After the standstill agreement between Djinnah and Maharaja Hari singh, followed by the Treaty of accession to the union of India between GOI and Maharaja Hari Singh, the pakistanis have no locus standi on J&K.

The UN resolutions clearly tell them to remove their army from POK, hand it over to India.

India's already held a plebisite when the first elected state assembly lead by shiekh abdulla ratified the treaty of accession.
End of story, Pakistan needs to be evicted from POK, it is in violation of a UN resolution.

The Chinese seem to have been really nasty with the Pakistanis on the interest rate. They gave the initial loan on a reduced rate and hooked Pakistan on to the project and once it reached a crucial stage, they are now upping the interest rate steeply. Now, nobody else is going to invest in this project. It was not a financially viable project because of Kishenganga upstream and Pakistan had to start the project because they mis-interpreted the IWT and thought they could spite arch-enemy India across the face. The trouble is that Pakistan cannot dismount the lion and so it will concede more strategic space to China. This is the usual Chinese tactic which we have seen across several poor countries. Just wait for the CPEC to kick off. Pakistan will be completely gobbled up by the Iron-friend China with a sovereign-guarantee of 18% RoI.

Inder Sharma wrote:Associate any entity with RAW and it provides Pakistani establishment the legitimacy and the approval to crackdown brutally on dissenting elements.
Be it Baccha Khan(Pashtuns), Mujib(Bengalis), G M Syed (Sindhis), Bughti (Baloch), TTP(Pashtuns); or now Altaf(Muhajirs). Pakjabis have preemptively raised RAW bogey to impose silence or prepare military ground for imposing silence, dissent or brutal force.
The above article with respect to CPEC has only one political objective. It is to prepare a ground for declaring any Pakistani dissent against CPEC as treason in alliance with RAW.
Let’s be clear. The project of this scale will require land, water and labor appropriation on large scale. It will have massive subcontracts to supply material, labor, housing, food and even entertainment.
More often than not, it will be poor farmers, marginalized, ethnic and linguistic minorities who would be cheated out of their property, land, labour and daughters to make CPEC.
On the other hand, it would be Pakjabis/Army who would make moolah out of the contracts and the subsequent accruals. This loot and wealth transfer will definitely cause dissent, protest and violence.
The Pakjab Fauj is only deterring that voice of dissent by establishing the following narrative:
• China Pakjab Economic Corridor is Pro-Pakistan (although the financials are unfeasible and would make Pakistan for ever debt ridden)
• That anybody protesting against Pro-Pakistan is anti-Pakistan
• RAW is anti-Pakistan
• Those against CPEC are RAW
Only a very strong Islamism would be able to derive a higher legitimacy.

Absolutely true Inder Sharma ji, as long as TSPA is backing the allegation the Pakis will buy the story. They started with the Quaid's sister but then there was no RAW.

Every time I hear of CPEC I don't know why I start humming "... and she's buyin' a stairway to heaven"

johneeG · Post by **johneeG** » 09 Jul 2015 20:34

I was trying to understand what this whole pak-china corridor is about. The whole idea seems to be:

- iran-pakistan pipeline.
- developing Gwadar port.
- Pakistan china economic corridor.

This is the Oil logistics:

This is the proposed Iran-Pakistan pipeline with possible extension to Bhaarath:

This is the proposed Pakistan-China corridor:

Iran is the source of Oil. China is the major market for Oil. The next major market is Bhaarath. Pakistan does not have the money to pay for Iran's oil. So, either that Iranian oil has to be paid by Bhaarath or China.

Pakistan hopes to collect rent and be merry and if possible do some blackmailing if and when the time comes.

Bhaarath seems to be not going ahead with Iran-Pakistan-India pipeline because it simply does not trust Pakistan.

China which is playing the whole game needs to be understood. China wants to enter the Indian ocean for the following reasons:
- China has been curtailed in the south- china sea using Taiwan, Japan and South-Korea by US.
- China wants to be able to enter the Indian ocean to be able to get logistics for its imports(fuel) and exports avoiding the straits of Malacca.
- China would like to contain Bhaarath using its neighbours. String of Pearls.

String of pearls serves dual purposes for China:
- contains Bhaarath.
- eases the logistics of China.

From China's perspective, there are two ways of entering Indian ocean:
- Myanmar - Bangladhesh.
- Pakistan.

Pakistan route is a more risky venture as it passes through high altitudes and high risk environment. So, perhaps, China tried to build its logistics via Myanmar and Bangladhesh first as part of Plan A. Pakistan route was perhaps the plan B.

Now, about Pakistan - China economic corridor:
The only way Pakistan can earn money in this scheme is if China pays them large rents for long time period for using the infrastructures which are supposedly going to be built by chinese labourers, chinese engineers and chinese money for chinese purpose.

Iran won't mind pakistan taking rent. Because the cost would get passed on to the consumer. The consumer is either China or Bhaarath. In this case, it is China. So, either this corridor can be economical for China or profitable for Pakistan. But not both simultaneously. If its really profitable for Pakistan, then China would be taking losses. If China is making profits, then pakistan won't get much out of it.

From Bhaarath's perspective, this is a threat because:
- its part of Bhaarath containment policy by China.
- China gets into Indian ocean threatening the position of Bhaarath.

Bhaarath seems to have initiated a few counter-measures to this:
- raising the issue diplomatically because the logistics seems to be going through Pakistan occupied Kashmir.(short-term counter-measure)
- developing the Chahabar port in Iran. (medium-term counter-measure)
- Balochistan freedom. And if we are to believe the pakistanis, they say that even Sindh is going the route of Balochistan. (Long-term counter-measure)

If Balochistan and Sindh secede from Pakistan, then Pakistan will not have access to Indian Ocean. But, its a long shot. In the meanwhile, Bhaarath seems to be developing Chahabhar port to counter the chinese development of Gwadar.

