China has Bhutan in it's pocket who is next?

I've said it for a while, I don't think China is too concerned with the US (right now)
It has it's eyes set on a much bigger, closer prize, INDIA...

China has been all over Bhutan, and now it has tip toed right over the border, ready to build build build.
What does Bhutan have to say about that?????

"It is Bhutan's policy not to talk about boundary issues in the public," Bhutan's foreign ministry said in response to questions from Reuters. The ministry declined to comment further.

Just on the other side, China has it's eyes on the prize, I fear that Nepal doesn't stand a chance. Roads already being built.

China is a big country but there are too many people. If you look at a map you can easily see too much of China is not sustainable for human life. It is too barren with not enough water. Just beyond the borders it is as if everything turns green and lush. If I were China I would be trying to go toward the water too.

What would a war look like with 1.38 billion Indians Vs 1.40 Chinese?
Weird to think about.

The water China has is massively polluted; they aren't known to be good stewards of natural resources. It will be interesting to watch this play out. Now that America is no longer a threat to anybody but its own people, the rest of the world players are starting to make their moves.

You are right and even politicians in America are too afraid to get tough with Chinese busineses in America.

That's a shame. I wonder how their Gross National Happiness is now.

But really, such a small place has no chance against the tyranny of China, which is interested in nothing but itself. For they are The Borg and we all know it.

These places are like the little dots, and China is Pac Man..

What is sad is that a lot of these places have very ruch culture, and i'm afraid a lot of that will be lost forever.
The US has done that too, so we aren't totally innocent over here.

I've heard they are having troubles with Pakistan but I'd say they are trying to cozy up to island states or micro nations more so for military bases than anything I can't find it again but there was a big article about China and tango or something like that anyways China bailed them out of debt and China doesn't do anything for free.

stop that illusion, Bhutan is sacred nations powered by many dragons.
And the Chinese have no reason to invade that nations while they still cannot even manage their people haha

They're 'too afraid' because every single person at the top owes the vast majority of their wealth directly to their financial involvements with China.
Look to the real estate holdings around the world by the 1%; they don't care if China takes over the US or not.
