None from India and surprisingly none from China. Both these countries have established 1000s of unis in last 50 years. Seems like we need to start working hard.

1000s of years of bla bla is just a myth in modern terms. "University" is a new concept. All of those old institutions can't be regarded as Universities as we have no credible record of what they really taught,hence the modern term of unis doesn't apply. Btw you need to work on your geography,there are two Chinese universities there based in Hong Kong.

HK is not China...Its per capita is $50000 to China's $9000

On its own HK is developed world.

For HK, the credit should go to British.

1000 universities in last 50 years? Got your facts straight. Most top universities in China are about 100 years old, and newer ones were established in 1950s after PRC establishment. I cannot remember any noteworthy university in China that was established in last 50 years.

Too bad, HK is now part of China administratively recognized by all international bodies. Per your logic, Shanghai is not China, on its own, Shanghai is a developed world, Beijing is not China, on its own Beijing is semi-developed world, etc, etc.

Not sure how Britain had anything to do with those universities since I don't know the history of those universities. I would leave those HK members to shed some light. If your reasoning was based on HK's colonial past, I guess any achievement in India should be credited to British. /rolleyes.

Britain ruled India for 200 years, why is it not like Hong Kong or Singapore?

Because we are Chinese and you are Indians.

Take a look at Shanghai, which has now surpassed Hong Kong in terms of economy.

I have extensive experience in Hong Kong (where I was born), Singapore and Shanghai. The most advanced place for me out of these three is Shanghai. My jaw dropped when I first caught a glimpse of Pudong district, I've never been that impressed by any city I have ever seen.

Let us compare HK to Shanghai: Per capita of Shanghai is $12000 to HK's $36000. Credit rating of Shanghai is A+ to HK's AAA. Where is the comparison?

If Shanghai is one of the financial hub in Asia it is because of British. Nobody in the business community take HK as a part of China. We call HK as HK and not China. No wonder China has maintained two forms of governance, two set of rules and two set of currencies for HK and China.

If you are a mainlander try settle in HK then see whether you are allowed. Mainlanders are given special passes (similar to visas) to enter HK

I can freely settle in Delhi, and nobody will question me

It doesn't matter for us that what you call HK and China, the important thing is that PLA is deploied in HK, PRC control HK, Yes HK government has high degree of autonomy, and yes person from mainlander entering into Hk need special passes, but it can't change the fact HK is part of China..

BTW, any chinese don't need special passes can go to and settle in Beijing freely, and China is much bigger than india, we can go to more place than indian without passes!!!

As an Indian I get business visa on arrival in HK, for you unless you have the 'permit' you cannot even think of entering HK.

Per capita? You'd better check the per capita of Ordos City of Inner Mongolia of China before you make your conclusion. 14 cities in China have more GDP per capita than Shanghai ( Except Hongkong and Macau). According to your way of comparison, Ordos City must be far ahead of Shanghai.

Credit rating? What kind? From which country? Moody's, S&P, Dagong, Fitch, JCR? Credit rating agencies are almost all US-based. China-based Dagong Agency lists Mainland and Hongkong as both AAA grade.

"Nobody" in the business community? What about businessmen form Mainland and Hongkong? Seems that you can represent anyone. If your daddy Britain is soooo great, why its territory shrinks to a shape like a worm today and kneeled to China by giving HongKong back to us? Tell me why your colonial daddies wet their pants when facing China.

What ever you say, HongKong is Chinese territory, and is thriving more than ever under China's rule. China is just smart enough to allow two sets of systems, prospering both sides. And for the most part, PLA garrion is in HongKong, and they don't need any VISA that you mentioned to enter OUR territory.

You logic is very ridiculous, Visa is not "permit"? Yes, we also need permit(Visa), but in there, we can speak Chinese, we can use RMB without barrier, and I am in Shenzhen, I can go to HK in daytime, and back to Shenzhen tonight, or choose live there several days, don't need passager ticket, In there, I feel very well, because they are all chinese, they are my compatriot, but you, as a foreigner!!

You indian logic are very ridicuous, it this the reason that you can't choose the right way for country development even being independent from Braitain after 60 years?
