yes,there are ethnic prejudice in China,but not the kind you know in other nation.

go to China,and ask a pair of husband and wife,if one of them is han,one of them is minority.ask them whether they would let their children sign up hukou as han or minority.

dude this is exactly what im trying to say . both india and china had this so called caste system but now it has almost became extinct .

Chinese gov's policy of discriminating Han ethnic on college access is quite problematic. The policy does not doing good to either ethnic minorities or Han Chinese. The gov should put more resource on the education system itself rather than discriminating one party of people.

Similarly, I've heard the Indian gov preserve some positions for people from low caste family, and it's also controversal. Again I believe the Indian gov should put more resource on education and allow more people from all background to have chance to access it.

not exactly,there are no caste system in China in history.the problem is between landlords and peasants and serfs.if a peasant became rich,there would be no problem for him to became landlord as well as other landlords.money talk.no bias for his born.

New Delhi: Worried that Tibetans may hold violent protests to observe the 50th year of the Dalai Lama's exile, China on Wednesday thanked India for providing security to their missions but reminded New Delhi of its pledge not to allow Tibetans to indulge in political activities.

"Tibetans in India have not stopped protests and candle-light demonstrations. The Dalai Lama and his followers have staged many protests in different parts of India, including Delhi, specially since the Tibetan New Year on February 5," China's Ambassador to India Zhang Yan told reporters.

"The scale is, however, much smaller than we expected. This year they have failed to reach the embassy and stage protests," the envoy said.

He said Tibetans were planning to stage violent activities in India, including an attack on the Chinese embassy.

"We are prepared for it, with the help and assistance of the Indian Government and law enforcement agencies," he said.

"The Indian Government is committed to not allowing the Dalai Lama and his followers to undertake any political activities against China. We expect the Indian Government to fulfil its commitment," the envoy underlined.

"We are satisfied at the support we have received from the Indian Government," he said when asked whether India had shown enough sensitivity over the Tibetan issue.

He also lauded India for taking "decisive measures" to ensure the safety of the Indian leg of the Chinese Olympic torch procession in New Delhi last year.

"It was appreciated not only by the Chinese government but people all over the world. It showed to the world India is capable of handling the security situation," he said. "It was a warming up for the security drill for the Commonwealth Games India will host next year," he said.

Around 1 lakh Tibetan exiles live in India. India granted refuge to the Dalai Lama after China brutally cracked down on the Tibetan uprising in 1959.

Tibetan exiles are planning to hold a five-day 'thank you' India festival starting Thursday for generosity and hospitality extended to Tibetan refugees and Dalai Lama during the last 50 years of their stay here. The festival will be inaugurated by Tibetan government-in-exile's Prime Minister Samdhong Rinpoche. The Dalai Lama is expected to attend the closing day of the festival March 31.

India pledged to disallow Tibet protests: China

Indian Army fears China attack by 2017

The Indian military fears a ‘Chinese aggression’ in less than a decade. A secret exercise, called ‘Divine Matrix’, by the army’s military operations directorate has visualised a war scenario with the nuclear-armed neighbour before 2017.

“A misadventure by China is very much within the realm of possibility with Beijing trying to position itself as the only power in the region. There will be no nuclear warfare but a short, swift war that could have menacing consequences for India,” said an army officer, who was part of the three-day war games that ended on Wednesday.

In the military’s assessment, based on a six-month study of various scenarios before the war games, China would rely on information warfare (IW) to bring India down on its knees before launching an offensive.

The war games saw generals raising concerns about the IW battalions of the People’s Liberation Army carrying out hacker attacks for military espionage, intelligence collection, paralysing communication systems, compromising airport security, inflicting damage on the banking system and disabling power grids. “We need to spend more on developing information warfare capability,” he said.

The war games dispelled the notion that China would take at least one season (one year) for a substantial military build-up across India’s northeastern frontiers. “The Tibetan infrastructure has been improved considerably. The PLA can now launch an assault very quickly, without any warning, the officer said.

The military believes that China would have swamped Tibet with sweeping demographic changes in the medium term. For the purposes of Divine Matrix, China would call Dalai Lama for rapprochement and neutralise him. The top brass also brainstormed over India’s options in case Pakistan joined the war to. Another apprehension was that Myanmar and Bangladesh would align with China in the future geostrategic environment.

Hi, we're the Indian army and we need more money so we'll play up the threat of "misadventure" by China.

New IAF airfield to be reopened in east Ladakh

NEW DELHI: After successfully reopening Daulat Beg Oldi and Fuk Che airfields in Ladakh last year, India is now working aggressively to
operationalise the Neoma Advanced Landing Ground (ALG) this year for the Indian Air Force (IAF), close to the Line of Actual Control (LAC) with China.

Though these airfields are being revived to support troop movement in times of need, India would prefer these to be ready for future tourism requirements.

In due course, the airfield at Neoma will also be converted into a full fledged runway to cater to future tourist inflow.

"This new ALG is coming up at Neoma in east Ladakh, which will, in all probability, be converted into a full fledged runway, like any other runway to cater for the future tourism requirements also in the region," IAF's Western Air Command Air Officer Commanding-in-Chief Air Marshal P K Barbora told reporters here on Monday.

Neoma is not as close to the LAC as Daulat Beg Oldi or Fuk Che are, but it will be close enough to support military operations too. The airfields were operated by the Indian armed forces during the 1962 Sino-Indian war, but closed a few years later.

"Not as close (to China) as DBO, Chushul or Fuk Che. But it is in a pretty comfortable place," Barbora said.

Work on Neoma airfield has already started and the IAF is preparing the ALG to operate fixed-wing aircraft.

Regarding the IAF's original plans to reopen the Chushul airfield in the Ladakh region, Barbora said the idea has been shelved for the moment, but it could be revived as and when the government wanted the ALG operationalised.

Giving reasons for the government decision, the Air Marshal said the IAF felt it was not required now because of the road connectivity that has come up there, and because of the amount of money and work that would go into preparing the airfield for operation.

"Whenever there is a requirement, we can and will prepare the Chushul airfield. Also, the amount of work that has to be fitted in to get it ready is not worth it. We already have done landing and take off at Daulat Beg Oldi and Fuk Che," he added.

When Neoma gets ready, it would be IAF's third ALG in Ladakh to be reopened nearer to the Chinese and Pakistani borders in the last one year in Jammu and Kashmir, with Daulat Beg Oldi and Fuk Che becoming operational in May and November respectively.

The IAF has been reopening airfields to strengthen its air maintenance operations and promotion of tourism in the region, which is the gateway to the highest battlefield, Siachen Glacier.

China and India mainly focusing on their
Economic Development & Energy Security.
So China and India can corporate with each
Other on the issue peacefully.

For example – China and India can sign a
Navel Corporation Agreement.China can share South China Sea
With India.
India can share Indian Ocean
With China.
If China and India ready to corporate
With each other peacefully then both
Countries benefit.

If india had to do so then why China invested 198 million $ in Gawader Sea Port at Pakistan?
India is trying to fly like a viewer who comes out of cinema after watching Super Man movie
