Political transition paves ways for stronger ties

Say Chinese leaders

BSS, Dhaka
Leaders of (he visiting high-profile Chinese delegation yesterday said the installation of new elected government in Bangladesh after a smooth political transition paved ways for enhanced Dhaka-Beijing ties as China was exploring means to ensure balance in its relations with South Asian nations.
India, Pakistan and Bangladesh are three major nations in South Asia while China is the fourth one in the construct (composition)... the ties between these countries should not be conflicting in the interest of the region," president of the Chinese think tank Sanghai Institutes for International Studies SUS Dr Yang Jiemian told at a roundtable on China-South Asia strategic relations
Presenting a keynote paper at the conference, SUS Director Zhao Gancheng said the peaceful political transition installing a democratic government in Bangladesh created enhanced scopes for expanding Dhaka-
Beijing ties, particularly In trade and economic arena
"This (transition) will earn Bangladesh more supports from China," Gancheng said.
Bangladesh Institute of Peace and Security Studies (BIPSS) staged the roundtable where BBC World Service's senior editorial adviser Dr S Mahmud Ali presented another keynote paper.
Admiral (retd) Ravi Bhora of India, Brig Gen Sajjad Rasul of Pakistan High Commission in Dhaka, former foreign secretary Shamsher Mobin Chowdhury, Maj Gen (retd) AMSA Amin and Nurus Safa of National Defence College, among others, took part in the discussion moderated by BIPSS President Maj Gen (retd) ANM Muniruzzarnan.
Mahmud Ali said South Asia's future approach to China would be shaped by the region's internal dynamic, how regional actors relate to each other, as he described South Asia to be a "noncoherent subsystem" in Asia.
"Until now, they have operated on a
'reactive' basis towards China, built around two sets of dynamics firstly, India's relationship with its neighbours and secondly New Delhi's ties with China," he said.
Since these dynamics varied slightly over time, Ah said (he South Asia China framework proved to be a moving target while "because of the fragmentation within South Asia, there has been a divide between pro-China and antiChina camps.”
SIIS President Yang liemian said since 1970s, China "modified" its position through a transition while the Chinese leadership now were trying to construct a "farer" and "just" international system with a "non-western" outlook and to "shift the centre of gravity from West to East."
Zhao said China was working very hard to strike a balance in its ties with South Asian neighbours particularly in view of the strains in ties between New Delhi and Islamabad. '
