Ignore them bro.
Thanks to the preservation of ancient Chinese culture by modern China .Traditional clothing style of Chinese is now n the museum and art gallery.From functional attire ,marriage celebration to modern buildings Chinese dont have any problem in imitate European.
Of Course we accepted a lots of good values from around the world .English language was just one from Brits .We have accepted the Persian language ,Persian architecture ,Islam and Christianity and created our own version of peaceful yet powerful,highly valuable Sufi Culture ,Buddhism etc .Mughals came here with their ancient barbaric tradition .Due to their mixing with our tradition later Mughal kings like Akbar gave a lots of to this world .
Nalanda University was a prime destination of ancient Chinese Scholars.
But Chinese members cant understand that.
I dont like to see disparaging comments on either side as both China and China are Ancient Civilizations that are Continental-sized Nation States. India or I should say Hindustan is a nation that is one of the most 'ancient' civilizations that have maintained the continuity of Sanskrit , as well as their Hindu faith , which is as old as the old Egyptian and the Greek Hellenistic Faith that are all long gone now. India, however, has maintained their Hindu religion and preserved it for thousands of years for posterity and for their future generations. That is something they should be proud of. India also is a Republic that is centered on a cameral legislature, a judicial system that is independent of the legislative and executive. The country operates a unique representative democracy and one has accomodated for over 1.25 billion citizenry , which is a feat on its own --- being the fact that India is still a developing country with limited capital, yet She is able to maintain and uphold her democracy over these years since independence and through the various exigencies in her modern history.
The Chinese have much to be proud of, as well, since their country has developed greatly these some 70 years since the rise of the People's Republic of China and some 40 years since the introduction of the Open Door Policy and the integration of the Chinese economy into the world market. I believe that China and India, collectively, have much to be proud of since post WWII and post independence. Both have unique challenges respective to their societies, but the potential is high for them both, and one cannot possibly argue that both are the drivers for the economic fulcrum of the world.
India and China are both great contributors to civilization to Asia and the world, that is without a doubt. India and China have a bright future. A stable India and China shall bring stability as well as trickle down growth to the rest of Asia and the world at large.

Caste system and dowry for bride is just not right. Simple as that.
How absurd; their caste system is uniquely part of their religion. And as from i have studied and from my exchanges with Indian academics, the caste system is but a trivial aperture since there are forms wherein people may rise despite their caste. If I may make an example the current Prime Minister of India: Narendra Modi-Ji. He is of the Ghanchi (Vaishyas) caste, definitely not high such as Brahmin, however, he was able to rise as Prime Minister of India; the most powerful position in the land.
In India, one can rise from whatever caste. So long as one has education.
Lastly, why do you put down on India's own unique social order when your own country, Malaysia, has its own version such as the Bumiputra? I believe it is important for you , as a Malaysian, to focus on the problems of your own country, first, before you look at the issues of other peoples' countries.
The old adage of, "Tend to your village first before you look at the next village over," comes to mind.
