COVID-19 is leaving India hungry in more ways than one

[Indos]

Hi, good question but regrettably I don't actually know but I think you can follow the tweets of two progressive Kashmiris to know the answer : the former student leader Shehla Rashid ( she tweets here ) and the Communist Party of India ( Marxist ) leader M.Y.Tarigami ( he tweets here ).

OK thanks for the information.

That was the exact thing I wanted to say after reading the OP. India is the second-largest importer of weapons and other military systems. I wish that the same way that the Indian Establishment pampers the military, the same pampering is done for the civilians.

Its not just weapons systems, what about that huge statue of that depressed old man, or the millions wasted in failed "strategic" projects like the Kabul air corridor. Everytime someone questions the cost effectiveness of such things, some Indian harps back claiming they are rich and have billions to waste.

Recently when IK offered to help India implement a wealth distribution scheme to help those affected by job loss due to covid-19, the Indian govt mocked it claiming they are too wealthy for 'charity'.

Ah yes. The BJP government preferred Vallabhbhai Patel's statue instead of one of say the socialist revolutionary Shaheed Bhagat Singh.

But I think Bhagat Singh wouldn't have approved of spending of a vast 437 million dollars in building of this statue and would have said that the sum be set aside for building free high quality hospitals and the like.

or the millions wasted in failed "strategic" projects like the Kabul air corridor.

I didn't know about that.

Everytime someone questions the cost effectiveness of such things, some Indian harps back claiming they are rich and have billions to waste.

The businessman, Subrata Roy of the Sahara Group, spent 400 crore rupees ( 53 million dollars ) on the common wedding of his two sons. Mukesh Ambani has a 27-storey house for a single family of four or five in a city ( Bombay / Mumbai ) which has the largest slum in Asia.

Yeah, many Indians don't find such things ridiculous but such disparities are to be found in Pakistan too.

Recently when IK offered to help India implement a wealth distribution scheme to help those affected by job loss due to covid-19, the Indian govt mocked it claiming they are too wealthy for 'charity'.

I think IK offered the design of the scheme and indeed it was not good of the Indian Establishment to refuse it.

Western media like to make lies to harm Chinese people. I have never heard any Chinese people eat bats. But Indians on the other hand do eat bats, and even rats. But I won't post it here because I don't want to add charcoal to the fire.
This Indian boy need to control his tits. He's getting aroused for no reason.

Ok Bat Soupe Drinker. Acknowledged.

BTW do you guys use Ginger and Turmeric in Bat Soupe?

You should know very well, I don't eat bats or bat soup.
Maybe you can tell me more about you eating RATS.
RAT Delicacy in India, rich in protein for the hungry in India.

I don't see a problem if Indians eat rats, bats or whatever. India is 1/3 the size of China with same population and low agriculture production. Their government is wasting money buying foreign weapons and "containing" China.
The poor indian people need to eat whatever they can find in order to survive.
Given the state of India, I cannot blame the people in this case.

China has more people than India yet everyone is well fed and very child is being well taken care.
Blame China for not having that beautiful democracy.

For a country that has the 2nd highest GDP, this below is a very poor showing. You need to stop squandering money to scam other countries and spend it on your population's well being.

Li Keqiang says 600 Million Chinese Citizens Earn Monthly Incomes of Just USD$140

That's disposable income, in US the amount could be negative.

He says Earn income of $140 and not disposable income.

Quote "
Premier Li Keqiang has highlighted the huge number of Chinese citizens who continue to subsist on low incomes despite China’s economic transformation since the launch of reform and liberalisation.

At the close of China’s 2020 Two Sessions congressional meeting on 28 May Li said at a press conference that “600 million people have monthly incomes of just 1000 yuan” (approx. USD$140.6). "

"The data from the National Bureau of Statistics (NBS) indicates that China's per capita disposable income was 30,733 yuan per year, or 2,561 yuan per month.Jun 3, 2020"

The NBS data is caught being fake by your Premier's statement.

Your Premier contradicted your NBS when he said this. QUOTE-

Chinese media seized upon Li’s remarks, given that data from the National Bureau of Statistics (NBS) indicates that China’s per capita disposable income was 30,733 yuan per year, or 2,561 yuan per month.

Your Premier states Monthly income is 140 dollars.

Monthly income is not the same as disposable income. Your spin and propaganda can only work on the Chinese.
