[Edison Chen]

Your are assuming that the Republic of India is run by 11 year olds & many of your statements are wrong,don't make assumptions on what you see on internet



You do know that there are other powers ready for investment,we are not begging you guys.there is gonna be a fantastic rate of return on your investments in this country,you are not alone that are eyeing for our Infrastructure & Investment pie there is EU,Japan,SK & many others.we are gonna grow with you or without you.

Please don't talk with no proof. EU to invest in your infrastructure projects? If they really could, they'v already walk through their crisis.

China and India should build economic ties in a more tradtional manner.

Chinese FDI is not welcome in India currently after the spy security scare of Huawei.

Chinese should first invest in FII through the various stock exchanges.

Then JV which will smoothen process towards 100% FDI in a safe environment.

Please don't talk with no proof. EU to invest in your infrastructure projects? If they really could, they'v already walk through their crisis.

Conceptually its a great idea but that's all it will be. When it comes to lending out who gets the money and how much, geopolitics will clash within the BRICS group. India will always view China suspiciously and even at the formation of the BRICS bank, India was trying to cut China off.

BRICS group is a show of solidarity between emerging countries but not a true and credible challenge. CPC is going along with the BRICS concept because its better to hunt in packs rather than individually. US gets in all its buddies in G7 but everyone knows the US runs the G7. Just look at how they all agreed to sanctions on Russia through US pressure on each member. Even Japan agreed to sanctions on Russia. US hunts in packs but they run these groups.

China Development Bank is already lending billions to the world and we can lend how much we want to whomever we want without getting the approval of any other country.

BRICS won't work because of the jealousy India has towards China. BRICS need a group leader to get things done and China being the most powerful economy, is the natural leader but India won't allow it.

Any group with India you can bet will be a mess. Just look at the recent WTO block.

Indians are too egotistical, too nationalistic, too anti-business, and too anti-China for China and India to ever truly work together.

China vs India rivalry is no longer about territory. It's about who secures natural resources globally, who has more influence in South Asia, Southeast Asia, who patrols the seas, who is the bigger economy thus getting the most power and influence, etc.
Both want more influence than the other in certain regions of the world and both will try to check the other.

2 big powers that are competing can NEVER be friends.

These are based on historical facts and common sense. Not on emotion.

The cooperation between China & India will be agenda driven as its not going to be a comprehensive partnership. Being a major power, India has its own ambition and interest, the same reason why US & India will never become full allies. But both China and India are facing a Washington dominated global economic system that both find it in their interest to overcome. On that agenda, China and India can work together to make BRICS bank and other financial instrument work. I believe both are mature enough players to maximize their interests where they align.

BRICS bank is irrelevant.

BRICS bank is irrelevant.

BRICS bank is irrelevant?? Ok guys, so we now have an expert on the subject! Stand back Brazil, Russia, India and China! We have here a specialist on PDF who says all these countries are wasting their fuking time with a BRICS bank that is irrelevant.

To the OP: These countries should have invited you to Brazil to convince all the BRIC countries on the uselessness of the bank. They would have then surely dumped this idea based on your sound logic.

Disagree. Your arguments against CPC policy seem to be based on emotion rather than facts. Emotions which have nothing to do with China, which makes sense given you have already admitted you are an American foreigner.

Read these two posts, to understand why CPC policy is supporting the BRICS initiative:

So I think there will be no problems in China-India cooperations for now. For example China to invest in India is not that bad, it's a mutually beneficial policy, as you know China's excessive industrial output need some relief. If not, the redundancy of inventory of China factories would probably cause liquidity risk to their own operating cash flows and even the whole industry chains. India has very huge infrastructure gap.

The cooperation between China & India will be agenda driven as its not going to be a comprehensive partnership. Being a major power, India has its own ambition and interest, the same reason why US & India will never become full allies. But both China and India are facing a Washington dominated global economic system that both find it in their interest to overcome. On that agenda, China and India can work together to make BRICS bank and other financial instrument work. I believe both are mature enough players to maximize their interests where they align.

The FACT is that America is our major strategic rival. The CPC understands this, hence our support of the BRICS as a counterweight.

