Due to an odd twist of politics, China controls most of the water in Asia as it originates in Tibet, meaning that China's downstream neighbours depend on the goodwill of CCP for a reliable freshwater supply. So, in this video, we take a look at how China controls Asia's water, why it's becoming an issue, and what might happen next.

Ok, so there are some factual inaccuracies. Hydrological survey of Brahmaputra showed that 80% of the water in the river comes from the catchment area in India and not Tibet. Similarly, Indus captures water later as it crosses into Pakistan
exactly.....these people rely only on primary sources......they are very lazy to do indepth research before making a video.
This can be confirmed on google maps as the Brahmaputra drainage basin mostly lies within India
The region is also geographically one of the wettest places on earth, with a village called Mawsynram in that region receiving an average annual rainfall of 11,872 millimetres (467.4 in), making it one of the wettest places on Earth as mentioned on Wikipedia.
It's just their fantasies
Not the first time this channel spread misinformation about India. In a recent video they claimed that Modi is winning elections only because of "Hindu nationalism".
Paajjeet, look up where Indus, Satluj, Brahmaputra starts from and why there are floods in Kashmir, himachal, Arunachal, Assam
Fear of Brahmaputra water diversion might be a myth.. according to an article I read by United states institute of peace , % of water in Brahmaputra entering from China, might be as low as 7% . Such low % of water controlled by China , must be the reason Indian govt is not taking this too seriously
You studied well
But the Indian media is taking it very seriously 😏 just like the issue of illegal immigration, Love Jihad and all other stuff that doesn't really impact more than 0.1% of the population

This poor Channel couldn't even put a Proper Map & they are explaining about "China,Water,Asia..",My as*, 80-85% of Water of Indus,Ganges, Brahmaputra originates in Indian Himalayas,Just Becoz their Starting Point is in China, Doesn't mean They have 100% of Water Coming from them, Learn Basics first AND USE PROPER MAPS,India has 65% of Control of Ladakh and Kashmir & 100% Control over Arunachal Pradesh
I can understand Kashmir but put Arunachal as Indian because India literally controls it
use the word administrate rather using control.
@@surajkumar-fi2tf control is still neutral. Occupied would have different meanings like how it is Russian occupied crimea and Ukraine.

its contested, so therefore it owns to no one.
Stop being so nationalist and dont get butthurt over a stupid map.
@@chimonellimonInternationally it is regarded as a territory of India, it's legal status is pretty solid in international law. Most of the international maps have marked Kashmir by division of administration while Arunachal Pradesh had remained untouched.
@@chimonellimonmaps does matter, it might seem insignificant to you but using incorrect map can also mean questioning the sovereignty and unity of the country. Its a serious matter.
I will never understand using what criteria these people classify disputed regions on their maps, if you show kashmir and Arunachal pradesh as disputed areas. Why don't you also show Taiwan as disputed?
It's always better to use maps that show borders as the end of a country's physical jurisdiction. That would be a truly neutral map.
If that happens then they wouldn’t be showing PoK and CoK as Indian because India doesn’t control it. I do agree it’s stupid to show arunachal as disputed because even countries like US recognize that it’s Indian
exactly.
These people follow the will of their government. But in this cass they have shaded it to shay these regions are disputed.
Not the first time this channel spread misinformation about India. In a recent video they claimed that Modi is winning elections only because of "Hindu nationalism".
Also why isn't Tibet classified as disputed!

Not sure what you mean, they said China annexed Tibet
@@0oShwavyo0Tibet returned to China as it had been part of China for all of Qing Dynasty.
@@Western_Decline It was not ruled by the Qing, it was a vassal of the Qing, similar to Mongolia or Korea(neither of which are part of modern China). Tibet was not ruled from Beijing the way, say, Shandong was.
The Qing was also not an ethnically Chinese empire. It's ruling class was Manchu, and there were multiple laws and other systems to keep the Chinese population subordinate.
@@jasonquigley2633I dont think you can compare Korea with Tibet and Mongolia. While the Qing exerted relatively few control over these lands than to say Shangdong, they were still officially part of the Qing. In this sense, vassal doenst mean puppet state, but in a manner of subservient relation towards a liege
@@jasonquigley2633Qing after settling down in China quickly became sinicized. To say Qing aristocracy wasn’t Chinese is ludicrous especially near the collapse of Qing

