Indians boycotting 'Made in China' wares for Beijing's support to Pak

[cirr]

Reread the post, again

Extracting Lithium is a hard & time consuming process, not unlike rare earths, both are in abundance in the US but also more expensive & environmentally unsafe to extract especially rare earths

Search google or baidu for Rare Earths Trade Dispute & then come back to me.

Lithium abundant in the US? Againt that's huge NEWS to me.

You might as well say that India is lithium rich, for the Indian Ocean is abundant in lithium.

No I can't & really that's not a sarcastic reply, in case you were wondering.

When your toddler child, he had no ability and ronaldo football game, isn't it?

Ok! Have to do now is to protect your child, let him healthy growth, give him plenty of nutrition, such as his adult life. He entered the society, the face of competition. Have the ability to protect themselves.

By the same token, trade protectionism. He in the history of the industrial countries, get the best.

A small start-up company, you will let him go to Google, Microsoft, Boeing competition?

This is a hyper nationalistic message which gets peddled quite often but unless alternatives at a reasonable price are made available, no substitution will happen. Also most imports from China are not something for which replacements are not available globally, but they will be much more expensive. Also its not like us importing from china means that we are dealing with Chinese firms, a lot of western world companies (check all Canadian and us solar companies) have manufacturing base in China. Frankly what we lack in our political class is the long term mind-set (baring the state of Gujrat ). Also we are more populist than efficient unlike the Chinese. For example subsides (both in terms of interest subvention and input cost subsidisation) are provided to the agriculture sector while making industry to more or less fend for itself (check the electricity costs for industry even for a couple of years back), despite the fact that the gdp contribution per unit of currency spent industry is way higher than agriculture. Thankfully due to increase in coal production in last couple of years (leading to low electricity costs) and low input costs (raw material as in due to metal price decreases globally), the cost base of manufacturing in India is declining. Hopefully the government focuses strongly on Make in India, with some things improving like competitiveness but some things still need improvement (like ease of doing business), to improving aspects where we lack and treat manufacturers the way we treat farmers. No country can become a manufacturing powerhouse by treating manufacturing at any level below farming.

Indians are normally very nationalistic nation, Government of India is trying to solve the land dispute with Chinese since the time of Independence and after that in 1962 war , we Indians have lost our holy lands and tried to regain our land specially Mansarovar lake by talks and already have hold 19 rounds of talks.

Lake Manasarovar situated about 2000 kms from Lhasa is world’s highest freshwater lake. Mount Kailash ParvatKnown as Lake Manas Sarovar in Sanskrit, The lake is located at the southern foot of Mount Kailash, stretching up to 55miles (88kms) in perimeter it goes 330 feet deep and about 120 sq mi of total area.

Lake Manasarovar was formed by Lord Brahma, who is the creator god. He found it to be an appropriate place for religious rituals. Hid 12 sons, who were also holy men performed rituals and austerities on the dry land at the site. And to give them a more appropriate place to earn value, Lord Brahma created a wonderful lake which today is known as - Lake Manasarovar. And as per Buddhist religion, theyrelate Manasarovar with Anotatta Lake. It is said that Lord Buddha was conceived at this very lake, as stated in the legends Lord Buddha's mother was brought on the lake by the gods and as she bathed in the sacred waters of Manasarovar her body was purified.

Yeah you got me

You still didn't explain why do we need China just to get Lithium batteries when the same lithium can be imported from Argentina, Australia, Chile to make Li-ion batteries? Surely there isn't a secret Chinese sauce added to it, is there

The batteries make up for 5~15% of the cost of most of these electronic gadgets so even if it were made by importing more expensive Li the price of wholly (India) made products would still be competitive in India.

So if you can stop rolling on the floor (ROFL) you could answer these points with substance.

India can do the same can it not? There is enough cheap labor here that most of our demands can be met domestically, wrt imported goods that can be viably produced over here by Indian companies.

Not really , Indians are similar like Arabs who are aware of their history.

Do you know what Xiaomi? He set up in 2010, is now the TOP 6 handset maker. Xiaomi in 5 years time to do this achievement. How did you think it?

1, copy plagiarize.
2, the low price marketing.

......

OK, Now the "Freedom 251" will replace Xiaomi... Because it is cheaper and better at copying...
The world is not so easy as you think, Sir. Do you want to trade protectionism. Have been unrealistic.

I'd like to see the world to be swamped by Freedom 251.

Is 250 or 251?? Maybe I remember wrong.

OK, Indians talk about high IQ, quality, technology and now boycotting.

It seems that Indians seriously have these kind of capabilities to beat their west counterparts.

They told that they are biggest democratic country and try hard to look down upon others. They proved themselves that China's socialism system is more superior.

I suggest that our netizens don't treat this kind of 'news' too seriously. The 'news' is sold to their own people and we don't have to buy it.

We should seriously support our brother country Pakistan to develop the economy to become an economic hub of south asia then India will concentrate more on their people and economy with more jealousy.

No, but it's hardly profitable & is being propped up by PE money. I didn't claim that everything made by China is bad, because it's not, however most of the high quality stuff is cheap because of state help &/or razor thin margins hence both are unsustainable.

Also the profits in the smartphone industry are hard to come by, as 99% of all profits are shared between Apple, Samsung & Huawei. The latter two manage it because Samsung makes virtually all of their components, while Huawei also make their own SoC. The point is to make money you need your own (unique) IP & this is why Huawei & ZTE are profitable. However most of the consumer electrical & electronic goods are low margin & not unique, so can very easily be made in India by Indian companies.

There will always be things that Indian, or Chinese, companies will never be able to make on their own like an x86 processor. However for the vast majority India can easily becoming a manufacturing hub for Indian consumption, though we still need to encourage domestic companies to take up such chores.
