All of South & SW Asia get their water from rivers flowing from the glaciers of the Tibetan plateau. That's why China took Tibet. And China has been busy building dams in the headwaters of the Ganges, Brahmaputra, Irrawaddy, and lots of other rivers in that region. All China's neighbors are angry, except NKorea, its only ally in the area. Burma just split w/China due to a dam. And now So.China is facing a new drought. The area is going to explode.
