some Sajha Friends have been giving ample lot of comments and clarifications (with various academic stuffs) about the chances of China becoming a superpower. AS a newuser, I was expecting to hear a lot from the panel of IR experts to deliver their ideas on this Jigme matter. (taking note of how extensively the former topic was discussed) Does the BHutanese King really need to comment on the Maoist issue? And at this point of time. There is apparently not a dot of threat to Bhutan from the Nepali Maoists. Maoists themselves have never spoken anything that should worry King Jigmey.They have not even raised the concerns about repatriating Nepali refugees .Neither have Nepalis sought any assistance or help or whatsoever from Buthan in this regard. So does the King's comment have any relevence in the present scenario??Or he wants to dump the repatriation agenda out of bilateral dialogue.? what implications are there of his comments. Does it matter anything with our diplomatic fragility or inability that a despotic(to the Nepali speaking minority) king sensing threat to his country from the rebels in Nepal while in visit to India? what observations does the students and experts of diplomacy and IR make out of this. There are lots of books and journals and publications about China and Russia and Japan and India and US. But how are events of these nature observed by the Nepalese experts? why do you think JIgme has opened his mouth on Maoists now????I hope I would get answers to my questions from the learned people.Thanks Newuser