"Due to a odd twist in politics, China controls most of the water in Asia"... do TLDR have data to back it up? I mean the "due to politics" part.
They said earlier in the episode that Tibet was annexed by China
@@0oShwavyo0Tibet was part of China for the entirety of the Qing Dynasty. It was “annexed” after Tibet temporarily gained independence for like two years.
@@Western_Decline bro is really pressed about Tibetan independence
@@Western_Decline Tibet also had its own kingdom / empire for the better part of five centuries in the 1st milennium too. Moreover, independent Tibet existed for 39 years (1912 to 1951), not 2 as you claimed. Simply put, Tibet was almost never properly a part of China. Of course, Mao wanted control over the waters in the region, and illegally annexed Tibet in 1951, proceeding with forced Sinicisation subsequently. That is also why China wants their puppet as the next Dalai Lama, since that would allow them to legitimise their annexation.
Illegal Occupation of a foreign country sounds more realistic and accurate than "odd twist of politics"
did you even read the hydrological survey report? or your take this information from reddit
if a river starts from China, it doesn't mean all water is coming from China
a river flow is contorted by small steam coming from mountain and merge into a single river,
only 20% of those water in those come from Chinese territory and mountain
also ganga doesn't start from china
agreed this was poorly done. see when a country does well especially india, it prolly rubs a brit or englishman/european seeing them try and solve this on their own or something instead of begging for help or something they wanna see. but anyways when a country is up the media will try and tear u down and when ur down that when media will try and make u sound better than u rlly are. If theres anything that ive learned LOL not that it counts for a lot.

Excellent channel! One of the key factors to consider is the very positive India - Tibet relationship. In the event of a military conflict, I can't imagine native Tibetans aiding the PLA soldiers in any capacity.
50% of Tibet is Han Chinese now
It was positive between India and the Tibetan theocratic ruling caste who enslaved and abused the rest of the population. The average Tibetan probably doesn't mind whether they're under the CPC or the Dalai Lama since there's pros and cons to both
@@MayankTrivedi2 Thanks to the invasion. It's sad tho
I have heard many narratives of this.
1. PLA find out difficult to recruit tibetans
2. PLA recruiting tibetans without issue.
3. PLA recruiting tibetans but don't trust them.
4. PLA not actively recruiting tibetans
5. PLA forcibly recruiting tibetans
Not exactly what to believe anymore.
You're mistaken to think Tibet can ever be a battlefield. Tibetan highlands are called the Ceiling of the world. It is the physical wall that separated Chinese and Indian civilization for thousands of years! But in a modern conflict highlands yield a significant artillery advantage. In plain terms, China can bombard Indian military and cities with little to no trouble. India can't fight a uphill battle in the tallest mountains of the world. Also millions of Chinese tanks & soldiers will descend upon India. Turning India into battleground.
If you're only counting on the Tibetans to save yourselves you're doomed already!!
China isn't even supposed to have Tibet.

It is.
India isn't suppose to be independent
In high school early 2000s. I wondered about fresh water disputes. 20 years later, here we are.
Indians dying over water😢
tajikistan got switched with Kyrgyzstan on the map
imagine getting the news that your country could go on war from a foreign media, i was terrified of the thumbnail
They made a video on this 2 year's back as well nothing will happen Relax.
Even bharmaputra's 90% water in non dry season comes from tributaries in india. While for two months glacier fed it. India too is building dam to tackle this 2 months gap so dependency on China can be countered.
TLDR news tends to over speculate
it's fine at the end he said it's very unlikely
this isnt a very good video on there part. hasty and no research.
As an Indian let me give some insights which Western people need
1- Only 6% of water of Bhramputra comes from China
2- Bhramputra do not lack water. I has double the volume of Ganges when it reaches Bengal. North Eastern States get a lot of floods and do not host large populus or Agriculture hub. Most water anyhow goes to down stream Bangladesh
3- Main Problem we have is that China refuses to share its Hydrological data with us and can cause Flooding downstream. Main issue is not water being reduced but being UNCERTAIN
4- No country in the region wants to militarily escalate over this issue. And that SUPER DAM is stupid and impossible to build in Earthquake prone region
5- They(China) is not so powerful as is made to believe. Russian reports suggest atleast 40 Chinese troops were lost in Galwan Valley Clash over 20 Indian troops.
6- If ever water related issues were to be made a point of military confrontation. Multiple downstream Nations have leverage over China's trade routes like India and Thailand. This will not go well for China
7- Water consumption in China may fell considering its birth rate, if they don't use water domestically then they will have to release water downstream as Nature cannot be stopped like that
Regardless Indians don't want west to intervene in this issue as of now as it will worse situation for all parties in the region
Just like what happened in 1962?

