Maoists in Tamil Nadu get Chinese Arms from Sri Lanka – truthdive reports

Source : http://truthdive.com/2015/01/13/maoists-in-tamil-nadu-get-chinese-arms-from-sri-lanka.html

Chennai, Jan 13 (TruthDive): Maoists in the tricolour region are getting Chinese arms shipped from Sri Lanka to Vizag, said a report filed by an officer of Q branch of Tamil Nadu police.

Q branch was set by Tamil Nadu police a decade back to tackle the naxalites’ movement. Naxalites from Andhra were dominant among the farmers in Dharmapuri and after massive crackdown by Q branch , it was put under control. Q branch later was used by successive governments to monitor political rivals.

A report with the top cop says that as LTTE were no longer operating in Sri Lanka, Chinese arms’ dealers are now tapping the Maoists in India. As before, the guns and ammunition are shipped to Lankan coast. From there it is taken to Vizag by sea. This in turn is supplied to Maoists operating in the forest region borders of Tamil Nadu, Kerala and Karnataka.

The report says that Maoists in Kerala get their arms from Bihar. Report has however been debunked by Tamil Nadu police as the person who filed the report could not give any evidence.

Police say that the Maoists did not have the cash to buy them and were mostly spotted with rifles looted from police stations or outposts. Secondly, the nearest base to touch India is Rameswaram coast. Tamil Nadu police have however confirmed that their patrol teams have so far sighted the Maoist groups 65 times in the tri- zone. Five wanted Maoists are said to be based in this region.

Maoists are now working towards an armed struggle to liberate the Adivasis in the region from the clutches of mainland traders who have taken over the lands and made them slaves. Though the governments are putting up funds, rehabilitation process is very poor. Most of the lands that were given to Adivasi families have been mortgaged with moneylenders. Kerala- Tamil Nadu border on the Palghat side reported Maoists attacks.

India – Vietnam relations, coming of age :

Vietnam is approximately the size of Rajasthan State in India.  Though the relations between these two countries can be traced back to 2^nd century AD, until the ‘Look East Policy’ initiated by the PV Narasimha Rao Government, the relations did not bolster much.  Relations were vigorously pursued by the subsequent dispensations in India, except for a brief lull, primarily as a tool of establishing itself as a Regional Power and as a counter-weight to Chinese influence in the South China Sea Region.  Much after the fall of Communism, most of the Foreign Missions focus their energy towards economic relations looking for new markets. Strategic focus of the Foreign Missions receded to the back-seat.

India granted MFN status to Vietnam as early as 1975.  Between 2001 to 2006, it’s estimated that the volume of trade between the two countries has escalated to 1 Billion USD.  After the Asean-India Free Trade pact in 2010, bilateral trade rose to about 3 Billion USD.

China relatively established closer ties with Countries like Myanmar [Burma], Pakistan, Sri Lanka and now has almost set up its control entirely over Tibet.  However, it could not muster such relationship with Taiwan, Vietnam, Thailand and Philippines.  It almost has disputes with each of these countries particularly over the South China Sea access.

India necessarily had to go over to the back-yard of China through these China Sea region countries.

Though China uses boundary disputes to engage India, it has relatively settled its entire 800 mi boundary with Vietnam.  Notwithstanding such common boundary and previous history of communism in Vietnam, China is unable to bring about a considerable level of influence over the Vietnamese which India uses to its advantage.

 

MGC

Part of its Look East Policy, India engaged the regional neighbors Thailand, Myanmar, Cambodia, Laos and Vietnam into the Mekong-Ganga Cooperation [MGC] during the year 2000 but with a non-strategic emphasis. The sixth Cooperation Meeting took place in New Delhi on 13-Sept-2012.

Right back in the year 2000, Vietnam supported India for Permanent Member seat of the Security Council as well as to join the Asia Pacific Economic Cooperation [APEC].

This was followed by the Joint Declaration by the two countries for creating an ‘Arc of Advantage and Prosperity’ during 2003.

In October 2011, ONGC International Limited and Petro Vietnam signed an agreement for Gas exploration.  China was quick to react by objecting to Indian presence in the region, though they very much were involved in port expansion in Sri Lanka [Hambantota] as well as in Pakistan [Gwadar].

After several rounds of establishing economic relationship, both Countries moved ahead for a declared Strategic Partnership, not much to the liking of China.

India conducted its Operational Deployment of Fleet during March to May 2011, comprising of INS Ranvir, Ranvijay, Jyoti , Kirch for deployment in South China Sea and Western Pacific.  The ships called at Singapore, Subic Bay & Manila in Philipines, Vlapostok in Russia, Ho Chi Minh City in Vietnam as well as Brunei, Malaysia and Indonesia.  This was considered a show of strength and placed as part of periodic deployment in International waters and to make its presence felt in the SCS region.

