China: The world's cleverest country?

[shuttler]

ONE OF THE MOST HARD-WORKINGS, WITH PASSION AND HOPE

Absolutely!

 

[Martian2]

By one measure, I think it is fair to say that "China is the world's cleverest country."

No other populous country in the history of the world has grown as fast (e.g. 10% economic growth for 30 years) and industrialized as quickly as China (e.g. you try sending a spaceman into orbit in 2003 while a developing country or building a 3.3-megaton thermonuclear bomb in 1967 with stone-age technology).

Hence, we can only conclude Chinese are among the world's cleverest people.

Yeah, no one is born as the cleverest, the determination and the hard work mostly come into play.

^ you probably overlook the series of exams that the professor has already gone thru before he takes up an academic position buddy. The publications / inventions are criteria for promotions. I cannot find any professor who can ascend to his/her position without going thru the path of successful exams. And mind you publications are a form of examinations themselves because the papers have to go through review panel before they are published. So are successful filing of patents. Of course the later kind of recognitions are not conducted in the same confines of questions and answers, invigilators and all that jazz.

that is true but the exams are only a minimum requirement, you have to more than the exams. for some professions you only need the exam.

Developing a manned space program 50 years after other developed counties with the added advantage of not having to be bothered with being answerable to its masses, is clever for you. How clever being still a 3rd world dump while being the second highest GDP.

China has indisputable accomplishments under its belt. Can't say the same for you Indians.

By the way, China's GDP per capita is almost US $6,000 this year. China is classified as an upper middle-income country.

When you refer to "a third world dump," you must be thinking about India's $1,400 per-capita GDP. However, your rupee has fallen to record lows at 53.44 rupees to one US dollar. Hence, your actual Indian per capita GDP is closer to $1,000 US dollars.

The average Chinese is about five times richer than you pathetic Indians.

So you can image how difficult for China and how amazing China did

The US was also behind Europe for decades 100 years ago. Since history has not ended yet, it does not matter when you start to catch up as long as you are catching up. And by your silly logic what x-world dump is India then?

Is that Chinese logic. Do it half century later and with stolen technology and claim our cleverness

Could you also address my answer in regard to your logic?

Of course it matters if you use a wheel 50 years later than developed counties. While never having to be answerable to its people. India is 3rd world country too, but it ain't the 2 nd highest GDP .

They are clever indeed, how otherwise you can make the leader of Muslim umhha believe they are their best friend and at the same time does not allow Muslims to practice religion freely. That is indeed clever.

How was Europe answerable to its people during industrialisation? How was the US answerable during industrialisation when till the 1920s more than half the population were not allowed to vote and further west the indigenous people were slaughtered like wild animals and till the 1960s blacks were voiceless? The US also used the "wheel" decades later than most European countries not to speak of India.

You know, if you want to impress in a debate, you need to think at least of the next ten steps or you might end up as an idiot who spews venoms of envy.

Looking like an idiot is justifying why it took 50 years to create technologies easily done by developed countries with idiotic examples of industrialization and human rights violation. Blacks may have had no rights but the country was answerable to it populace

Next time you may not want to debate a topic where it shows you can take Chinese and plop him in any country yet he thinks he is clever proclaiming they are the cleverest. How freaking clever are you when you own govt treats you like idiots who are not capable of reading diverse opinions, thoughts and it needs to censor such from its populous? Parents keep certain topics away from kids because they are too immature not because they are cleverest ! Mr. I am blogger on the net hence I claim to be a journalist how very clever of you...

Not sure on your logic, but sure on your jealousy.
