China army delegation supports Nepal Army with colossal amount: Media

Telegraph Nepal

Headlines of all major newspapers in Nepal March 24, 2011 read Chinese military support worth Rupees 1.3 Billion.

Albeit some remain scared and the rest have taken it in a normal manner.

The Nepal Army Chief Chhatra Man Singh Gurung and visiting Chief of General Staff of the Chinese Peoples’ Liberation Army Chen Bingde signed two separate agreements on Wednesday March 23, 2011, according to which China will provide around Rs. 1 Billion worth medical equipments to Birendra Military Hospital and around Rs. 300 Million worth construction equipments to Nepal Army to support its developments endeavors.

Chief Chen arrived in Kathmandu on a three day visit leading a high profile 18 member military delegation on Wednesday at the invitation of General Gurung.

This size and dimension of the visiting Chinese delegation itself has created ripples in the entire Himalayan Asian region.

In a brief encounter to media personnel at the Tribhuwan International Airport Chen hoped that his visit will further enhance mutual understanding and friendship between the two countries.

"We have made this visit for the purpose of further enhancing mutual understanding, promoting friendship, strengthening cooperation and enhancing the China- Nepal Comprehensive Partnership of Cooperation featuring ever- lasting friendship to move ahead constantly," Chen said.

Nepal’s high ranking military officials were present at the Airport to welcome the Chinese high dignitary.

The Chinese side has also extended an invitation to General Gurung to visit China. Gurung accepting the invitation and has expressed his willingness to visit China between end December 2011 to early January 2012.

The delegation will meet President Dr. Yadav today at Shital Niwas.

The Annapurna Post quotes unnamed Military source as saying, “Huge Chinese support has come at a time while India is only making repeated assurances of extending supports. The Chinese support is very important for us.”

It is the Indian habit of making noises, analysts opine.

“In 1989 when China had provided military support including Anti-Aircraft Guns, the Indian side had expressed its serious concerns”, Annapurna also writes.

The Indian annoyance was to the extent that it did away with the active monarchy by extending visible support to the then champions of political change in Nepal.

Late Chandra Shekhar, an Indian leader then, had virtually led the Nepali movement in 1990, analysts recall.

The Panchayat system collapsed withing months.

  • Umesh tu itni badi badi baatein karta hai samaj nahi sakta. China se weapon le lene se tu India par attack kar ke jeet lega kya. Jackal ka matlab yahi hai. If a jackal goes to tiger and borrows his nails and claws, the jackal will not become a tiger. Here jackal mean Nepal.Aur girl ka bhi maine example diya hai. In place of talking like this first go to the houses of poor and see how they are surviving for day to day needs. Then talk about attacking India.Why are hell bent on wiping out Nepal from the map of world.

  • Umesh do not dream of invading India. Borrowing a few claws form a tiger, a jackal does not become a tiger. Your point is that chinese will fight for you and keep your independence intact. Then you are absolutely mistaken. Study first the history of China and see how dangerous it is. If two tigers fight over a deer, either of them is going to gobble the deer. Or if two men fight for one girl either of one is going to f..k the girl after defeating fighting partner. Do not try to make Nepal a deer or a helpless girl. You seem to be a maoist with no brain.

  • We should make a pact with the Chinese. If we get military and political support from the China, Nepal will be able to invade India. A combined military force of Nepal and China can attack India and bring the country under our control. Just like what these kahires have done with Iraq and Afghanistan. We will also be able to get back out lost land to our east and west.
