The general Chinese exuberance against India in this thread is quite amusing. Colombo port city project, a purely non-military one which in no way threatened India's regional security interests, was cancelled by the present government for corruption charges and environmental concerns and has been given a go ahead by the present government for they might have found no objection in it. The Indian establishment was in no way influential in halting the deal, neither they had anything to do with the consequent Sri Lankan decision. Sri Lankans will do whatever suits there national interest; Indians do not live in the 80's anymore.