This was followed by SIMBEX, a bilateral exercise with Singapore Navy again in the SCS region.

As part of its posturing, Chinese Navy [PLAN] challenged INS Airavat during July-2011, as near as 45 nautical miles off the Vietnamese Coast.  The Vietnamese Ambassador at New Delhi quickly made a statement ‘Indian Ships are welcome in our seas’ much to the resentment of China.  But the weak legged dispensation at Delhi played this down and in fact went ahead to make an éclair back-bone statement ‘there was no confrontation involving INS Airavat’.  So much so for instilling confidence in our Naval forces.  Delhi had disowned the Indian Navy in this context.

The Eastern Fleet again made an operational deployment in the SCS region and called on Hai Phong during May 2012.

As part of its planting of deceptive info around the world Universities, certain out of college political analysts from the west, particularly in the US were the first to negative report these events to the advantage of China.  The premise being that Vietnam has an old age fleet mostly out of Russia and cannot become any sort of deterrent force in the near future.

Contrary to such reports, emboldened by the Indian support, Vietnam went ahead to purchase 2 kilo class subs from Russia.  Currently [Sept. 2014], Vietnamese naval personnel undergo training at INS Satavahana [Vizag] facility in naval undersea tactics and doctrine at the School of Advanced Undersea Warfare.

However, eastern academic analysts some even within the Chinese system have repeatedly acknowledged Vietnam’s Varshavyanka-class submarines’ strike capability.

India recently provided Vietnam with a $100 million credit to purchase six Ocean Patrol Vessels, though the deal is not yet finalized.

These events may not act as a deterrent to China, but Vietnam will certainly be able to maintain maritime sovereignty in the region.  Japan on the other side has a sufficient deterrent naval force in case of conflict.

When the Vietnamese Prime Minister Nguyen Tan Dung visited New Delhi two weeks back and called New Delhi to play an active role in SCS region, China readily cautioned India that it would not tolerate any third party involvement in dispute resolution.  When the Vietnamese Prime Minister was in New Delhi, Yang Jeichi, a Senior Chinese Diplomat visited Hanoi to bring relations back to track as it’s said in Diplomatic language for arm-twisting.  Immediately the Vietnamese Government declared that they would want to improve bilateral ties.  Was the Vietnamese PM out of the Country to avoid his arm being twisted is another story.

Today [05-Nov-2014] Chinese sub Changzheng-2 and warship Chang Xing Dao docked at Colombo harbor and likely to stay put for next five days.  India expressed its resentment to Sri Lanka.

A closer look into the Naval activities in the SCS Region does not look routine.

China’s Debt challenge – Real Estate – The roller-coaster begins

Malabar Exercises 2014

Third time India, Japan and the United States started the joint Malabar Naval Exercises with warships, submarines, aircrafts and helicopters in the north-western Pacific since yesterday. This US Indian operations started since 1992. For the third time India invited Japan to participate. The “harbor phase”  began on July 24 and the “sea phase” is slated for July 27.

As can be seen in the previous story below [String of pearls], China strongly protested when Japan, Australia, and Singapore joined exercise in 2007. According to India, they will not participate in a U.S. led counter China policy with other countries. As usual US denies this has anything to do with their China Policy.

India has sent three warships; INS Ranvijay the guided-missile destroyer, INS Shivalik the stealth frigate, the tanker INS Shakti, and also Kamov-28 and Chetak helicopters. U.S. is participating with its nuclear-powered aircraft carrier the USS George Washington, USS Shiloh, an Ticonderoga class destroyer, John S McCain an Arleigh Burke-class destroyer and the nuclear submarine USS Columbus. US is expected to use the P-3 Orion aircraft and MH-60R helicopters. Japan deployed its destroyers, the JS Kurama and the JS Ashigara, as well as the US-2i ShinMaywa amphibious aircraft.  Japan earlier had offered to sell this to India. India during the recent weeks also participated in naval exercises with the Russian Navy in Vladivostok, Russia.

China will again react.

The ‘Wa Way’ challenge

That’s how Huawei is pronounced.

As of October 2007, Huawei, China, sought resignation of its 7000 employees and re-hired them on short term contracts, though condemned by Local Govt. in China & Trade Unions.

By Jan 2009, Huawei faced unprecedented problems in the USA as well as Australia, but piggy backed into Australia on Vodafone.

