Issue has recently heated up so I'm saving some links here to look at over the weekend. (Unless somebody else wants to go at them first.)

Indian base diplomacy
This constitutes part of India's efforts to provide military aid to Indian Ocean Region (IOR) countries to counter China's inroads into the region. Seems to be a pearl stringing race going on. Hcobb (talk) 21:32, 17 February 2011 (UTC)
- It also says, “India, incidentally, has also stepped up the visits of its warships to the region to help in anti-piracy operations.” Mrt3366 (Talk page?) (New section?) 20:15, 24 August 2012 (UTC)
Should be String of Pearls (India)
Some of the sources say that the Indians named a possibly unconnected series of Chinese actions the String of Pearls so the term is at much Indian as Chinese. (Whom seem to have never used the term.) Hcobb (talk) 17:12, 3 September 2010 (UTC)
It was actually an American analyst who came up with the term, but what you're saying is valid: the term is really only used by western analysts and Indian media. It has never been an official strategy of the Chinese government. Yi Ding (talk) 01:54, 6 June 2013 (UTC)
