Exactly.China is no US.China is a four trillion dollar economy compared too the 15 trillion dollar economy that US has.
Yah and why should China support India's bid for permanent U.N. seat ?
India is around 1.16
$1.367 trill. (nominal)
$3.87 (PPP)
So i was not sure which to post!
read the wiki article on this guy which portrays a positive picture of him. Why Chinese dont like him?
In addition to other reasons, he wants China to subect to western colonial rule for 300 or more years.
Do you like you to be subject to colonial rules for 300 years?
But I think Chinese government is silly: 1) there is no need to make a big fuss of it; 2) it is foolish to tell other government what to do what not to do.
Chinese Foreign Ministry officials recently told Indian Ambassador to China S. Jaishankar that China wanted India to boycott the ceremony. Chinese officials have met with diplomats from almost every country in recent weeks, conveying the same message. Among those who have said they will stay away are Russia and Pakistan.
^^^^^ i think india should not attend this meeting. visit of chineese premier wen jiabao is likely to herald a new era of peace and partnership between two countries. i am sure our chineese friends would much appreciate this gesture from our side. after all diplomacy is a policy of give and take.
Furthermore, If China Really wants downplay this Nobel award, it could have simply not made an issue about it (I meant the indirect threats and coercions) and kept a low profile. However, due to its heavy handed(imho) actions...it comes off as a bully who is threatened by the Nobel prize. If China simply ignores the award, and makes no mention of it....this entire thing would have blown off within a couple of weeks. Media loves conflict and "exciting" news...and China seems to be playing right into the hands of the media outlets who; now would blow this Nobel event to epic proportions...something China should/would like to avoid. Better yet, it could even allow the dissenters wife to receive the award. Continuing this line of reaction would result in China being compared to....and already is(in some news reports)with similar fracas surrounding the Nobel winners like Carl von Ossietzky(under Nazi Germany), Andrei Sakharov ,Lech Walesa (Under USSR) and Aung San Suu Kyi(Under Myanmarr junta).
In conclusion, India should attend the function and China should not make a huge issue out of it cos it would definitely be a PR as well as political disaster. There's more than one way to skin a cat and China should keep that in mind rather than resort to these rather crude measured which would definitely backfire.
Thank for the advice but no thanks. You make the mistake of thinking China does what it does here for international approval. It doesn't, it's acting out the play for domestic perception. All the finger wagging abroad is not going to be a danger to China but a lack of domestic stability is.