In India BSNL awarded Ericsson with 25 million lines for North Zone, Huawei with 18 million lines for East Zone, and 25 million lines in South Zone. BSNL initially wanted Huawei to be awarded with Western Zone, but then Govt. refused permission. Total contracts were estimated to be around USD 6.5 billion.But BSNL cancelled 20 million line GSM network contract after the conditions imposed by Huawei were unacceptable. Alcatel Lucent was considered to take over the contract.

Later CBI probe revealed at least 6 officers helped this Chinese firm win the contract based on confidential reports of Security Agencies to the PMO. CVC is learnt to have instructed CBI to investigate deeper into the deal. IB & R&AW raised objections giving Huawei 25 million mobile lines. The Contract itself was worth over Rs. 30000 crores for building 93 million line mobile network all over the Country for the BSNL. The Intel Agencies feared Huawei might rig the network [the Coco Island listening posts story in the loop].  By December enough red flags went up all over the Govt.  The Security agencies in India became suspicious after learning that Indian employees in Huawei, Bangalore facilities allegedly did not have access to part of R & D building.  2000 Indian engineers and just 30 Chinese Engineers were employed in this R & D facility. Intel agencies took note that Chinese employees were on 1 ½ yr. international assignments to serve as a technical bridge with China. During April 2010, two of five top officials of BSNL were removed from sensitive zones after security agencies submitted a report to the Prime Minister’s Office regarding their doubtful integrity and “dubious” links with these Chinese firms. CBI later pressed charges against top BSNL officials.

After investigations, by May 2010, BSNL, on pressure from the Intel agencies, imposed conditions that Huawei would be allowed to import Chinese made equipment into India, only if pre-certified by the Canada’s Electronic Warfare Associates, US based Infoguard & Israel’s ALTAL Security Consulting.

After these investigations, during March 2012, only ‘The Hindu’ reported Huawei invited Govt. to inspect India offices.  But this story was not followed by any credible info that in fact these offices were inspected.  It can never be confirmed if this was a planted news with no real intentions of extending such invitation for inspection.

Huawei clients in India includes Airtel, Reliance, BSNL, Uninor, MTNL, Tata, but curiously not Vodafone, which chose ZTE. It tried to establish & gain social legitimacy by introducing something called as Maitree Scholarships, debuted in the field of cricket by becoming principal sponsors of RC B’lore in IPL, etc.

By April 2014, it was confirmed that Huawei had hacked into BSNL networks.  An inter-ministerial investigation was ordered into Huawei & ZTE.

IB reported that both Hwawei & ZTE are part of PLAN.

Humint :

Flextronics, an US Tech giant, has its manufacturing facilities at Sriperumpudur, near Chennai, and their warehouse @ Sengadu Village, in Thiruvallur Dist., TN.

The ‘Wa way’ connection works like this from inside.

Huawei put up a board on the premises of Flextronics, Sriperumpudur facility during January 2014. Agitated employees sat on a strike and demanded to know if they are employees of Flextronics or ‘Wa way’.

Components & boards are imported by Wa way, brought down to the factory of Flextronics @ Chennai. They are stripped off their seals and Flextronics seals are put up afresh. Firmware is loaded. Similar activities is said to go on in Flextronics, Chennai Taramani, facilities. Employees became curious since whenever ‘Wa way’ containers land into their facilities, a shroud of secrecy prevails and in all urgency stripping, re-sealing and loading of Firmware are undertaken and the products are sent out of the factory.  Never are they allowed to remain within these facilities for more than 3 days.

Why would Wa Way import the products, remove the seals, re-seal as if manufactured by Flextronics & get this back.

If BSNL sought Huawei for pre-certification, how is Huawei permitted to import hardware.

The reverse question is of larger denomination.

Why would Huawei import products that come with its seal, remove them, re-seal with Flextronics & get it back as if manufactured by Flextronics. A simple answer may be ‘in enterprise all this is possible’.  Or is there something else to this ?

Why did NBN ban ‘Wa way’ and why did ‘Wa way’ piggy back on Vodafone into Australia ? Did NBN turn a blind eye on this ?

Why after Congressional Investigation was ‘Wa way’ refused permission to operate within USA ?

Why did Huawei hack into BSNL networks ?

What’s the Warangal, Andhra Pradesh, Coco Islands, Myanmar connection…

Counter-intel lack of logic :

BSNL to top it all reported the breach [of hacking its Network] not to the Security establishment of the Country but to >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>‘Wa way’.

What the heck…….are they novice or are they stupid. The answer to this component of the story lies within the Board of Management of Huawei >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>in India.

After-word :  May 14-16, 2014, Prime Minister Modi visited China.  About 24 agreements were stated to have been entered. Telecom takeaway was not stated anywhere.

