#1 ION DEFENCE.PK/FORUMS > CHINA: NO [PLAN] NAVAL BASE IN PAKISTAN OR SRI LANKA | NO NAVAL BUILDUP, SAYS CHINA'S DM. Gen. Liang Guanglie.

ARTIC > DM LIANG GUANGLIE = "CHINA is now pursuing Socialism", + does not yet have a large arsenal of THIRD-GENERATION WEAPONS like the US, CPLA'S MIL MODERNIZATION TO PAR WID CHINA'S ECON GROWTH/POWER.

* NEWS KERALA > NORTH KOREA TO SET UP [Yalu River region]ECONOMIC ZONE ON CHINA BORDER. Hwanggumphyeong + Wihwa islands.

versus

* CHINESE MIL FORUM > CHINA'S SUBMARINES ARE BIG[GEST] FAILURE EVER!?

ARTIC = China trusts its PLA armed forces, wid or widout the latest modern wares, even less than the Cold War USSR did wid their own, hence is highly reluctant to deploy them far beyond China's territorial limits.

IIUC, CHINA + PLA QUANDRY > PLA IS CRITICIZED AS LACKING EXPERTISE OR PROFICIENCY IN 21ST CENTURY MODERN COMBAT + TECHS - TO BECOME A TRUE GLOBAL SUPEROWER, THE PLA MUST BE ABLE TO RELIABLY + ROUTINELY DEFEND CHIN'S INTERESTS OVERSEAS VEE FORCE/POWER PROJECTION, BUT DUE TO LATENT MISTRUST OF THE PLA BEIJING IS ONLY WILLING TO DEV LR MILSTRIKE TECHS IN SUPPOR OF CHIN'S GEOPOL INTERESTS AS LONG AS IT CAN KEEP PLA FORCES HOME OR VERY CLOSE TO HOME.

IOW, Beijing wants the PLA to know how to fly before it first learns even how to walk or run - BEIJING'S BIGGEST BARRIER TO CHINA BECOM A US-STYLE = POST-US GLOBAL SUPERPOWER IS BEIJING + CHINA ITSELF.

Asking a Water Buffalo to push a larger-sized, long Train.
