Due to the recent bonhomie evinced by Pakistan and US, instability in the CPEC corridor, China seems to be moving towards a maritime strategy.
Now China may be looking towards the Coco islands for a inroad via Myanmar to Soth China for its Energy lanes. India is also setting up its Nicobar base with eyes on Malacca strait and Chinese supply lines.
This might make the BoB very busy with Naval overlap, with both India and China trying to fight for a Naval Hegemony thereby raising a scenario of potential flashpoint in the zone.