May, 2015, Modi made his second visit to China.  China promised to behave maturely. July 2015, Waway got its security clearances and permitted to set up shop in Tamil Nadu for manufacturing Telecom equipment.  Telecom equipment is not the same as Mobile phones. No piggy-back ideas anymore.

None to reveal what happened to the security concerns earlier raised by the Intel agencies, including pre-certification.

Hacking into BSNL, what hacking.  Warangal, Coco Islands…ho stop writing.

They after all did not retaliate when we pulled down their telecom towers before Winter sets in.  Then the borders would become inaccessible for next few months.

It’s business as usual.

On the sidelines, Foxconn, manufacturing iPhones in China, is said to have decided to set up 10 plants in India by 2020 and is likely to manufacture iPhones in India by then.

String of pearls Vs Diamond Necklace

In 1971, United States brought Senkaku islands to Japan’s administrative control. USA had earlier occupied these islands immediately after the WW II when Japan surrendered. USA & Japan have a treaty where USA is under obligation to protect Japan from any military aggression. Much earlier during 1968 certain Oil reserves were found in these islands.  Both China & Taiwan claim these islands to be theirs.  But Japan has been exercising control & sovereignty over these islands over years now, though they are uninhabited.   Japan claims to have annexed these islands since 1895.

During September 2012, Japan nationalised these islands by purchasing them from the Kurihara family allegedly for 2.5 Billion Yen.

Trouble and rhetoric started when China objected to this when its Foreign Minister said ‘China would not sit back & watch’.  Japan does not accept there being a dispute as it treats the islands as its integral part.

China has now taken up this issue to the UN much alike as Philipines took up the Scarborough shoals issue to the UN.  China ended with a double whammy, the aggressor as well as the aggressed.

For the first time in recent history after WW II, Japan is putting forth a military foot affront by retorting China of any adventure in these islands.  USA technical as usual remains neutral, however encourages the Malabar exercises by bringing in India, Australia & USA naval forces for exercises.  India invited Japan into these exercises on 25th of Jan, 2014, much riling China.

Earlier in 2007 when these exercises commenced in the Bay of Bengal region, with India, USA, Australia and Singapore navies participating in the Malabar war games, China registered its protest.

The ‘String of Pearls’ policy of China, India has its answer in a Diamond Necklace’ policy.  India had to develop & improve its strategic relations with the China sea region countries.

Commodore Uday Bhasker of India comments that the Indian Naval tactical capability is much ahead of China’s, rightly after the above situation has emerged to India’s advantage.

Prime Minister Shinzo Abe’s visit to India to participate in its Republic Day parade and to have a closer look at India’s military might at display on Jan, 26th, 2014, preceded by the Japan’s royal visit during December 2013, followed by its Defence Minister visit, are crucial and well timed, seen from the above perspective.

Clearly China pulled its plug on the incursions both at Kashmir & Arunachal borders.  China obviously has no capability to put down its foot on three theaters of war like situations.

South-China Sea – The next bone of contention

In March, 2014, Li Keqiang presented an increase of 12.2% in annual military budget, amounting to 808.2 billion yuan (132 billion US dollars).  Though this is the official figure, a conservative estimate of expenditure over this would be 40 %.

China is determined to settle scores with the Countries in its ‘near seas’, that is, the Yellow, East China & South Chine Seas, on its on terms.  It’s near aim may  be to push any hostile forces and dominate the ‘first island chain, beyond Philippines, Taiwan & Japan.

Recently, Philippines sued China before the UN Court at Hague against China’s claim over the ‘nine dash-line’ area including the Scarborough Shoals.  China ignored previous protests by Philippines on PLAN’s [People’s Liberation Army Navy] arrests of Philippines fishermen. Philippines claims historical rights over the area.  The shoals fall within its EEZ territories.

The Chinese claims are aimed at a larger maritime advantage of cutting high-seas rights of other countries of the Region as well as USA, Japan & India [with its Trade interests in the region].  In case of a stand-off, the passage will become a no-go zone for ships with PLANavy literally holding fort on both ends of the South China Sea.

The PLANavy’s East & South Sea fleets have deployed 2 Nuclear Attack submarines and a host of its armada concentrated in the region.

With its huge Naval Modernization program and the present increase in Defense Budget, this region will be the next bone of contention for international maritime disputes.

USA was all along branded for its occupation mind set, including the displacing elected leaders, placing its puppet regimes, to destabilizing  popular governments by adopting subversion techniques.  It’s China’s turn now.

It’s not ‘Chess’ but ‘Go’ China is playing.

What’s India doing to counter this ?