Your Post 09 Jul 2015 20:34 - Let us see how Gwadar develops for China's Oil Imports.

Xinjiang is exporting Millions of Barrels of Oil and Billions of Cubic Feet of Natural Gas to Eastern China. In my opinion Oil from Iran to China will most probably be taken by a Pipeline similarly to the Oil and Gas from Kazakhstan and Turkmenistan.

China also has developed the Port of Kyaukpyu in Myanmar which obviates using Malacca Straits :

http://www.forbes.com/sites/ericrmeyer/ ... -shortcut/
With Oil And Gas Pipelines, China Takes A Shortcut Through Myanmar - Eric Meyer

On the 29th of January, China opened, with little fanfare, a new oil link through Myanmar. Despite its low profile, this project has clearly been a huge undertaking, both technologically and politically. This 2,400km long pipeline runs through some of the most rugged areas on the planet, marked by jagged hills and ridges and dense jungle. On top of that, two stretches of the pipeline traverse two of Southeast Asia’s political hotspots, the Rakhine and Shan States, which retain semi-autonomous armies that have only just recently been nominally pacified.

The new route however, has one invaluable advantage in eyes of Chinese leaders: it bypasses the Malacca straits, whose infamous waters are infested with pirates. A 300,000 ton super tanker recently discharged its oil at the new deepwater port located on Maday Island—the first time this had happened—marking the start of new pipeline’s operation. That oil will now flow to Kunming, the capital of the southeast Chinese province of Yunnan, which borders Myanmar. The pipeline shortens the distance the oil will have to travel by sea to reach China by 700 miles. It also cuts by 30% the time this liquid black gold will take to get to the Middle Kingdom.

That why US & Bhaarath have become active in Myanmar. Myanmar is under severe pressure from both the chinese faction and US faction.(Remember, Obama visited Myanmar). And Bhaarath controls Bangladhesh.The pakistani faction of Bangladhesh is getting hanged judicially. So, I think that the chinese might want to use the pakistan route as a plan B to secure their logistics to Indian oceans avoiding the straits of Malacca.

The logistics to China has two parts:
a) Imports: mostly raw material and fuel from middle-east and Africa.
b) Exports: mostly finished goods to US, Europe and Bhaarath.

Bakra Mandi Concept. A.K.A Speed Dating

Being Imported From Amreeka. Applicants Invited To Bell This Phoren Cat

The Pakistani society has seemingly made social progression in a number of areas; the one thing that is still stuck in a painful first gear is the way khandaani (family oriented) families tend to find matches for their unmarried children.

Preparing the ground for an Unislamic concept !

Single events or speed dating are now the rapidly accepted manner[*] of finding the right man or woman in the Muslim community in the US. The term speed dating may not be looked upon kindly by the khaandani families living anywhere. However, there is no element of actual dating in the event and although it is similar in function to a singles event, it is chaperoned.

[*] Has it been declared halal by the maulvis

Once the introductions are made, the guests start to mingle. If a certain man had caught the eye of a particular female-side, then they single him out and attempt to strike up a conversation with him. Yes, it sounds like a bakra mandi (cattle market) but then, isn’t it about time we turn the tables on the men, who have always had the upper hand in visiting every female’s home in the neighbourhood, with his entire family scrutinising her? Jokes aside, the singles events process isn’t as bad as it sounds.

Except for Imran Khan, who is an Oreo Cookie- brown on the outside and white on the insider - I dont see any Paki politician supporting this alien concept

The list goes on. Of course, there may be negative aspects in such events as well, as there are in any good plan. However, weighing the pros and cons, I personally feel that the pros outweigh the cons. The only basic requirements are respectable venue, [*]respectable sponsors, and pre-registration to make sure the attendees are genuine. For someone with the right intention, the rest of the details shouldn’t be too hard to handle.

In effect, the problem of matchmaking in Pakistan may be likened to a marauding cat in the society. The question is, who will be brave enough to take the first step to bell this cat?[/b]

[*] It is very essential that the venue be given the widest possible publicity to ensure the maximum attendance of the religiously based Islamic parties like the JI,TTP, JUI so they can come and participate in the Bakra Mandi

Very disappointing. I don't what ModiJi hopes to achieve from this other than being roundly ridiculed by opposition in India, especially when nothing has changed from TSP and its 3.5 with respect to India centric terror. I also read that TSP killed one of our jawans as they were shaking hands. And apparently, ModiJi conveyed their "strong concerns" on TSP terrorism

Possible. More probably indirect benefactor.

For years US used pak as a pawn while india and china kept distance from each other. Rise of china and sudden rise of India made the game more complicated for US. They dont want to lose leverage on pakistan but at the same time want India to side with them. For US using japan on the east and india + pak on west can effectively sandwich China. Pakistan provides escape route for China and US doesn't want pakistan to leave them and sit on china's lap. But cost of having both pakistan and India on their side has increased tremendously last one decade. India making more and more clear not to help paki military if the west want India with them. And without helping TSP army any leverage on pak is useless. Hence the pressure on India to concede if india doesnt want them to help TSP. The west want both but unfortunately for them they can have only one.

Bipolarisation of asia is inevitable with pakistan totally going with china. How effectively we can exploit this depends on how long Modi will stay in power. Because he has made these moves and I hope he knows what he is doing and have balls to play it out. Not sure about his successor though.

PS.: MMS tried to checkmate china by accepting US tactics. Whereas Modi is playing his own game and making US to shift their strategy. Modi's policy is more pak centric and rightly so.
