no excitement just plain analysis if you bring up emotional content into the picture. What you said if were reasonable can be said the same to India vs China.
either this PMI is biased or you have to admit PMI figures does not translate to high economic output. this HSBC PMI for China has been constantly around 48 in the first half of 2012 yet it generate much better economic performance than it to India(54 on average). the same applies to the longer period over 2007 to 2012.
Gross domestic growth for China by now can be predicted around 8 pct for Jan-Jun 2012, India's number could be only 5 pct with decelerating trend.
there's nothing to be happy about this rather shady PMI number.
Analysis you say?! But it doesn't take a genius to figure out the deep seated prejudice, bias, insecurities and most importantly, emasculation, that motivates such rantings. And lets not call it analysis, for the sake of the word.
Next, I'll be the first to concede that china is head and shoulders above India. Hence, having figured out the formula for success the Chinese have the goods to back their talk. On the contrary, quite unlike your chrished and far superior ally, Pakistan has provided a development model which throws light on what NOT to do. And therefore, I was simply wondering how a nation bordering failure could lend unsolicited advice to another, which (economically) is doing a better job of keeping it together.
Next, your observation, if anything, only goes to show the insuffiency of indicators such as the PMI and IIP data. It doesn't in any way refute my argument that there is little credibility to claims of India falling, from a nation that lacks competence, is replete with failures and massages hurt pride by hoping to revel in the glory of its allies.
