Should China ban investments in India?

[kankan326]

It's the same coin, just more subtlety. Without closing an eye by the Chinese government, you think actions like smashing cars and brainwashing of kids can be tolerated? In the eyes of foreigners it's the same, especially for Japan and South Korea.

No. Totally different. Chinese government never officially limited investments from any country. Banning American websites or apps is more for security concerns. Since you are ethnic Chinese you probably know how much anti-China information delivered in google, facebook, twitter every day.

Chinese nationalism is very mild, and today it is very rational and reasonable, but is subjected to vilification by various countries or individuals that have ill-intention.

Some people always bring up things of the past and using quite extremely cases to make China people look ugly and stupid.

I'm not talking about Apps, but extreme boycott measures which involve violence in a minority and the majority being held hostage by nationalistic rhetoric. If you try to talk sense, you're deemed as a 'traitor'. That's the more dangerous narrative in the larger atmosphere; being held hostage in the name of 'patriotism' and unable to speak up for what is right. It happened in China, and it's now happening in India too.

I'm a bit puzzled why there are extreme boycott measures towards Japan/SK, and not American companies. Placing THAAD in SK is an American move, yet you 'bully' SK? The only logical explanation is that the US is still a stronger power, and the Chinese government is careful about its economic relations with the US so they don't stoke boycotts of American products in the media.

Tik-Tok is a Chinese App btw, and they separated into Douyin and international Tik-Tok.

When Khrushchev wanted to deploy nuke in Cuba, US threatened to start nuclear war.

We should think what if China deploy China-THAAD in Cuba.

Lotte is neither a Korean company per se in certain POV. It is Japanese and LOTTE provisioned the land for THAAD deployment.

Oridnary people boycotting movement to a country can neither work nor last long. It's more like a guesture. Only when the boycott becomes a government policy, the boycott becomes real.

Why puzzled? In Japan case, US was not involved. In S.Korea case, Chinese could not boycott any American company because the American weapon supplier didn't have business in China.

Instead of S.Korea, Chinese government only punished Lotte. Which is already a self restraint.

Well, in India their people's sentiments is a large factor in the government's decision to boycott.

Like I said, the mainstream narrative is now toxic and it's very hard for sensible people to speak up for China or simply just speaking up for the long term interest of India. If Modi tries to speak up for China, he will be voted out in no time.

In this case, the Chinese government is indeed more sophisticated in managing long-term bilateral ties with India.

Who told you that? Republic TV?

why pakistanis are annoyed by a third rate tv anchor .very bad .

It is stupid to attribute the hostile media reporting to people sentiment or will of private entreprise.

The media of every countries are controlled by elites and it represents the collective cogitation of the leadership of country.

In India 100% of MSM are against China. It was the entire ruling class pysche who are starting a war.

While China has been showing restrain. And you exonerate India and blame China.

The people follow the leadership of their rulers.

That's because the US is still economically stronger. I remember a few years back Chinese citizens are doing the same boycott nonsense to Japan and South Korea, and the smashing of products. That's when I was pro-China but had a fundamental shift of views on China's ultra-nationalism and leverage on smaller neighboring countries, and the same nonsense is happening in India now.

It's because US doesn't have historical dispute or animosity with China. Your comparison is flawed and bias. China had issues with economically weaker countries too, but business and investment were never banned. Vietnam, Canada...etc.

Those were protest pictures against Japan over Diaoyu dispute, it cannot be compared with China-India border dispute.

1. There's a historical animosity against Japan over war crime in East Asia. Koreans too have strong animosity against Japan.

2. However, Chinese govt did not ban any Japanese businesses or investment.

3. Disputed areas with India were never historically India, not reflected on their map until 1930s. It's expansionist claim based on British imperialism. Only irrational people with tribal mentality would react the way India did.

This is an interactive movement between Indian government and Indian people. Modi is facing a very hard time because of his failures in economy and in covid-19 war. He has to resort to nationalism.

And I also believe banning Chinese apps is Indian government premeditated plan. You can immagine how Indian people would be against this ban in normal days. Apps are easy to be replaced by Indian domestic companies. When other Indian products are relatively competitive in market, Indian government will ban same Chinese products. That's why I believe Chinese companies should not invest in India.

Every single South Asian states hate India.

Why just Pakistanis? Even I don't like him. I don't know about the other Chinese. He's rude to the core to guests he invites. Very cocky and arrogant. He's not a professional, not one bit.
