    I hope someday asian will be solid partners in the future like european union but china is making it hard
  • vietnam, South Korea, Taiwan, Japan, Philippines, India and Australia is enough to form a Military Alliance or a Treaty Organization in Asia.
  • @jsecong
    It's crucial for India to assume a more substantial role in the Indo-Pacific theater and collaborate with like-minded nations. This strategic engagement will contribute to regional stability and foster stronger partnerships among nations sharing common values and interests in the Indo-Pacific region.
  • @Allmoney8
    Nice to see the Philippines and Vietnam Coast Guard work together
  • China is always claiming that everything in WPS is for them historically but UN denied this claim...but Vietnam and the Philippines have also their historical rights of claiming other parts of WPS through their EEZ and based on UNCLOS..

    India must go in strong with this one. As an American Army veteran, I believe the world could be a brighter place if we see India rise as a friendly super power. This is the time to rise up but you must act NOW and be an early actor to maintain credibility and trustworthiness over time. I have no doubt that China and India will go to war, 10 years, 20 years, 30 years from now if we stay on the current trajectory. India has a chance to be part of a coalition between America and other countries in the region. Initiate it if you have to. Nobody wants WW3. I believe war can be avoided if India (specifically India) teamed up with America, Vietnam, Phillippines, Japan, Australia and other Pacific nations in a formal military alliance. This would send a shiver down Russia's spine because now they will truly feel isolated. Think about what the world would become over the next 20 years if our future unfolded this way? I have met many Indian people living in America and they are all good. I believe India holds the key to two futures, one where we continue the endless cycle of war, another where we break the cycle and trigger a massive boost;, space travel, cures for cancer, etc. And if we are lucky, maybe we fold a peaceful and democratic China and Russia back into the picture. If all of this where to happen, Mars will simply become a jump point to more strategic parts of our solar system and beyond. Godspeed!
  • @ponyrizz
    Cool. I support the relationship between PH and Vietnam!❤
  • Bharat claims that China was first discovered by Indian travellers, so India is claiming whole of China as Indian territory 😂😂😂😂🎉🎉🎉🎉 this is as per Chinese logic
  • @BossKibz
    Thank you INDIA for stepping up!!!
  • @Suriyavanna
    India has historic precedent in having diplomatic relations with South- East Asia and the South China Sea. In that regard, it is very well India invests more in cooperation in this region as Pakistan, Afghanistan, Iran and China are untrustworthy nations. Indian states already had peaceful trade relationships with Buddhist and Hindu kingdoms in the region so it is not weird or uncommon to invest in these old relationships again. Jai Hind, Namo Buddhaya.
