Another example is China’s energy cooperation with India, which, like China, is a large energy consumer. Though both are energy competitors, China and India have started to cooperate in exploiting oil in Kazakhstan, jointly entering into the Sudan oil exploitation project, thus becoming business partners. They have also begun to work together in Iran. In future, China and India should work hand in hand, taking part in international energy exploitation and distribution, diversifying risks, so as to gain access to a supply of energy larger than that currently available.
