<b>Naresh Ji</b>,
chIna-s are being ruled by those with excellent common-sense of polity, whereas bhArata-s by either those morons totally bereft of any sense, or more likely those who are thieves, thugs, and foreign-spies.
For what chIna-s are doing, consider what kauTilya says in the sixth book of arthashAstra: "<b>a wise king shall observe that policy which, in kauTilya's opinion, enables him to build forts, to construct buildings and commercial roads, to open new plantations and villages, to exploit mines and timber and elephant forests, and at the same time to harass similar works of his enemy. However, If he thinks himself to be growing in power more rapidly both in quality and quantity than his enemy, he should neglect his enemy's progress for the time being (to further grow the gap in strength without attracting a conflict)</b>."
on a different minor matter:
<!--QuoteBegin-->QUOTE<!--QuoteEBegin--> Chinese Navy would not be able to âBlow Upâ the Oil Tankers for the simple reason that it would cause a Humongous Maine Pollution wherein the Oil Slicks would most probably land on Iranian and Pakistani Shores.<!--QuoteEnd--><!--QuoteEEnd-->
I wouldn't put it past chIna-s. Persian gulf and adjoining arabian sea is anyways the worst abused sea from intentional oil spillage since the days of Iran-Iraq war upto gulf-war and beyond. And its marine ecology - whatever is left of it - wouldn't bother chIna-s a bit.
