Re: VN contra China

[Sonnet Nguyen <Sonnet.Nguyen@fuw.edu.pl>]

Hi,
Of course, I was not funny when I suppose that Chinese force can go to
Hanoi and Sajgon.  They don't do that not because they can not do 
that, but they have no benifit (morely they lose a lost) for doing
agression in this way.
You can not compare Tibet to VN.  VN is a big nation of 75 milions people 
(30% of US population and 50% of Rusian population) and it's imposible
to destroy and China can not do everything like in Tybet. 
VN is to dense for chinese ambition to expand their teritory.  If they
really want to expand (a normal ambition of regional superpower), then 
they look for Cybery (with only 8 milions rusians).
So VN-se earth's territorium is not attractive for China.
BUT VN-se sea (which is wrongly called by english: South Chine Sea) playes 
a strategical rule for development economy, transport and global military.
Probably in near future, sea will be more explored (sea has not only
OIL and GAS, but sea is our future ... read SF!) 
Of course, China don't want a total war with any country, because in fact 
Chinese force is really weak.  Many Chinese Military Ships are "out of
time".  They enrich in the last time and now they have a lot money for
paying Rusians for new Ships and SU, MIGs.   
My thesis is that if VN has weaker force in the earth and stronger force
in the sea, so it could be better.  ( I do not demand more moneys for
military!   Building a strong military potencial is unchanged element for 
every country.)
Of course, stronger VN-se force guarantes a peace for VN.  Stronger Force
is not for a war but for a peace.