Dude, most of Brahmaputra is in India, in the state of Assam. The Bangladeshis get a tiny portion of it and they call it by another name.
Not great when your prosperity relies on the goodwill of your neighbors.
Especially when that neighbor is China
india is bumblefacked
After globilisation, almost every country relies on the goodwill of others.
I know right, someone should tell europe to stop relying on the american military for defence
Whether it's water, food, energy or production there aren't many countries that do all of this themselves - China, I think, is something of an exception to this being an exporter of all but oil (and is producing a lot of it's own energy through renewable sources). It's certainly a tactic that means the rest of the world can't afford to stand up to you.
Being dependent for water on the good will of a authoritarian dictatorship is not an easy position to be in.
One mistake - the Ganges Do Not originate in Tibet, its source lies well within India.

Fact : India is a water surplus country but India's biggest problem is water storage and proper distribution of water through canel in every state . On the other hand China's biggest tension is water that because china occupied the independent country Tibet and want to capture Arunachal pradesh

The very first line is wrong.
You said, _Due to an odd twist in politics, China controls most of the water in Asia._
It wasn't "an odd twist of politics", China invaded and conquered Tibet so that they would have control of the sources of the rivers.
Mao knew exactly what he was doing. He knew that if Tibet remained independent, it would have control over China's water supply, and he knew that if he conquered Tibet, China would have control over other countries' water supply.
And control the high ground rather than others
THAT IS SOOO BASED OF Mao. The CHinese people need to thank Mao for securing their future! #Respect

I heard part of the issue in India, is over some UPW (Ultra pure Water) sources. These sources are important because of the place they place in the manufacturing of microchips.
This was one major impetus driving conquest of the what is now known as the Tibet Autonomous Region. Many forget the fact these countries have been sparring on a REGULAR basis for nearly four years now in the Himalayas and nobody recalls the 1962 conflict between the two... Unlike many other comments, I don't care about mapping inaccuracies as they are obviously sourced materials and boundaries shift and that is how it goes. I think the major thing we fail to realize is a resource as precious as water makes gold look like dust... think about what an OASIS is. Water is CRITICAL and the PRC does have substantial control over multiple MACRO WATERSHEDS in the region and this is part of the conflict. Not all, of course. Good video
The way TLDR is slowly slicing indian territory from its map, some point it will show entire northeast snd northen india as disputed territory in future
It's showing India's territorial disputes with the PRC. It's not 'slicing territory away'.
Modi isn't going to give you a high five for your keyboard activism for India.

Correction. Ganges donot originate in Tibet but in india . It's close to border but it's originating glacier is entirely in india.
Also majority of water in indus and Brahmaputra actually originate in india.
Himalayas is so high that it effectively block monsoon winds into Tibet.
That's why Tibet is so dry . Almost like a high altitude desert

You know it’s extremely interesting that both China and Russia have been more and more aggressive and authoritarian under Xi and Putin. For decades China has been a fine participant on the world stage working with west and east and now Xi and Putin both seem very antagonistic towards the west. It’s almost as if they care more about their own interests, power and legacy vs the needs of the people in the country they claim to represent. Despite the fact previous leaders discussed Taiwan it was always “status quo” but, with Xi it’s “everything or nothing” just like Putin seems odd to me

Why would they be included??
@TLDR News Global: What is your criterion for some regions to be classified as disputed? CCP's claim on Arunachal Pradesh is not backed by any other nations, certainly not any Western nations, which currently is the defacto arbitrator of what is disputed and what is not. Yet, you show Arunachal Pradesh as disputed. Does it mean that even if a single nation disputes the territorial possession of any region of another country, you will be labeling that as disputed? Consensus of the other nations is unimportant? The CCP has disputes with more countries than they border, do all these countries lose their territory in your maps then? I think you should use a little bit of common sense when you show these provocative maps. CCP disputes everything that they can reach by their navy or army, and as their military might increase, this list of so-called disputed territories is only going to increase. You are simply conceding to the CCP's bullying. Note that I deliberately did not use the word China, because it is the CCP that is calling the shot, the people of China are peaceful, and I admire them and their civilization.
Remember people that china also said they won't ever build military at the south china sea.
Remember, the US said it wouldn’t expand NATO

First get your map correct. The whole J&K is shown here disputed, which is not. Check ground reality from locals, just like a real journalist instead of getting your news from other channels and repeating it.

A conflict over water there, that was the plot of one of the mission impossible movies. maybe they predicted the future
Yes some major rivers in India originates from china but 80 % of water collection comes from Indian mountains ,,we only need to build some mega dams .((One of the major reasons why China claims Indian land .))
可憐的中國
I live in China. Everything is miserable here, but no one dares to complain.
Our *air, rivers, and soil* are contaminated with poisonous chemicals. My city experiences *record floods year after year.* This is the result of decades of environmental and infrastructure negligence.
Seriously if there is next life, I wish to be born in any other country, except China.
I find it interesting that my former landlord renounced his Australian citizenship and moved back to China, then.
Hmm,repeated copy and paste comments.
I guess u live in 河南😂
@@anonmouse15Because of the uneven development in China and the wide gap between the rich and the poor, your landlord probably comes from some big cities in China or has lots of money.(not every city or province is as miserable as the blogger said😂
@@wusiyi541 Perhaps. What can you tell me of Shanghai?
I think it’s inevitable these two go to war but not until China has a go at Taiwan and India and Pakistan have a go

