Read the interview of 72 year old Prof. Wang Hong Wei (published in Kantipur). He is very high up in China’s prime official think tank, the Chinese Academy of Social Sciences (CASS). The head of CASS holds the rank of a politburo member of the Chinese Communist Party (CCP).

Read the interview carefully, Sikkimization of Nepal is a REAL THREAT not just paranoia or anti-india feeling and should not be taken lightly.

Here is the direct quote from the interview "China knows very well that India wants to turn Nepal into a second Bhutan or Sikkim.  Moreover, Nepal may enter the process of "Sikkim-isation". But, China must not let this situation occur. China will always lend its support to keep Nepal sovereign, free and united."

No Sikkimization of Nepal is not a joke. The Sikkimization process of Nepal started during the reign of Nehru and still continues. During the Nepal visit Nehru (he visited Nepal 3-4 times) used to say that India's northern border are the Himalayas referring to the Himalayas of Nepal. Border encroachment is an everyday problem in the indo-nepal border. India wants Nepal with all its might, if it was easy we would not still be Nepali, it is not that easy for India..

When India took over Sikkim, one journalist asked the them Prime Minister of India - Indira Gandhi "what about Nepal?" Indira Gandhi responded "We will not take Nepal by bullets, we will take Nepal by ballots"

There are lots of historical facts to be said, I will if time permits...
