I for one am not a fan of Indira and neither do I take any offence to their views on Indira. It is not the same when they very openly talk about balkanizing the country.

sundin Posted October 1, 2023 Share Posted October 1, 2023 (edited) If its just talking about Balkanization, why should western countries care? India seceded from the British benefiting from talks about balkanization in California and BC (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ghadar_Movement) Similarly, we talk about CCP and its respective issues with HK and Taiwan from a Western perspective and a One China policy. As far as India, I believe there has been a regime change in the last decade for the worse. India is a federate of states that can't have division along the lines of caste/language/region/religion to remain strong and unified. It's like a continent of different cultures, as if Africa were to be one country - practically needs unity to survive. The Modi govt doesn;t have best record here.

It will bolster Sri Lanka’s economic growth and “its regional economic integration, including with India, a key partner to both countries,” DFC said in a statement. The funding is part of a global acceleration of DFC investments that totaled $9.3 billion in 2023. “It is a high priority for the US to be active in the Indo-Pacific region,” Scott Nathan, the DFC’s chief executive officer told reporters in Colombo Wednesday. “It is obviously the engine of economic growth for the world.” ...

What made you move to your "new base in Kuala Lumpur"? i am on a self directed tour in south east Asia. Seeing five cities in three countries. Kuala Lumpur was two cities ago. So already left. Now in north of Thailand in Chiangmai. Will probably do Vietnam and the rest of Thailand in 2024 on a different tour. Hope to be able to do this in India soon. Assuming I can figure out which part to tackle first. The sheer size of India is staggering. But like compounding I guess you never start until you start.

He was to take out the lawyer for the Vancouver sikh who was killed a few months ago. They also had a couple of other targets they were assigned to take out. This is very, very ugly for Modi and India. Reeks of the shit that Saudi Arabia was doing with Jamal Khashoggi. Will it get whitewashed like that incident, or will Modi's head be delivered on a platter in the next election? Cheers! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
