance is terminated and now even Hummam Kader Chowdhry is under pressure inside BNP after shouting Naraye Takbir allahu Akbar!

সাকা চৌধুরীর ছেলের স্লোগান নিয়ে বিএনপি নেতারা যা বললেন​


Here is an article ( before the previous one) of Gautam Das!

ফ্যাসিবাদ-মুক্ত হবার শর্ত কী আমেরিকার বার্মা দখলে সামিল হওয়া!


Is the establishment trying to lean towards American bloc and also want to replace the current BAL regime with a pro American side?

@Bilal9 Bhai , it looks things aren't as simple as we see with bare eyes!

Any unbelievable thing can happen in world politics , because simply there is no permanent ally or enemy in international politics!

You can take a look ( thoroughly) and and perhaps you can to draw a conclusion from all such articles and news links!

Bother Bilal!

Don’t worry! Teesta will be implemented once next election is safely rigged Florida style.

It would have been implemented by now if US hadn’t threatened Hasina.

Hasina needs Hinduvta scums to rig the election.

But once it’s rigged - Hasina will go back to the Chinese. She is firmly in the Chinese camp.

However, you can bet it will not be implemented if Hasina is out of power.

Any BNP or “unity government” will be anti China and pro USA.

Even Pakistan always maintained good relationship with both side. How can you say that BNP or unity govt will be totally anti China?

They will not. Because international relationship doesn't work like this. You need to stud more on this.
Hasina needs Hinduvta scums to rig the election.
This time Hindutva won't do it for her. Perhaps you didn't hear that they said they aren't with any specific person , but they are with the people of Bangladesh!!

It's bogus no doubt that they are with us , but the reality is they are not with BAL nowadays.

Watch every talk show of Hindutva scum Govinda Pramanic. You will see how they want Hasina fall!

Besides, armed forces won't let any rigging this time. USA is losing it's position as only super power, so they become concerned!

Now what if they sanction armed forces?

Armed forces can't go to peace keeping mission and the only source of their good earning ( for most officers and soldiers) , that will let them live a middle class life after retirement, and why they will take the risk of losing it? So perhaps it's time to open the eyes!

Don’t worry! Teesta will be implemented once next election is safely rigged Florida style.
Yes , but who said that BAL must remain in power in order to do it? China damn care BAL or anyone.

Remember what happened to BNP after opening Taiwan consulate in Bangladesh?

Your “analysis” is always based on a wing and a prayer. Hardly ever on facts.

Pakistan is not a very good example of - how to conduct a clever and cunning foreign policy.

Pakistan tends to hover from being an exclusive whore of China or USA. Imran Khan even tried it with Russia - with disastrous consequences.

And thus gets screwed.

In the 1980s and 2000s - it was an exclusive whore of USA and let itself become the centre of the so called war on terror.

It then went in exclusively with China. Antagonised India and fought and lost more battles. Got in too deep with belt and road as well.

If Bangladesh is to develop - it is essential that BD keeps USA at a safe distance. Otherwise USA will inevitably get BD involved in their wars and will get screwed. They are now pushing BD to attack Burma and become America’s proxy. That would achieve the unique feat of alienating both India and China!

Get this through your head!!!

Bangladesh absolutely cannot develop without India and China being its biggest trading partners.

Only India can supply BD with cheap raw materials and only China can build the infrastructure at the price BD can afford.

Your USA cannot do either!!

Geopolitics is a topic that few in this sub-section or the forum in general have the ability to understand to a good enough level to make informed posts.

While it is good that people are interested in this area, sometimes it is better to spend time with less brain-intensive pursuits like for example video-games.

People ask why spend money on a western education.

Apart from being superior - it forces you to be dispassionate.

I thoroughly despise Hinduvta and our engagements with India. But, at the same time, I cannot deny reality!

South Asian people are far too emotional and superstitious - which leads them to self harming acts.

Luckily, Bangladeshi Muslims are not as extreme as Hindus or Pakistani Muslims.

Which is why we ended up conquering Bihar, Orissa to Assam and Arakan. Hindus were only able to take those territories back with the aid of the British!!!

Hindus and Pakistanis are now waging their wars on the streets of Britain.

Good post

The US really no longer has the money to develop friendly countries like i did in the first 40 years after second world war.

What American can provide is 1st class weapons and access to its huge consumer market.

The ones on this sub-section tend to be the more emotional and less intellectual types.

Luckily Hasina has totally sidelined them in the power structure of BD and so BD is able to grow at best it can by leveraging India - China - USA against one another.

BD must be the only country in the world that is playing these 3 large countries successfully against each other for its advantage!

I would not worry too much about USA being able to overthrow Hasina etc as they are not as powerful as some think and BD is on good terms with both India and China.

Being an US ally means fighting its proxy wars with expensive US weapons. Stupid Paks fell for it 🤣

Even NATO countries, Korea and Japan is finding that untenable.

Idiotic Europeans antagonised Russia with aggressive expansion of NATO at America’s behest.

And now USA has abandoned Europeans - who are facing a long period of depression due to the fallout from the Ukraine war.

Whilst Uncle Sam is sitting pretty.

It’s not too late for India, South Korea and Japan to accept China as the regional power - instead of going into an arms race at USA’s behest. It will only lead to their ruination and profit US military industrial complex.

Hasina, ofcourse, understands all this unlike our arm chair generals and diplomats 🤣🤣🤣

Who wet dream about fighting India and Burma with US and French fighter jets 🤣🤣🤣🤣

It's yours actually. As you are generalizing that BNP or national unity or Reza kibria = pro west. So perhaps you should clean your house first!

When BAL was pro China before getting Chinese loan to loot and doing some development? Never! But that's different argument!


If Bangladesh is to develop - it is essential that BD keeps USA at a safe distance. Otherwise USA will inevitably get BD involved in their wars and will get screwed. They are now pushing BD to attack Burma and become America’s proxy. That would achieve the unique feat of alienating both India and China!
Why you become so desperate? Who actually wants to go to close to USA? Me or others?

I am just stating the fact that, it really doesn't matter what we prefer we have no value. In the end if you enraged armed forces , you can't survive doesn't matter who you are , period.

So why you are trying to put words into my mouth? Wasn't it me who always prefer China over USA?

But will it bring any results? Do I have this power to do decide ? So does that really matter if I'm ( or others are!) pro China or pro west?

In the end establishment is dependents upon military ( from behind) , police , administration and rich business people.


What if business people are under threat and what about theives who send their crime money to west? What if west freeze their money?

Will they ( criminals and rich ) still be supporting current regime?

Instead of coming to the point , you are beating around the bush. I'm nothing , neither my opinions are ! But will theory let the govt stay in power?

I hope my position is clear now? So I don't have to quote the rest part of your message!

Yes video gamers idea correct. And that's the reason I got an idea from this forum where I get the idea of Bangladesh armed forces annexing part of Arakan to create another Muslim country. 🤣

Remember you are the one who had the wet dream? It was a video gamers idea of course, every sane person knows it!

Yes and now the govt actually may face the consequence of playing with fire! They ( your BAL) really aren't interested to annex Arakan like you after all ! 😆
