China-India Geopolitics: News & Discussions

[AndrewJin]

China better beware before the Indians conduct a surgical strike on them .

I am so terrified by the Surgica Strica inflicted by Indian media.

To be honest, when we were still a less-developed country in 1980s' or 1990s', I could hardly come across any Chinese press articles that saying the crap like "US/Japan is scared China because of China's advantages on technology, talent and manufacturing, blabla". The major tone on the Media is always like: "Why we are so poor? Why we can not build good TV, good wash machine, good phone, good car, good truck, good bus? The gap between USA and China looks desperate! Can we really close the gap in one day? " The media tone always sounds like this. Even today, most of the media discussion is still about we need to work harder to catch up the US on military and IT technology, Japan on automobile and semiconductor, Germany on heavy machinery.

Weakness are not barriers to a brighter tomorrow, but arrogance is

The media tone of vietnam now is like China in the 80s but the tone is more despair. When will vietnam be able to produce nuts and bolts?

 

[AndrewJin]

At first sight it reflect to me five reasons why India is so scared of China... and in milliseconds more than five appears..
1. String of Pearls
2. Military budget of China
3. Six Chinese technologies that might change the world
4. China Pakistan Economic corridor
5. Top Ten secret Weapon of China

But unfortunately mungerilal has nightmare..which is opposite

Counter your claims:

1. World's strongest military in India
2. Military budget in PPP term
3. Vedic tech that shapes human beings
4. India-Africa Economic Microcorridor
5. Upgraded mouth cannon

NEW DELHI: Though India lags far behind China in several fields, the communist country is getting wary of India's gains in foreign direct investment (FDI), technology and manufacturing. India's closer military ties with the U.S. is another major concern of China. China has realised that India holds great potential and if it is able to tap it effectively, India could emerge as a major threat to China.

Below are a few reasons why China is scared of India:

Foreign direct investment
On Monday, President Xi Jinping vowed to open up China like never before. China faces dwindling foreign exchange reserves when India is agressively pushing itself as a destination for foreign investment.

Premier Li Keqiang has annnounced that foreign firms would be treated the same as domestic firms when it comes to licences applications, standard setting, government procurement and would enjoy same preferential policies under Made in China 2025 initiative. China is scared it might lose FDI race to India.

In 2015, India was for the first time the leading country ($63 billion) in the world for FDI, overtaking China (USD 56.6 billion) and the US ($59.6 billion). This has set the alarm ..

Manufacturing

China is also scared of India overtaking it in manufacturing in the long term as labour costs in China are rising. Global Times, a Chinese establishment newspaper, wrote recently in an article headlined 'China should pay more attention to India’s increasing manufacturing competitiveness': “Although India is still in its initial stage of developing export-oriented manufacturing industries, the country has great potential to emerge as a regional hub for labour-intensive industries. One recent analysis showed China’s manufacturing hourly wage in 2016 was roughly five times that in India.”

The trigger for the article was India’s exports to China increasing 42% in January this year. Though China has a big edge over India in bilateral trade, it wants to see if the rise in Indian exports is a flash in the pan or a trend.

Talent
US-based software firm CA Technologies disbanded its almost 300-person research and development team in China while setting up a team in India with some 2,000 scientific and technical professionals over the past few years.

This is one instance that signals India having a better pool of technological talent. The Chinese state media has agreed that India has better technological talent than China. Recently, Global Times wrote, "Over the past few years, China witnessed an unprecedented boom in tech jobs as the country became an attractive destination for foreign research and development centres. However, now some high-tech firms are turning their attention from China to India due to the latter's relatively low labour ..

Technology
When India launched 104 satellites, breaking the Russian record of 37 satellites being placed in orbit at one go, the Chinese media made light of this achievement. But a few days later, it corrected its stand and said China could learn from India in space technology.

What India is doing in the space sector can be the envy of China. It is developing low-cost technology which finds takers in the west. India has already overtaken China in space technology, which is increasingly important due to its various civil and military applications. India’s low-cost and stunningly successful Mangalyaan mission last year had raised an alarm in China because China's own Mars misison had failed in 2009 and it has yet to launch another mission. China's worry goes beyond space sector. India's low-cost innovation in space technology can unlock its vast technological potential in other sectors too.


Indo-US military ties

Last year, India and the U.S. signed the Logistics Exchange Memorandum of Agreement (LEMOA), a militray pact that facilitates the provision of logistical support, supplies and services between the US and Indian militaries on a reimbursable basis and provides a framework to govern them.


Though the Chinese media downplayed the deal, it has beocme a big bother for China. The deal means that the U.S. can now dominate not only the Indian Ocean but also has easy access to South China Sea as the U.S. warships can dock and get repaired at Indian ports. This will dent China's attempt to ring-fence India by dominating Indian Ocean.

I used to think that only a few of us knew how to get big things done. First we envision it and then we work on it 24/7. And remove every single distraction out of the way. But as I've grown I've seen that the whole progressive world knows of this and this is exactly how they do it. Anyway what I was saying is that China knows of this and is doing just that but India doesn't even know.

Indian love bragging. It's a well known and proven fact but many delusion Indian will outright denied it and the most shameless thing they do is to point finger back at China and accuse Chinese of bragging.

This garbage self glorifying article by Indians just prove everything.

It is you who pose real threat to other countries with your military might and economic might which is evident in SCS and Tibet.

It is also you who pose threat to other countries with your military might and economic might which is evident in Indian Ocean and Mumbai.

Sure, we should ask your beloved laal topi strategist Zaid Hamid about how to become a super power in 5 years time...

Bahahahaha, Indians boasting about their multi satellite launch. While it's impressive from a commercial standpoint, it's hardly a talking point technology wise.
Feel free to cram more 1U cubesat into the rocket, better yet send a few sacks of potatoes into orbit and claim you've launched 1000 satellites because technically that's correct too.
