If Pakistan is the 45th biggest economy, that means there are 44 countries with more economic clout than Pakistan. And I bet those countries are a lot more stable as well.
If Pakistan joins the G20 the whole organization would lose its credibility and become even more useless than it is now.
LOL it is always the Pakistanis who bring up the poverty issue to make India look bad. All I am doing is pointing out that Pakistan's poverty problem is as bad as India's. However, the difference is that the Indian economy is growing and living standards are being improved, while in Pakistan the...
What is your problem, I was praising China's relationships with other Asian countries and you accuse me of jealousy?
Paranoid Chinese-Japanese hybrid :disagree:
No, because I do not believe in either of those.
However, it is understandable that idiotic statements like those are the last refuge of the incompetent.
That is false. 65% of Pakistanis and 75% of Indians live under $2 a day, which 33% of Pakistanis and 25% of Indians living under their respective national poverty lines.
India has 8 times as many people as Pakistan (total), so its not surprising that it has twice as many people in poverty.
Seriously, worry about your own problems first. At least our economy is growing at an acceptable rate and advances in living standards are being made. That is more than...
Actually, the manufacturing sector in India is growing extremely fast, despite the hurdles presented by bureaucracy and poor infrastructure. Just last year, India's manufacturing output as a share of its GDP surpassed the agricultural share for the first time.
The main difference between...
With demographic power comes political power. This has been the supreme law of the land since prehistoric times.
Consider this: if every Indian worker in the Arab states went on strike, what would the consequences on the world economy be?
Also, I don't understand why Pakistanis make such a big deal about Indian poverty, when 65% of Pakistanis live under $2 a day.

Indian culture is thousands of years old and has persisted through far worse times than this. Go take your supremacist BS somewhere else.
I actually agree that Indians should, in general, adopt a more professional and disciplined way of going about things. A proper education is the best way...
Agreed. Sri Lanka can flirt with China all they want, no one in India cares.
But that doesn't explain sinophilia.
It is definitely not inconcievable. I too am very fond of China, especially Chinese girls and Chinese food. But the CCP regime....?
India as a nation is far too large and complex to generalize with videos like these. Anyone can depict only certain parts of a country to paint a negative image of it. But that usually does not match the reality of the situation, especially not in a land of paradigms like India.
But if it...
Masala war-mongering media and attention-hungry "defence experts" =/= average Indian
Yes, I would like to know why 'Sri Lankan' is such a sinophile. That is not something that you can answer so stop wasting my time.
Having a very large population naturally means that resources will be stretched, and that not everyone can be accounted for. But the fact is, many Indians are managing quite well despite the odds stacked against them. Go to the slums in Mumbai or any big city and you will see TVs, radios, and...
