He identified these threats as the East China Sea, where China is currently engaged in a dispute with Japan; the South China Sea, whose waters and islands are disputed by several countries; and the newly emerging financial, cyberspace and outer space threats. For a famed PLA hawk, Major General Luo expressed a surprisingly upbeat view on relations with India. Despite the recent strains after the April 15 Chinese incursion in Depsang that sparked a three-week stand-off, he said he was of the view that relations were smooth and stable following Premier Li Keqiangs visit to New Delhi in May. We should both manage the border together, he said, and neither side should cause trouble. We do not want to see any unexpected incident.
