Now compare that to the Supremo Commander in Chief, His Excellency and President for Life, the Exalted and Most Revered Robert Mugabe of Zimbabwe who just returned from China on his trip there to implore them to give him a loan of a few billion dollars to salvage Zimbabwe. They in turn made him sign a credit guarantee for all outstanding funds owed to China (US$700 million) and sent him back empty handed

Yeah yeah. My point being the reception of India as compared to Zimbabwe and the reason why any country should strive to remain a respected democracy rather than a tinpot dictatorship

This has nought to do with democracy my friend. Its simply about geopolitics and economy. Our economy is strong and will yield returns to Japanese businesses invested here coupled with the fact that it is in Japans interest to see a strong India.

These factors would have remained the same had we been a dictatorship as well.

Japanese investment is most valuable investment.

$33 bn investment is quite a large amount. India should make sure they use this investment wisely.

Japan has specifically said that they will not channel money via GoI to put where they please. Instead they will invest in the projects directly, so they can pick and choose what project they want to invest in.

@Aeronaut - Request a change in title. The current title is wrong, makes it sound like aid.
A better report by Economic times and Business Standard makes it clear it is infrastructural investment.

Could you please change the title to "Japan to invest over $33 billion in India over 5 years"
