One of the biggest faults I see with the US media is that they actively
ignore substantial foreign issues unless the US is actively involved
(Afghanistan, parts of the Middle East) or else it is a pet issue
(Israel/Palestine).

As a result, we tend to not see the maneuvering of countries like India and
China in SE Asia. Considering how large and rapidly developing both these
nations are, it would behoove us to pay more attention because these
countries are likely to be some of our major rivals in the years to come.

In that spirit, I give you this article from VOA about India's plans to
move it's naval forces into the South China Sea to protect it's oil
exploration interests that it leases from Vietnam but which occurs in
waters that China claims as it's own territory. Interesting stuff.
