NSCN, ULFA and other NE terror bands received a lot of weapons and help from the Yunnan side. .... from decades ago.
china is infact notorious for selling weapons to various bandits worldwide from chile to the bering sea their "red princes" weapons factories spread the net wide.
and then ofcourse the sponsorship, nuclearizing and cover for Pakistan once its relations with the US started to sour.
not indicative of a benign attitude.
poor or rich does not enter into any equation..its the degree of current and future threat you perceive.
USSR was relatively quite poor per capita vs EU/USA. north korea is vs Soko/US/Japan. the poor / rich thing might come from sinic perception of worshipping money and despising the poor as unworthy and feeble when you abandon all your old gods, the only god left to worship is money....thats what chairman deng reiterated too.
after the USSR threat receded , I imagine India took over as #2 on their threat perception. and unlike other nations in east asia, India is not a huge investor in china or badly dependent on china for any resource. our vast population and market size instead has the cheen cos supplicating and sequealing to be allowed to invest and vendor finance billions in what I see as some very risky plays, but what to do the cheen govt domestic policy of locking out the US means the US locks it out of wherever, so India is the only large market relatively unlikely to bow to US pressure on non-bilateral trade matters.
eg the anil ambani telecom GSM venture was i believe entirely vendor financed by ZTE or huawei and it struggled for years before shutting down recently. will the original vendors have recovered their take from AMC? maybe but probably not worth the money and time they spent on it.
its like the Congress claiming that Modi is a threat in 2014, while in reality they were targetting him on all fronts from 2000.
