I have never used this phone myself. But Jiayu is a decent company (Started in Shenzhen but now in Shanxi) that have their own research group etc. So it is definitely not a brand that are going to disappear in any time soon. The company is known for offering decent hardware with reasonable...
Thanks. I ask because I am wondering whether these factories are in Gujarat. Personally I think Modi's industrial policy is the right one for India so I am thinking whether these plants are results of the policy.
I read yesterday that the new Micromax model were sold out in a few minutes. Where's that made? Is that the same factory that make these Samsung phones?
This is not possible now. It could be more believable in 1990's during the "Bitter March" time. There're posts by Chinese who works in NK in Baidu's NK bar from time to time, which gives a much more reasonable picture of current NK. Recent economic reform did improve common people's life and...
The armies are mostly deployed in China's econmic centers and population centers. That's the reason you don't see a lot of armies in the western region. In addition, China is more worrying about attackes from the sea since that's where it got attached in 19 and 20's century. This is not exactly...
42% living under $2 got to be a joke. Even in one of the poorest province, Guizhou, a contruction worker got 3000-4000 Yuan a month ($500 - $660). The person who compiled those number in above site must've lived in 1980s:

Why is direct profitability such a big deal. If we consider profitability, then we should not spend anything on military. A faster railway will have huge impacts on economy so there's an overall profitability, even if railway department doesn't get enough ticket sales to cover the cost. Not to...
This is good news. It is one of the silliest policies to export rare earth metals in such scale with little gain but huge environmental cost. There's a reason why US stopped digging it.
It depends, in some cities Railway station are shared. But a lot of these HSR are on complete separate areas, some even in remote areas (HSR needs more land areas), so new stations are built.
In general the traditional lines are not impacted because they are a lot cheaper so more suitable...
It is not visa-free but I think it is pretty easy to get them. Citizens from several border cities can enter the other side with just ID card so a lot of people live on one side and work on the other side.
The new BBC documentary broadcasted in September this year. It is the same two presenter Anita Rani and Justin Rowlatt who presented "India on four wheels" last year. The format is very similar as well, with the girl in a better car driving through richer areas and the poor guy in a shabby car...