This was CHINA proper.  Chinese heartland of ethnic Han people, without Tibet,
Xinjiang, Mongolia, or Manchuria, all much disputed formerly. The islands of Taiwan and Hainan, all part of modern China, are shown with a different color border.

This was a 1735 map of China by French cartographer Jean-Baptiste d’Anville printed by a German publishing house.  China now claims sovereignty over these territories.

China also claims Arunachal Pradesh as being part of PRC territory.

Have they occupied Arunachal Pradesh ?  What’s that China claims here as its ?

CICIR – China Institutes of Contemporary International Relations

See the plural in ‘Institutes’.

Why do we see many Chinese students in India these days ?  Are they all really educating themselves ?

The China Institutes of Contemporary International Relations (中国现代国际关系研究院) — one of China’s most influential think tanks — researches the entire range of international affairs spanning all continents. 

CICIR is an affiliate of China’s top intelligence agency, the Ministry of State Security (MSS,国家安全部).

It’s also known as the Eighth Bureau of the MSS.

CICIR provides intelligence collection support to the MSS and the Foreign Affairs Lead Group (FALG), the CPC’s top foreign policy body.

CICIR has always been “bureaucratically subordinate to the FALG” — and hence FALG is its pay master.

CICIR — China’s “oldest” international relations think tank and the only one that continued to function during the Cultural Revolution — is essentially a “Soviet-style intelligence organ.”

The MSS and CICIR have built an OSINT system to allow greater intel sharing with the various PRC government departments, which is nothing but a deception method for maintaining plausible deniability as well as its credibility in International arena.

CICIR researchers Gong Xiaosheng (宫小生), Geng Huichang (耿惠昌), Xu Tao (许涛), Feng Yujun (冯玉军), and Li Dong (李东) traveled to Kiev and Lvov to “glean social and political information” about Ukraine and Georgia.The visit was an attempt to coordinate the MSS’s efforts to monitor the political situation in the two former Soviet republics and to help CICIR analyze “how the CIA had used NGOs” to foment revolution. Gong & Geng were Chinese Ambassadors to Turkey & Jordan. Geng Huichang presently heads the MSS called as Minister for State Security.

CICIR Conducts Global Outreach Program

CICIR runs a well-established global outreach program to increase its collaboration with foreign diplomats, scholars, and think tanks, primarily by hosting international conferences, holding closed-door meetings with foreign guests, and sending representatives to overseas academic meetings.

PRC media report that CICIR has also occasionally hosted or co-hosted international symposiums discussing regional or global issues, including “The Changing World and China”, “Advanced Technology Development and Contemporary International Relations”.

CICIR Research Institutes, Divisions, and Centers

includes 11 research institutes, eight research centers, two research divisions, and several administrative departments, according to its official website. CICIR is currently staffed with 380 researchers and administrative personnel, of which 150 are research fellows or associate research fellows. But it does not provide any information about the differences between research institutes, research divisions, and research centers.

CICIR’s Chinese name was modified slightly, from “Zhongguo Xiandai Guoji Guanxi Yanjiu Suo” (中国现代国际关系研究所) to “Zhongguo Xiandai Guoji Guanxi Yanjiu Yuan” (中国现代国际关系研究院). Both names are rendered the same in English.

Fu Xiaoqiang (傅小强) former director of the CICIR, Center for Counter-Terrorism Studies, is an expert on Southeast Asian issues and has given frequent interviews to PRC media outlets on the Sino-Indian relationship and security issues in India, Pakistan, and Afghanistan.  Fu was formerly deputy director of the CICIR Center for Third World Studies and deputy research fellow at the CICIR Institute of West Asian and African Studies.

We’d be naive not to know that agents of MSS through one of their cover institutes infiltrate this Country with deceptive student cover.

These students come to India, TO LEARN ENGLISH ?

Language learning is an excellent cover to do specific OSINT & other types of INT ops called as Consumption Centers with such deceptive student cover.

Asia Pacific Exchange & Coop. Foundation [APECF] is also a Front for the MSS that launders over $3 billion in covert INT Ops.

Chinese Propaganda in India

Any common Indian these days perceive China as a militarily & economically strong country.

This perception is mostly received from the Indian Media presentation.  In the name of presenting facts, opinions are interlineated by the Media to pose a grave threat factor.

The former CoAS Gen. V.K. Singh stated the Indian Army today is not that it was in 1962.

Very few Indian Media groups have resident representatives in China.

Reports from China having no bureau in China means no verifying of stories.  News reporting [views] are oft covered including the Opinion pages, peppering quotes from this or that Researcher from CICIR.

Some of these Editors are perceived – China men.
