I would agree Vietnam certainly seems to be going with the west on the issue of China. India seem keen to improve relations with China while still keeping in with the west. I would certainly not gamble on them being on our side in the future even if they won't actually be against us. They and the Chinese have more to gain from working together than ever fighting each other, as we all begin to fall apart in the west increasing trade between China and India will be increasingly important for both nations, as the population in each nation get more wealth then domestic markets will be ever more important for them, while we will be less important than ever.
