This is referencing a hypothesis coined by Booz Allen Hamilton, an American military intelligence contractor. It hypothesized that China will try and secure its borders in the Indian Ocean with civilian infrastructure. This was in 2004 when China-Pakistan relations were improving, and was fearmongering that India would have it's maritime territories seized by China. Kind of moot now that India is in BRICS.
Booz Allen Hamilton also famously employed Edward Snowden at the time of the leaks. BAH were contractors for the NSA for the PRISM project. Also, in 2007, it was discovered their contract with the department of homeland security went from $2 million USD to $70 million USD, a 3500% increase, and BAH's parent companies made considerable donations to John McCain's presidential campaign (which I think is a conflict of interest when your subsidiary is a government contractor)
