China’s border with Kashmir is not border with India

Friday, 24 December 2010 19:12



Just a couple of days after Chinese Premier Wen Jiabao‘s visit to India, China has created another controversy by adding a new twist to border disputes with India. A Xinhua, mouthpiece of the Chinese government, report has desribed the Sino-Indian border as 2,000 km long, ignoring nearly 1,600 km from its definition of China’s border with India. The border as per Indian account is 3,500 km.

China apparently no longer treats the line of nearly 1,600 km separating Jammu and Kashmir on one hand and Xinjiang and Tibet on the other as a border with India.

Xinuha’s reference to the border issue was based on an official briefing by Chinese Assistant Foreign Minister Hu Zhengyue, ahead of Wen’s visit.

During his visit, Wen said China and India have agreed to set up a working mechanism for consultation and coordination on border affairs.

Terming the boundary issue between the two countries as an “historical legacy”, Wen had said that it would not be easy to completely resolve the matter.

There are many Muslims in Russia.

In fact there are 4 provinces completely dominated by Muslims.

After 75 years of Communism in Russia, the Russians with Christian heritage don't Russia as a Christian country, like Muslim see Pakistan or Egypt as a Muslim nation.

Chinese courts have sentenced 20 people to up to life in jail on charges of separatism and plotting to carry out jihad in the restive far western region of Xinjiang, the government said on Wednesday.
The courts in Kashgar and Bayingol said the 20 - all ethnic Uighurs judging by their names - had had their "thoughts poisoned by religious extremism", and used cell phones and DVDs "to spread Muslim religious propaganda", the Xinjiang government said on its official news website (www.ts.cn).
Some of them bought weapons to kill policemen as part of their jihad and spread propaganda related to the banned East Turkestan Islamic Movement, the report said, a group which China says wages a violent campaign for a separate state.
Many Uighurs, a Turkic-speaking Muslim people native to Xinjiang, chafe at Chinese controls on their religion, language and culture.
China has blamed violence in energy-rich Xinjiang - strategically located on the borders of Afghanistan, Pakistan, India and Central Asia - on Islamic separatists who want to establish an independent East Turkestan.
Some Chinese officials have also blamed attacks on Muslim militants trained in Pakistan. But many rights groups say China overstates the threat to justify its tight grip on the region.
Dilxat Raxit, spokesman for the exiled World Uyghur Congress, said the 20 were actually guilty of no more than listening to the US-funded Radio Free Asia and using the internet to discuss the importance of religious and cultural freedom.
"Giving heavy sentences to Uighurs (on the excuse) of terrorism is China's special way of carrying out suppression," he said in an emailed statement.

I think China shows the importance of Pakistan with its massive support of Pakistan. It matters not whom Le Keqiang visits.

I done the above post five months ago....

 

After travelling through some major cities in china all I get is hungry Chinese just after stealing western tech!

 

If you are an engineer and speak English fluently, avoid travelling to china at all costs.

 

I got out by dumping obsolete scraps for Shanghai and Shenzhen to fight over.

=======================================================

 

Your post intrigues me ..... could you please give more details on of your visit. I am interested in knowing what sort of behavior do the Chinese have, particularly when it comes to them knowing that we are Pakistanis. Of course, if you speak with a western accent, then that's just asking for trouble. 

 

Who wouldn't want to study, dissect and reverse engineer western tech. But there ought to be a decorum and refinement in the way it's done. 

 

It is said, one can even make a horse to deal cards, given the right attitude, words and approach.

Salam dizasta bro, I might have been too angry when I done the above post. Reading your post, of course as being a tech person myself I would do the same....why not deceminate info from a foriegner. Regardless of heritage I.e. Pakistani, british Muslim or expat Chinese, SPECIALLY white. The Chinese have their own way of knowing.

Sort of encripted message from here..

what made me go to China is due to PDF (sino pak pact) and what annoyed the Chinese about me is due to what I learned from PDF debating!

Lost?

The Chinese space agency engineers met me, they spent alot of money on our tech, however I have perfected the art of kill-switch.

And I understand that my personal experience in no way makes any diffetence on an international level (pak sino friendship), it is howeverver enough to make me write these posts in an international forum like this.
