Interestingly, the Global Times report claims, the tension along the disputed border between the two countries has escalated in the last few days after India's military move. Indian Prime Minister Manmohan Singh, it claimed, said his government would make no concessions to China on territorial disputes.
The report quotes Arunachal Pradesh Pradesh Governor retired General J J Singh as saying, 'The move was intended to meet future security challenges from China.'

This is a big media HYPE created by Global Times and amplified by Rediff. The original poll even not mention India as a threat. Can Rediff Editors do some homework?
The original report of GT is here : http://opinion.globaltimes.cn/top-photo/2009-06/436522.html .

The Poll titled as "Indian PM speak sharply about China's South Tibet territory"
there are 4 questions:
1. How should China to deal with India's anti-Indian separatist forces? (openly support 38%, vaguely support 43%, never support 15%, dont know 4%)
2. Do you think China should be at all costs to safeguard Sino-Indian friendship? (Yes 8%, No 75%, dont care 17%)
3. Do you think India's unfriendly attitude toward China the greatest harm to whom? (China 16%, India 66%, dont know 18%)
4. How do you view India's recent frequently anti-China voices? (The ploy of India's new government to consolidate power 12%, True reflection of the hostile mentality towards the Chinese 37%, To gain from the international anti-China groups 51%)
That's all.
How can anyone summary from this poll that "90 per cent of the Chinese think India poses the BIGGEST threat to its existence" ? No wonder China says India likes to brag !
