  21. Fisher, Rose & Huttenback (1963) , p. 101: "Confusion as to the extent of the Chang Chenmo valley between the Lanak and Kongka passes continued to be a feature of Chinese cartography even after the Communists came to power.... the flexibility shown by official Chinese cartographers here and on other sections of the border makes mockery of China's oft-repeated claim that its concept of the border has a solid basis in history."

The thorough approach of the Indian side generally contrasted with an inconsistent and almost careless presentation by the Chinese officials.
