Linear increase in global GDP share is good enough...believe me, before one starts dreaming of exponential growth! Look at India's export performance - all kinds of grand dreams cooked up and leave alone linear growth, since 2012 there has been no growth at all! I will take the steady linear growth ...

We don't even have to go that far. We must remind China everyday about its CPEC activities in the Indian state of J&K. We must warn China that these projects located in POK are fair game for India. Setting up an equivalence between Kashmir and Arunachal is rather dangerous...CPEC is fair game f...

China desperately wants ingress into future Indian economy for her products....trying through CPEC, Hambanthota and now Maldives ! India should ensure that none of these efforts succeed. Maybe pass a law that requires every product sold in the country to have a Blockchain based certification of orig...

Its good to have a smart competitor like China! But India has to keep pace and ensure that we are equally competitive in Science, Technology and industries of the future.

Lithium Ion Batteries - India Needs To Be In It To Win It I don't know why this need to push Li-ion batteries is in the economy thread?

The below is for this member by name 'Arjun' with respect to his fears about how GoI is sleeping on AI front.

History of India China relations from an American historian who has spent time wading through all the historical Chinese govt archives

Arjun

If China had been dismissive of India and not paying any attention to it given its poverty - that indeed would have been good for India! Unfortunately, geopolitical moves by China since the 1950s are completely contrary to that misinformed 'lay' Chinese person opinion. In fact, there was a very good...

Arjun

China wouldn't be consorting and actively propping up a dead-beat nation like Pakistan if not for the fairly considerable 'attention' it has been paying to blocking India over the decades

If anything - they have been paying far more attention to India's rise than most Indians do

Arjun

Deleted. Off topic. We all know what 'you are getting at' . The point is that you don't know what we are getting at

Arjun

The issue of interest to me is that while the Indian economy is improving in comparison to China especially with the crossover in growth rates over the last few years - India has been declining in relative competitiveness in comparison to the same nation, in most key industries of the future. So the...

If accepting 'Chinese domination' refers to Chinese domination in trade, business, science and technology - then it does makes sense! You can rest assured, Indians have no problem at all in accepting Chinese domination on these fronts and Modi and team are absolutely unlikely to do anything about it.

Arjun

Good writeup?? Some of the arguments in there are so stupid its not even worth a response ! Leave aside these asinine arguments, the reason that makes far more sense is simply that India will lose out in the race to dominate strategic industries and in the Science & Tech arms race to China. Any ...

I work in the fields you wrote about. I'm familiar with Chinese presence in it, and deal with them directly. Like I said, they've shown great ability to throw a lot of money at the problem, not necessarily to get results to match. We have a very dynamic ecosystem of companies in the same fields, bu...

The graph says 2017 - 19...so looks like they considered two years of growth.

Eurozone GDP is more like $13.something T and they must have assumed about 2% growth over next couple of years.

Arjun

Yeah...and at some point over the next few years India will be contributing more to global growth than the US. Looks like China, India & US will remain the big 3 going forward

Arjun

But India does not need to emulate China. Why manufacture for the world? It makes no sense. The environmental destruction as a consequence of the behemoth is not what India wants and needs. If India does not have the capability to export - India will import massively, as simple as that! The world h...

Completely agree with Bart, N Rao & Sridhar. The lack of vision from the Indian end, especially over the last 2 years - in AI, IoT, drones and the like has been truly pathetic.

Simple...any trade negotiations are to be based on how big of a potential market they are to us and how much immigration they will allow! And that is the current stance on all negotiations anyway.
