(Beijing) Lhasa To (Delhi) Lumbini Railway

If this is the Asian century, a Beijing to Delhi train will be the most visible symbol of it. Trade is the best security/peace weapon. It is not an arms buildup. Border disputes are so 18th century. In the 21st century you lay down train tracks, you take broadband everywhere, you deepen trade ties and people to people contact, so much that national boundaries feel downright cosmetic.
