Chinese troops posted at forward posts in Ladakh on Thursday played Punjabi songs on loudspeakers in what seems like a measure to distract Indian troops, who are sitting at a height overlooking their positions at Finger 4.

It may be noted that this psychological warfare tactic has been used by Chinese army in the past as well.

Just before the 1962 war, the Chinese army played Bollywood/Hindi songs as an intimidation tactic and also to demonstrate that they knew the Indian language.
By playing loud music, the Chinese are not only trying to distract Indian troops, but are also trying to show that they understanding all their moves.

A majority of all Indian Army soldiers converse in Hindi and Punjabi. It is possible that Chinese soldiers may have overheard Indian troops humming songs in Hindi or Punjabi in the past and are trying to show Indian troops that they are not under worried about recent developments.

It is also a way trivialising the current border situation and suggesting that they are not hassled with the current developments at the heights of eastern Ladakh.
India and China are engaged in an intense face-off near Finger 4 where gun shots were exchanged in the air on September 8.

Indian and Chinese troops have been engaged in a standoff since April-May this year after attempts of transgressions by the Chinese army in Kongrung Nala, Gogra and Finger area near Pangong Lake.

The Indian Army has now increased its level of preparedness in the Ladakh sector and is ready to deal with any aggression by the Chinese army.
 
PLA female regiment can beat Taiwan hands down, that's the conclusion they made.
 
No doubt about it PLA is well trained and well equipped and the largest standing army's in the world so Taiwanes are right about it our ENDIAN friends are some how suspicious about that and want one in the place where sun never shine. :sniper::-):guns::guns:
China is not stupid enough to fight both India and Taiwan both at the same time ... what this means is that the full brunt of the Chinese Army (~700,000 to 800,000) soldiers can be brought against India because as long as there is not a need to invade Taiwan, then basically the entire Chinese Army can be redirected towards India due to a lack of overland threats. All this could be accomplished with current troop levels. So basically the Indian Army will have to face the full force of both the Chinese and Pakistani Armies, which definitely will not end well.

The footage is real, they didn't spin a story for this video, but they spin stories on other ones, like Taiwan downed PLA Su-35, (already denied by Taiwan officials) and their media even claim mainlander Chinese can't afford instant noodles, Do Indian minds still believe those reports?
 
OK, as long as Taiwan freely consents then unification will be supported by the rest of the world, including USA.

What is not acceptable is forcing Taiwan to reunify with China.
 
As long as Taiwan is still Republic of China, PRC can't find an excuse to attack without being labelled of starting a civil war.
