| Summary / Abstract (Note) | South Asia, as a region, has always ranked high in importance in China`s foreign policy calculations. Since its inception on October 1, 1949, China has had enduring interests in South Asia which is basically a derivative of the subcontinent's location on China`s southwestern flank, next to the troublesome Tibetan and Xinjiang regions. One of the primitive determinants of China`s South Asia policy was its borders dispute with five countries of the region. China shares land border with five South Asian countries, namely, Afghanistan, Bhutan, India, Nepal and Pakistan. These five South Asian countries got involve in latent boundary disputes with China as soon as the People`s Republic of China (PRC) was established and the colonialist power left the Indian subcontinent. |
