india beats herself with a growing populationBy: vijay | Tuesday , 10 Nov '09 12:50:37 PM Reply | Forward Unless indians are educated enough to limit their family sizes, there is no way for india to compete china, even to its neighbor Pak.

These comparisons are ridiramousBy: Keval | Tuesday , 10 Nov '09 2:25:04 AM Reply | Forward "Tawang belong to China, Dalai Lama is a liar, Our government is criminally insane and Chinese government is saint." There, I said it. Now I can go and sleep peacefully. Editors might not choose to publish it, but no government agent is coming to harass me or my family, no one is going to send me to prison for this one sentence in India. If what I say appear to be a joke, many leftists raise such voices frequently without fear of any retribution. That is the difference between India and China, and good enough for me to be ready to be perpetually inferior to China in all respect. If we can better manage our food resources and feed our children that is good enough for me to be the last one at all counts in all the indices or tables. All measurements are false- part of Maya, proclaimed vedantic saints, and their children fall prey to some petty tables of even 'meta measurements'. It just show nothing is static.

India beats China: What new report says on the state, market, peopleBy: Rajesh | Monday , 9 Nov '09 15:49:53 PM Reply | Forward There are good points raised by readers. Why don't our leaders and Govt Officials start addressing these issues and come up with comprehensive plan of action. After all we are democratic country where we can project issues to the Govt to address. Why Chines Govt is so efficient while our is pathetic. Is our democracy is flawed to produce such an outcome???

India beats ChinaBy: anwar shaikh | Monday , 9 Nov '09 13:27:33 PM Reply | Forward When I read this article today morning, I could not help speculating what would Indian middle class ( A class suffers from hugh inferiority complex from China, Europe and US) would react to it. The answer was predictable. This class would laugh and damn this article. Previous comments on this article confirm my prediction. All of them have same tone. How can you suggest India has beaten China. We have worst politicians (which the middle class did not elect by not voting), stinking cities, hopeless infrastructure etc.etc... To me the worst thing about India is not its politicians, cities and infrastructure, but the stink that comes from the inferiority complex of its middle class. Remove that stink and everything will be alright.

India - ChinaBy: N G Varadan | Monday , 9 Nov '09 13:08:48 PM Reply | Forward Fantastic! See what MMS and Sonia Have achieved! Why China, India can beat any country easily and permanently if Corruption, Sychophancy, mafia- politician nexus, selfishness, lack of civic sense, dishonesty, liberty to bare, etc... are included. Only regret is that it has come much later after the elections. MMS and Sonia would have won all the Lok Sabha seats !!!

nice analysisBy: pratik | Monday , 9 Nov '09 12:34:11 PM Reply | Forward I think people missing an important point that highlights the evolution in which market analysis is done. It doesnt really matter that India beats China.. both seem to be ranked pretty low. but its essential to make models like these as general as possible!!

India is Shining.By: Rahul | Monday , 9 Nov '09 11:45:10 AM Reply | Forward If India is developed and has 'beaten China', then how can you accept the fact that more than 1 crore people repeatedly vote for people like Mulayam, Laloo, Mayawati, Karunanidhi and others. It is relatively easy for someone to win an election in India as most people do not vote on 'issues'. They vote because they like the colour of someones sari or because they have been given food for the day. China is far more developed than India. Her cities are a powerhouse, they are clean, efficient and modern. Indian cities are ugly, ramshackle, inefficient and stink. So stop the comparisons. India will always be known as the world's garbage dump as long as democracy exists in India.

shameful inferiority complexBy: G.Gupta | Monday , 9 Nov '09 11:37:56 AM Reply | Forward Saubhik has a clear inferiority complex to justify an asinine index that is overwieght on democratic institions. I have been to China and their cities are fully developed and leading global cities while ours are ramshackle and third world. while we can vote, people there have far more economic freedom. what a insult