This has nothing to do with emotions, or intentions, but facts and capability. America are the ones who can threaten us with sanctions, cutting us out of the dollar system (like they are trying to do to Russia right now), and even a full blown naval blockade.

Which is why we are using institutions like the BRICS bank to strengthen our own currency and payment systems overseas (to counter sanctions). And it's why we developed the DF-21D carrier killer, which will allow us to sink large warships from thousands of kilometers away (to counter blockades).

As for India, that is a joke. Maybe they are a threat to Bangladesh, but not to China.

We hold the high ground on the Tibetan plateau, an insurmountable geographic barrier. Even the Soviet Red Army could not threaten us across such a barrier, let alone the Indian army which is not even a fraction of their power.

Not to mention we have the world's largest arsenal of sub strategic (non-nuclear) missiles, including thousands of conventional ballistic missiles, cruise missiles and rocket artillery. Which could easily take out all of India's airfields in the NE, rendering them without air cover.

Hell, New Delhi is only 300+ km from the border, we can hit it with even conventional artillery (which uses very cheap shell ammunition). We could level their capital city with only conventional weapons and missiles.

As for the sea, we have around 70+ submarines, including 10 nuclear ones. Whereas India only has 7 active conventional submarines. Our submarine fleet alone... outnumbers even their major surface combatants (destroyers and corvettes) plus their submarines. And that's not even counting our surface fleet! Which again, outnumbers them by a massive margin.

Even India's own generals openly admit they cannot hope to match China in both conventional and non-conventional terms. And we enter their territory whenever we like, forcing them to break down bunkers and stop troop patrols, even on their own side.

To sum up, our major strategic rival is the USA, not India. And the CPC knows it, hence their dedication to the BRICS initiative. This is based on facts and reality, not emotion and other such nonsense.

And no matter how much you attack CPC policy, this will not change. They are smart, they understand geopolitics much better than you do, the idea that you think you know better than them is ridiculous.

If India would stop being an arrogant occupier of both Pakistani and Chinese lands the region would be progressing at an even faster rate.

That could have been solved in 1962.

Did you know that we asked Pakistan to help us fight against India in 1962, which would have allowed Pakistan to take back Kashmir from an already defeated India?

But Ayub Khan chose to side with India instead. In fact he even offered joint defence to India, against China!

Bhutto's foreign policy legacy - DAWN.COM

Bhutto was then leading Pakistan's delegation at the UN General Assembly.

He was alarmed at President Ayub Khan's offer of joint defence to India.

Bhutto felt that only those unlettered in international affairs could believe that such an offer would be accepted. In fact, it was more likely to incur the hostility of China which had so far, despite our membership of anti-communist western alliances, refrained from criticising Pakistan.

And in return for that, India repaid Pakistan's generosity with 1971.

Only if Ayub Khan has sided with us from the beginning, instead of America and then India!

US is the primary enemy but India and Japan are teaming up to counter China. Anyone that has the potential to challenge China long term is a threat. This makes US and India the 2 biggest threats. Japan to a lessor extent.

BRICS bank cannot achieve anything due to India's jealousy towards China. Indians hate China for humiliating them in war and Indian hawks always talk about countering China. India already did its best to counter China in BRICS, which shows India's long term hidden agenda. What exactly can the BRICS bank do that the China Development Bank cannot do? Why should China help India become more important or bring them into a club. India wants to be the number 1 Asian power so why should we help them?

If you think India is an ally of China, then you clearly don't understand geopolitics. You are the one that was jumping up and down as Modi was elected when it's clear he is an anti-China nationalist. By wishing Modi well, you show your lack of knowledge on geopolitics. Anyone celebrating the success of China's rivals has no business calling themselves pro-China. Real pro-China people will never support either US, India or Japan. All 3 of them hate China and want to counter China, so wishing they get stronger mean you are not looking after the best interests of China.

I want all 3 of those countries to weaken and collapse.

CPC don't trust the Indians. They see the US as the primary threat but India as no friend or ally. I'm pro-China and fully support conservative leadership within the CPC so all I care is China to get stronger and its rivals to get weaker.

Modern China has no place for liberals. People and countries that hate China should not get any love or admiration. Thus US, Japan and India are all threats to China.

Yeah I know Ayub was an idiot and Indians have always been opportunists.
