Sure India will dominate in Space Technology with economic development. I suspect that ground level coordination and use of information is to be planned first.

China and Pakistan are now building Rat holes and bunkered tunnels all over so these areas will also be a critical part to look at deep down earth activities. Watch out for all dirty activities out there.

Resources valuable for humanity are diverted to defense as we have not many choices.

How many Nuclear warheads these countries will have, no one knows. Cold war have drifted in this zone so the entire world need to watch out as build up of stress is a real one and these are prompting more serious defense plans.

One fool can trigger a chain reaction to ruin the entire world. Good people need to play their wise role all the time and be watchful to set things right in time.
