The US exercises with India, Japan, Philippines, Vietnam (a rare activity!) and positioning of two naval ships permanently at Singapore, indicates that US' warning to China of the consequences.

The US would also ensure that the Pakistan and Myanmar coast would be blockaded with the sixth Fleet, stationed in Bahrain.

Rayji - that's quite a handful for the US to handle, if without help from others eg especially Indian or Japanese Navies ?

It does serve the purpose if there is anything more than just "practice" and to learn from others. It sure is the beginning of an alliance to secure individual interest against a common threat.

The next cold war will be in the IOR.
Yusuff bhai the cold war has always been in the IOR since the 60s and 70s. We just turned a blind eye to it.

Well the Atlantic and Pacific was where the cat and mouse game was. Cold war was fought all over the world otherwise. But the next one between China and the Rest, will certainly be in IOR.
