China should learn at least one important thing from USA that You can't rule the world until there will be friendly relation with neighbour....imagine USA-Canada or USA-Mexico relation would have been like China-Japan,SK-NK orIndia-Pak and there would have been russian base near border...

Tawang is very famous tour site among my colleagues...many friends have gone there.
I am also planning to go tawang Will see the aggression of PLA

India seems like a country constantly on the look for a fight。

Hardly a day goes by without an Indian article written about a war with China。

The same can be said about China.

 

[GR!FF!N]

This poster's claim is backed by curry, green chillies, and dosas. The Parliamentary Standing Committee can go screw itself.

actually,its true...Tawang is one of the most heavily defended region in North East.This report simply highlights the fact that from Plain to Tawang,it takes more than a day to reach.and it is more likely,it is published to push Assam-Bhutan-Tawang Road completion.Bhutan is yet to complete some stretch of the road which is going to reduce this distance by nearly 6 hours.Only a patch of 15 kilometres of Lumla-Tashigang road has not been completed by Bhutan.

This constant anti china campaign by indian media is definitely going to turn the general opinion of chinese public towards india which currently is neutral but will not be for long

when does the Chinese public count for anything ?

 

[Chinese-Dragon]

when does the Chinese public count for anything ?

Public opinion counts for a lot more in China than in Western democracies.

Because in a Western democracy, if they lose public support, there is no real penalty. They just get voted out, and can try again in 4 years. And if they fail again, they can try in another 4 years. (See India's AAP who failed terribly in Delhi, wrecking the budget/utilities, leaving office after a couple of days, yet they are back in power again.)

But in China, if you lose the public support, you can't just "try again in 4 years". You get one shot, and if you fail, that's the end of the road for you.

Why do you think they are always pandering to nationalist sentiment.

How is that possible considering that Army has a base in Tawang.

 

[Tractor]

Tawang itself not so good,just some places nearby it to the northeast and northwest which ones being called 'hidden paradise' respectively should not be neglected by Chinese.There is still no borderline formal and each side had opportunities to do something.

My dear friend, China has claimed Tawang to be a part of China before. So I think, it is justified when Indian media focuses on the same issue.
Or did you expect us to brush things under the carpet ?

How is that possible considering that Army has a base in Tawang.

It's re-enforcements they are talking about probably. The road connectivity still leaves a lot to be desired.

 

[The_Sidewinder]

I am not surprised at all. Hilly tarrain in Arunachal makes road transport pathatic to say the least.

Is this a new Call of Duty video game I don't know about?

TOURIST INFRASTRUCTURE BEING BUILT BY CHINA NEAR INDIAN BORDER

China is developing a mega tourist infrastructure north of the McMahon Line. Beijing plans to bring 3 lakhs of tourists every year to visit the gorges of the Brahmaputra.
Please note that the Chinese authorities do not bother their tourists with an Inner Line Permit System like on the other side of the border.

This development also means that the train will probably reach Nyingtri (Chinese Nyingchi) in 3 or 4 years time.
Let us not forget that this infrastructure can also be used for military purpose in case of conflict with India.
'The World Scenic Spot' project raises another question: can this infrastructure be useful in case Beijing decides to build a mega hydropower plant in the Great Bend of the Brahmaputra. The answer is: certainly. In fact, tourism is a good excuse to develop the necessary infrastructure.
THE THREE GORGES DAM IN TIBET IS ALREADY CRACKING

Bad news for the populations of Arunachal Pradesh and Assam, the Three Gorges Dam is already cracking.
One can imagine the anguish of the downstream populations in India if the Chinese go ahead with their project to build a mega hydro-power plant on the Brahmaputra.
The problem is that Beijing seems obsoletely unable to control the quality of the work done by the contractors.
Let us pray that it will not happen.
June 19, 2010
A senior Chinese official says cracks have appeared in the controversial Three Gorges hydroelectric dam being built on the Yangtze river.
Qian Zhengying, the former minister of water resources who heads an expert group on the dam, returned from a week-long inspection of the project demanding that the cracks be "repaired fastidiously", according to the state-controlled China Daily.
There have been consistent rumours that the 185-metre-high (605 feet) dam, which entails the removal of entire villages to higher ground, is being shoddily constructed, amid reports of endemic corruption in the project.
But the China Daily report represents an usually frank admission that the dam has serious shortcomings and some leaders are now critical of the project.
"During the past three years, concrete placement in the project has not been first class, causing a variety of related accidents and drawbacks, though the concrete process has improved compared with previous years," Ms Qian was quoted as saying.
The cracks measure a maximum 1.25 millimetres across and 2.5 metres deep, according to China Daily.
The paper said cracks had also been found in the project's permanent ship-locks and ship-lifts.
NEW AIRPORT IN TIBET WITH ADDITION TO AN ALREADY BUILT AIRPORT
THIS AIRPORT IS DANGEROUSLY CLOSE TO INDIAN BORDER
Tibet's Ngari Gunsa Airport OPENED IN JULY 2010

One more airport in Tibet. This time dangerously close to the Indian border in Ladakh and Himachal Pradesh.
Beijing will use the pretext of the religious sites of Tholing, Tsaparang or Mount Kailash to bring ten of thousands of tourists.
But the same airport can also be used for military purpose.
CHINA PAKISTAN RAIL LINK

After Tibet, it is now Pakistan. Tomorrow it will be Burma and Nepal. Foreign Minister SM Krishna says: "we are closely watching what is happening".
Is it enough?
Last week the following news item appeared in the press: "Arunachal Lok Sabha MP Takam Sanjoy has appealed to the Centre to reconsider the proposal for construction of a Greenfield Airport at Tawang taking into consideration its strategic location and country’s security. His plea follows the ‘news’ that the Union Ministry concerned had put on hold the proposal.In a letter to Praful Patel, the Union Minister of Civil Aviation, Sanjoy said, “After making extensive aerial and ground surveys for the construction of Greenfield Airport at Tawang, feasibility reports were submitted to your Ministry for early sanction, which is still awaited”. Resenting the inordinate delay on sanctioning of the project, the MP from West Parliamentary Constituency under which Tawang falls, urged Patel to pursue the matter at the earliest."
On one side of the border Sino-Indian border, Beijing builds airport, roads and railway lines, on the other side clearance for a small airport is 'awaited'!
GOLD MINING IN TIBET
China National Gold's Tibet mining project begins production

According to some news agency reports, the International Energy Agency (IEA) has announced that China had surpassed the United States to become the world's top energy consumer. Though Beijing called it an 'unreliable' data, The Financial Times and the Wall Street Journal cited a top IEA official as saying the Asian giant had taken over the top spot in 2009, earlier than expected.
According to the IEA, China consumed 2.252 billion tons of oil equivalent of energy in 2009, from sources that included coal, nuclear power, natural gas and hydroelectric power -- about four percent more than the United States.
The Chinese ogre is bound to use more and more the resources 'at home' (read in Tibet). It is bad news for the Tibetans.Today, Xinhuapublished the following article.
