China-Sri Lanka Cooperation: News & Discussions

[gslv]

There no pointing fingers here.. It's a open discussion.. Try not to be overly defensive like most other Indian posters here when India comes in to spotlight..

well i am not at all defensive, i am sad to belong to a country where around 300 million are poor . so i am unlike others , as i have seen poverty firsthand as a doctor who served in rural populace. and about minorities still they are better than many nation in the Indian subcontinent barring may be your country .

What was stated were genuine fears and general thoughts of the people.. Tamil Nadu was not a country in the 70's and 80's either but that didnt prevent it from wrecking havoc in the island for over 30 years.. Yeas the Central Govt's policies have changed a lot since the days of Indira doctrine.. But fears and apprehension remain,, Especially since tht hate and attrition towards Sri Lanka remains in the political circles in Tamil Nadu and bought up from time to time for thier political survival

now tamil nadu cannot exert itself over the decisions in New Delhi just bcoz delhi wont listen . we cannot handover our foreign relation to chennai , so dont bother . well time heals everything and it will too heal.

When I said "you", I didn't mean India. It was a reference towards all cultures in general. And yes, India absorbed democracy but you failed to make your own unique version of it. Same goes for Sri Lanka. What goes on in one place doesn't work in the other in its original form.

well my point was may be the culture getting diminished not bcoz it is bad , may be the other one is aggressive .

The thing is even grudgingly and with envy rest of the region looks at India and and admire it's democracy.. Yes it may not be perfect but in the complex country beyond imagination Indians somehow kept that vital right of a human beings intact.. And not for a moment did i compare the status of minorities in India with rest of the region.. That would be futile

But that is the very reason why the spotlight is on India these days.. The world is not used to such vitriol coming out of India, I'm not saying in any way the govt is involved but certain groups have taken the initiative of the Modi admin's pragmatic approach to dealing with issues as a open warrant espouse hate

I would take these concerns as a compliment for the vibrancy of India's multi ethnic mutli religious nationhood than a insult if i were an Indian.. This coming from a person that have visited India many times and experienced it first hand

well such things were always in India, how do you suppose ppl like Assaudin owaisi getting elected year after year in Hyderabad constituency , many ppl believe in his rabble rousing speech that actual doers like modi or even Chandababu Naidu . his brother threatened to kill all hindus in 15 mins if allowed in 2012 . so like i said it always existed in India , its now just getting highlighted more. muslims dont belive in hindus and vice-versa , thats the reason pakistan was created .

It's strange because the ordinary Indians are quite positive with China and even the Indian administration too.

Human to human interaction, maybe. But your true heart is shown when you are drunk or behind the keyboard. I am what I am on PDF but a bit more tactful in reality, but my views remain the same. If I hear a colleague, friend talking to me and saying untruthful things about anything I will not nod and say yes, but will let them know they are wrong.

Chinese President Xi Jinping has told visiting Sri Lankan President Maithripala Sirisena that they consider Sri Lanka a strategic partner as he expressed his wish to further boost relations between the two nations. “China has always placed Sri Lanka in an important diplomatic position in region,” Xi said. President Sirisena met with the Chinese Leader on Thursday in Beijing and held talks amid efforts to recalibrate former President Mahinda Rajapaksa’s strong pro-China policies. -

We can guarantee Sri Lanka security from India blackmail if they allow the port investment to go through.

It's not the port.. it's the Colombo port city project..And yes it's already on.. It's been cleared of doubts regarding the environmental assessments being made.. It was never cancelled but suspended owing to those clearances and certain issues pertaining the former regime surpassing monetary regulations

Yes bro, the Colombo Port City is a planned offshore city, which is to be built on reclaimed land adjacent to the Galle Face Green. The city will use construction resources from the Colombo Harbour Expansion Project, currently under construction near the site of this proposed city. The Port city is to be constructed between the southern edge of the new Colombo South Port and the Fort Lighthouse. The total area of sea to be reclaimed is 576 acres.

China Communications Construction Company Limited (CCCC; Ranked 187th in 2014 Fortune 500) is the project proponent, while the reclamation will be carried out by China Harbor Engineering Corporation (CHEC), who has been engaged by the investor. The investor itself is expected put in another 2.5 billion US dollars into developing the land. The balance will be sold on 99-year leases to potential investors.

Port city was restarted before he went to China.. If you take time off your racist rabble rousing you would have noticed that
