China on Thursday (September 15) asked India and other countries to refrain from oil exploration in maritime areas offered by Vietnam in the South China Sea, claiming that it enjoys "indisputable sovereignty" there. Well Chinese enjoy many other things and should be enjoying not annoying others including the younger brother and Uncle Sam.China can openly confront to the international-arm of India's state-owned Oil and Natural Gas Corporation (ONGC) over hydrocarbon exploration rights in the South China Sea and everyone has right to do so but legally by International UN convention it has no claims on it . India should bear in mind that its actions in the South China Sea will push China to the limit. China cherishes the Sino-Indian friendship, but this does not mean China values it above all else . Long history of China never gave an impression to Indian's of friendship .Chinese have always worked in a way that pisses India and try to show case to the world of it's reengineered dominance .It has given lessons and mocked at the inovators to let the things happen and then we will copy cat .It tries to play the role of big Daddy in the region creating an impression among the smaller state that I need all the resources I am the next super power to Vietnam ,Phillipines and many others . China and Vietnam have competing territorial claims to the sea but India is working well within the limits and following the International norms .Adding India to the mix — the only country in Asia that presents something of a challenge to Chinese primacy — can only exacerbate tensions. India has stepped up its defense ties with Vietnam, winning access to naval ports while helping Hanoi ready a new fleet of submarines. Beijing has been somewhat spooked by such collaboration, not least because of Vietnam's proximity to Hainan, the island province where China's own rapidly modernizing nuclear submarine fleet is housed. According to some Indian strategists, China has set up naval facilities and listening posts from Burma to Pakistan, with a strategic, deep-sea port at Hambantota, Sri Lanka, in between. It may be true or false but the one thing that Indian government good deed is It has made it's stand clear not to back pack it's plan's .Their is usual support from White House and criticism also raised that India is fighiting American's battle .People can say anythig but I belive it is a right move .India nor China should compromise their own interests to placate the oft-illusory fears of the other.
India is right to forcefully reject Chinese claims of sovereignty over the entire South China Sea. It should now build credible strategic partnerships with other regional states to prevent a Chinese regional dominance that will undermine Indian and regional security interests.
China should not change from big bully to bad bully,this cannot be accepted by the world on the whole.
