just 'coz you think that the comparision is rediculous doesn't make the whole argument of discussion rediculous . and the world is not about what chinese think about it rather its the other way around what the world think about china and india.. if you dont like somebody comparing INDIA and CHINA you simply dont have to respond.
seems just like SOME OF THE INDIANS you too endure that feeling of ecstacy when china is mentioned for RESEARCH on japanese websites .. media organizations have to be research organizations to get the credibility!!!!... is that the chinese way ?? .. btw just try and get out of that firewall your government has put on the search engines .. may be that would act as an eye opener.
i am sure you have (or have you .....???) gone through some of the leading indian dailies and some of the editorials which regularly publish not on the front pages but you gtta flip some pages .. even when you are reading on the net ... talkin about education, the world ( not sure about the chinese ) believes that it is the second largest english speaking nation in the world.. has around 18 languages in which the education is imparted .. sadly chinese lang is not one of them.. does that make them uneducated????..
seriously i dind't know that india gtta study bullet trains to get to know the enemy .. my my.....is ramming the train part of larger chinese strategy?????
mate, in this world every nation is a competitor to other... in manufacturing it is japanese and chinese, in software and outsourcing it is israel and india .. and yea the world doesn't end with these four countries i just mentioned.. there are other competitiors in other fields aswell. sadly we dont have the advantage of disciplining our labour force with china like wage standards..
As i said on the other thread .. china and india have different models of economy.. india is more western and democratic and china is different.
..... trust me happenings all around the world , whether in a small or a large nation .., affects all of us .. we are all intertwined