Typical western youtuber showing wrong maps of india and expect India to support them against russia😂😂
Yeah, because India's geopolitics depend on a random YT channel...
I don’t care, India can support Russia all it wants, as long as you people help us fight Chinese colonisation and communist slavery we are tight. And this is coming from a Polish person, trust me I have never heard a Polish politician complain about indias low key reliance on Russia, we understand you need to grow.

@@a_kazakis pretty insane how far Hindu nationalism will go to claiming a UA-cam video should determine an entire countries geopolitical position lmao.

If you’re going to show Kashmir, ladhak, and Arunachal Pradesh as disputed territories, then show Hong Kong, Tibet, etc, as disputed because they clearly don't belong to China 🤷♂️. Or at least show the internationally accepted borders. Just because China claims Arunachal Pradesh, it does not mean anything.
Isn't most of the flooding,especially in Cambodia due more to over buildings on river banks and not so-called climate change 🤨
Your maps of india is enough reason for india to go against you😂
Tf is your profile picture?? You weirdo
Is not as much as could but rather, will.
Rivers that originate in Tibet get most of their water along the way through tributaries. In other words, irrespective of the origin, the primary catchment areas of those rivers are NOT within Tibet. Moreover, those rivers flow DOWN from the Himalayas into the Indian subcontinent for a reason. CCP can't fight gravity either.
Annex by china in 1951? China had control over Tibet longer than U.S was a country FYI.
"Tibet came under the control of the Qing dynasty of China in 1720"

I thought you guys did some real research, the sources of Ganges and Yamuna aren't in Tibet, please look it up
And just like the other poles....it's melting.
China laid claims on these territories using two sources: Tang and Yuan. The Tang managed to conquer Central Asia and parts of modern Afghanistan and Kashmir for over a century (650s-760s). The Yuan meanwhile annexed Tibet and parts of modern Himalaya terrain to interior China for the first time. Given this aspect, it is worth worrying that China will justify their territorial claims of previous dynastic empires to achieve their aims over India.
"Goodwill of the CCP" is the funniest geopolitics joke I've ever heard since "de-Nazify Ukraine"😂
putting the disputed areas between India and China on the map is the actual meta for video stimulation. like +200% comments bonus or smn
india would fold fast af if they dont do shit 😂
Yet another forum where China seemingly trumps India. Its quite interesti mng how much foresight Chinese leaders have had, to create arenas that give China such increased leverage over their neighbours and rivals.
Why is taiwan is not part of Chinese map and why indian arunachal is disputed 😂 come on brit be decisive
Thank you for your video! As a person from China I have not yet realized that we can even control the water to limit and contain the growth of the India. But now I learned it from your video and I will share it with more Chinese friends to think about it. It is a excellent idea since the border invasion issues and the aggressive foreign policy from the India against China, we Chinese cannot always be silent to those invasions from India, and our CPC government really need to adopt a smarter and more effective method (based on your video) to overwhelmingly stop industries in nationalism India. 💪
I cant even look at this video because of that map of India. Why do you have to gray it out. It belongs to India not anybody else.
Damn China’s built a lot of dam’s.

China is declining.
India 🇮🇳 is projected to become a developed nation in 25 years.
- At the same time, third-world China will become a second North Korea.
Shut up bot. India will reach development level of may be Spain or Greece in next 25 years. It is not called developed. Both countries are sh#thole
India is a joke. 20 years ago China GDP per capita was about two times as big as India. Now it's more like 4 times higher. If China is "declining" then India is hopeless. And I'm not a fan of China policies myself. While China has developed somewhat, India is one of these forever "developing", "superpower next decade" countries.
@@Zeroksas As of 2024, India's Median age is only 28 years while China's Median age is about 38 years. An average Chinese is 10 years older than the average Indian. This explains why China's economy is way ahead of India. But it also explains why currently China is stagnating while India is the fastest growing major economy.
"India is hopeless" Well i disagree India is one of the few major countries which has shown real growth in the 21st century. India was the 17th biggest economy in 1991 (End of Cold War) and next year it will be the 3rd biggest economy
@@indiafirst3676India is unlikely to be as big as China. It'll probably reach the same size as Japan and then stall due to an ageing population.

Conquering Tibet was the smartest thing the modern Chinese ever did.
We Kashmiris DO NOT consider ourselves to be Indians. Glad you fixed that
