As an observation: it should be noted that the majority of the world's shipping use the Straits....hence any action there will involve more than India and China...

Hi, don't forget
Yarlung Zangbo River. If China build a dam on the river, that's the most horrible for India. Imagine it, when spring China store water in the dam, when summer China let the water out.
In addition, China can benefit from the huge water power from the dam.

Hi, dont forget the 3 Gorges either. In war, we will bomb it, in peace it will crack up and inundate a few million people. Smart masters you have, no?
To: MimirsWell
It's only five days to empty the three gorges dam, if the war is near we can empty it quickly.
And we are doing works in our territory, not in India.
If India try to cutting off the oil supplies, I guess China will build the dam in an incredible time. And then, Indian's best choice is moving their house at once.

That's why China bought the Panama Canal. Except that majority of trans-Ocean oil tankers (and many other bulk carriers) today are Post-Panamax, i.e. too big and too wide to fit through the Panama Canal.

India can live with flodding.But i doubt your country can go without oil for long!!
To: tgbhu
Everything China builds in an “incredible time” is bound to collapse, including its economy, but that’s another argument.
If China builds a dam across the TsangPo, India can build a dam across the Brahmaputra to manage the flooding that will cause by the un/intentional collapse of the dam on your side.
Looks like you’re on your way outta here...Zot-time coming up for you chicom.

You know little about China, as I know, some oil fields and mines already be found, but offical never release the information. And some of them are “stand by”.

Lol! Do you think India and China are same?
China have built a lot of huge projects with low-key, and India only have a lot of "ambitious" plans.
Looks like youre on your way outta here...Zot-time coming up for you chicom.

You mean India have right to cutting off China's supplies, but China have no right to revenge?
Your thinking is funny.

Obviously have never seen the Tsangpo. Nor have you seen the Brahmaputra, and I am not sure your state media even reports about the tremors that are frequent in the 3 gorges area due to the instability that the dam has caused on the cliffs surrounding the area. As for pictures of floods, I can show you multiple ones where the Chinese are seen suffering, or better still try using google images.
You’re thinking is funny. India will not cut off China’s supply lines for no reason. Read the article (oh wait, your English is funny to start with), it says that in case of war, India will do so. So cutting off your supply lines in itself will be a “revenge” act.
