| Of course you see most of your major players in this thing right there in the top 30.
Indochina was invaded by China before in about 1980 and the Chinese got their butts kicked right back out of there. I don't think that Indochina is all that scared of China. With India onboard, I don't think they're scared one bit.
Japan and the Phillipines have too tense of a relationship with China to not side with India.
I disagree with the idea that Australia stays neutral. They've got a lot to lose.
Prolly right about OPEC wanting to be neutral. Quote: |
