I have been on this forum 8 years, right from 2004. During all these years, so many debates have been finished between Indian contributors and the "panda drones". Of course, the Indian contributors won all the debates, without any exceptions. Among them, 2 big battles remembered me the mos...

Hmmm, milk is maybe the only commidity that the super consumer economy power of India consumes more than China.

It is interesting to hear people here worrying about the safety issue of Shanghai Metro, despite the fact that railways in Bombay are killing innocents on today more than the Shanghai Metro did during the past 10 years and combined.

I do think congestion a big advantage when you want to build an electricity supply grid. Just imagine the cost for trying to supply 2000 people who happen to live in 20+ villages sparsely distributing within a mountain area of 100 by 100 km area? It is the problem facing some Chinese provinces when ...

This is very typical an example of the economy bottleneck by poor infrastructure. Mr. Suraj in some sense is correct because the last 10 years development of India do share many with China during the 1990s, and until 2003 or 2004 when the country moved from a low income country to some lower-mid inc...

Cars in China in 2012 are almost (around 90%) all paid in cash and in full. :) It's not the size of the car. It's the availability (or lack) of consumer credit in China. Otherwise, China would have hit those car numbers at least 5 years earlier. Cars in China in 2003 were all paid in cash in full.

I don't really believe the PPP calculation. One of the reasons, by PPP calculation, Singapore and Hong Kong are above Japan while Taiwan and South Korea being very close. I have been living in Japan quite long and have traveling experience to the other areas too. Sir, you know them behind Japan the ...

Dear Amit, I 'd rather to suggest you finding another and more reliable data source.

Dear Suraj, you are giving some excellent comments. Thanks!

wrdos

Dear Amit, thank you so much for the greatest data I've ever met. So the average height of an Indian female is exactly same as the Indian male at, 165.3 cm? Sir, would you please to open your window to see the real world at least one glance, before using this splendid data? Wrods, Here's you average...

Mr. Suraj, they are not average Indian. You have carefully chosen an Indian example of "upper income families" , right? It looks like that the children from Indian "upper income families" are enjoying an improving nutrition condition during the past 30 years. Congratulations anyw...

Mr. Suraj, Thanks so much, your figure is telling a lot. India's per capita cereal consumption is China's 50 years ago and has not changed during the half century. Sir, I need not to travel the whole India to find the truth that millions of your fellow citizens are starving, at such a low level of f...

Even so, it is still too low in India. Sir, vegetables could not provide enough protein of good quality to the children. If they could not eat meat adequately, at least they need to consume more fishes, other sea foods, milk, and eggs. Except milk, all too low in India, i have to say. Even the cerea...

wrdos

Dear amit, you are using the wrong data. Chinese per capita meat consumption is about 1/2 of America, not 1/10. And one more correction of myself, Indian per capita meat consumption is 1/20 of China, rather than 1/10. As for car consumption, Sir, China's per capita GDP surpassed Thailand on 2011, th...

wrdos

Dear amit, consumption is correlated to per capita GDP just as rich people buy more than poor people. Sir, you really need to reprove it here? And this consists of any proof of your conclusion, "The Gap is very small in term of years for catching up". Especially when the truth is that the ...

Wrdos, Before jumping in to the debate, please read up what's been written already. The "strong domestic market" meme has been responded to, see my first post in the previous page. Nobody is/has denied that the Chinese domestic demand is far higher than that in India. However, the gap is ...

As for automobile export, I guess the bulk of the so-called Indian car export is in fact by Hyundai, right? China doesn't allow a 100% foreign automobile assembly, thus nobody, those big MNCs, willing to use China as an export base. Thailand has been such a base for many Japanese vendors, and now In...

Political systems can be changed over night, sir. The comparison or race between China and India, especially in long term, is more between 2 peoples and 2 civilizations than between 2 political systems as suggested here. - In 1950s, the comparison between Taiwan and the Philippines, could be called ...

Firstly, who tells you that WS10A has a same external dimensions with AL31/F? Then, sir, you need to redesign the whole plane when something as important as an engine to be replaced.

Sir, then India is a collection of Congress party/people's party/communists/lawless rebelling regions/Chinese and Pakistan occupied regions (according to your viewpoints of the border), right?

So you accept that India was not an independent country during and after the WWII? :D As for China, I respect your right of owning a personal opinion.

Explain. Hint: Olympic Games. So what? Scotland and Wales join Olympic every 4 years now, right? Sir, please don't deny the facts. 1.

Really?? The only people I hear saying that is the Chinese. Heck, Great Britain did not even consider the Chinese a participant and opposed their UNSC seat.

During 12th Plan period? So the delivery of LCA can be as late as 2017? I really doubt a plane with a design of 1990 can do anything significant to improve the capability of IAF by then.

Car is a good example. India states its consumption is as strong as half of China, despite the 1/4 GDP size. However, all items consumed in India is between 1/6 to 1/10 of China. If i made no mistake, India auto sale is only 1/8 of China, right? Let alone that most cars sold in India are so tiny. He...

Take it easy, sir. The current India official GDP was China at 2004 or 2005. From infrastructure to average citizen living standard, the current India is far less than China at 2004 or 2005. So either India overstate its GDP or China under report its GDP. I guess both. So Wrdos, Are you trying to sa...

wrdos

India under-report its economy stats? Not at all, sir. For example India claims its consumption to be a 1/2 strong of China's. GDP is 1/4 of China but the proportion of consumption is "twice as higher". Sir, Indian just buy almost any commodity products 1/6 to 1/10 of China. Just give me 1...

It is a small bird that reminds me of the IDF fighter developed by Taiwanese in the late 1980s and early 1990s, although a little bit bigger with two small engines.
