CHINDIA TAKES DIRECT HIT
The idea that the eastward shift in the global balance of power will be defined as the rise of China and India is put to rest now. Imagine if the Shanghai Securities Exchange announced it would close in the middle of the trading week because the police did not have control over the city and foreign tourists many of them business travelers were taken hostage in the Jin Mao Tower. India's "911" is more "Oklahoma City" and a sign that the territories of the subcontinent are still being defined. And how is that India/Tibet/China boundary coming along?
