Beijing:China’s activities on the Indian Ocean are increasing. Recently it has named 19 features in Chinese. Apart from this, Chinese research and survey ships often keep patrolling in this area. These ships are visible in a 90-degree sector and operate only around it. According to experts, by doing this, China’s aim is to prepare a sea map for its submarines in the Indo-Pacific region in the coming times. On 13 April, China’s research and survey ship Hai Yang Shi Yu 760 crossed the Maleka Straits. The ship remained on the Indian Ocean for about four months.
Off to China port
According to the Marine Traffic website, the Chinese research ship left the coast of Singapore and then headed towards the Chinese port of Zhangjiang. It departed after stocking up on logistics and balance at the Indonesian port of Balikpapan. In the last decade, along with China’s survey and research ships, several strategic satellite tracking ships have intensified their activities on the Indian Ocean.

What is the purpose of China
China’s aim is to capture the seas around the world under the Belt and Road Initiative. Under this initiative, China wants to include the east coast of Africa. Countries along Africa’s eastern seaboard—from South Africa to Djibouti—are buried under Chinese debt. In such a situation, the security of the Indian Pacific becomes more important. Apart from big countries like Sri Lanka, Pakistan, Myanmar, Cambodia and Laos, the economic conditions are also very serious in countries like Indonesia and they have also become under China’s Yuan. In addition, China is increasing its stake in the Middle East with Shia-Sunni powers. In this situation, the security of the coasts seems to be very weak for democratic powers like India, Australia and Japan.
