Okay, I will stop tagging you in population thread, but I do think that demographics is China's number one challenge going forward.
Also, rich and resourceful kids don't necessarily make good, hard working, and science oriented workforce of future.
Not my habit. I routinely praise China where required.
Also, I am not saying that India's young population will make it more innovative than China.
Innovation requires many many factors, but a young, science and tech oriented population is an important reason.
Umm no. Young people have a far better understanding and desire for progress and change on average. Japan is a prime example. Government regulations and restrictions are not much different in Japan compared to 2 decades back, but the innovation potential has decreased markedly.
That is a very...

Your weak point is soft power. It is soft power that wins friends and allies.
Your relations with all your family countries are hostile or uncomfortable.
Japan, Korea, Vietnam, Mongolia.
Not correct.
Australia is regulation wise the safest investment in minerals. It has got robust rule of law. While usually all other countries are various degrees of basket cases.
Australia is very very rich in minerals, and that too of high quality.
For some minerals, Australia can easily...
Australia and US are cut from the same cloth. There are ties related to culture, politics, ideology, etc. There is huge US influence in Australia.
China that is why will have to compete not just with the US but with the West, who will. Usually stick together.
Not really. Chinese BOM (Bill of material) is actually higher than others because China needs to import major components for robots. But Chinese vendors have got government support, and a tolerance for lower margins.
Of course this may change as China indigenizes components.
Also one thing...
That would pretty much mean india explicitly ganging up with US, Japan, and Australia.
How will it feel if india provides bases and radar points all across the Indian coast?
At the very least you will agree that india has huge natural advantage in IOR due to our long coast line, and location of...
No I am saying that. I want Uttar Pradesh to be split into 4 states. To make it more governable.
Also, india as a country has already split into a Hindu and Muslim part.
The Muslim part is called Pakistan and Bangladesh.
Also I advocated Xinjiang to be split into two provinces. Not separate...
Umm india is routinely split off into new states. Every few years a new state is formed for administrative reasons.
I am saying the same for Xinjiang because the northern half doesn't need to be an autonomous province. Only the southern. And Xinjiang is too large.
Indians routinely Talk and...
Yes I do. But those people don't do effort to learn Chinese. Many expats today in Shanghai and beijing live in their own bubbles and don't do the effort.
Also, as I said, once I know basic Chinese, even if a professor is using some sentences of Chinese I will be comfortable.
Let's see....
Man, I am a person up for a challenge. Also, that 4 hours is just my official training. I will be spending time at home as well. On the whole around 10 hours a week, for 100 weeks and I will be decent to go.
I am not a child, I am an adult; and my aim is not to speak flawless Chinese. My aim is...
