My comment:
(a) Most reports from Western media outlets does not use "strategic partnership." Rather, their focus is on oil exploration. For example:
India, Vietnam Sign Energy Accord. Associated Press, Oct 12, 2011.
(b) Nonetheless, the official organ of India does talk about strategic partnership.
India, Vietnam strategic partnership to deepen: Vietnam Prez. All India Radio. Oct 12, 2011
("Vietnam has sought to further strengthen its strategic partnership with India in various sectors. Talking to newsmen in New Delhi this morning, the visiting Vietnam President Truong Tan Sang said that his visit will deepen the existing economic co-operation between the two traditional friends")
