Why Didn't Burma's Neighbors Support The Saffron Revolution?

Christopher Hitchens has an article on Slate arguing that the Chinese government is to blame for the atrocities that occured in Burma over the weekend. He writes that most of the world's most brutal regimes are being supported in one way or another by Beijing (see North Korea and the Sudan); while I agree with this statement, I find it hard to be surprised that a government that does not respect the human rights of its own people would not protect the human rights of another country's people.

This brings me to my point: Where is India?

India is the world's largest liberal democracy, and shares a border with Burma. Why did they not step in and help the people of Burma who clearly wanted political change prior to the massacre of thousands of protesting monks? In short, the Indian government was more concerned with security and energy resources flowing from the Burmese regime. This is shameful.
