Can India lead Asia?

[NeutralCitizen]

You are barking up the wrong tree ! Who said we want to be superpower ! Hell, We are not even leaders of S. Asia !

Which country looks up to India other then India ?

Well India does have powerful Influence in Bangladesh I guess that could count Right ???

To be a superpower you need Economic, Military, Cultural and Ideological influences does India have any of that ?

One correction ! We do have cultural and ideological influences

Yes Cultural I can see that, Ideological who follows India ideology ? During the Cold war the Communist Nations Looked up the the USSR as leader others looked at the USA as leader, who looks up to India ? Bangladesh ? fair enough.

No. We have no influence at all

It really does not make a difference.

If a country looks up to any country, it is for freebies and pan handling.

We rather be spared this 'adulation'!

Not a whole lot really. Not even China.

But yes, being sandwiched between two potential future super powers can be a bit problematic.

I sense a bit of jealousy in your posts,maybe due to the power/importance shift in the world,maybe you should accept the reality and move forward.

I'd actually prefer India to be the World Policeman, can't wait to see the incredible India battling the Axis of Evil and bringing Democracy to the world.
