Re: Some interesting economy data of Chinese families.

Because in the rest of world, no one thinks that 3 or 2 wheels vehicles are cars!
Who said anything about a two-wheeler being a car? Motorcycles are modes of transportation. They also do not fall from the sky, they have to be bought. So why is the "number of cars" a metric of prosperity but not the "# of two-wheelers"? Just because the metrics are developed for the western world, where it snows half the year and hence two wheelers aren't much use. In India that's not the case, hence it is the world's largest market for motorcycles.

If you used logic to make your arguments, you wouldn't make such a fool of yourself. :rolleyes:

guy, your arguement is meaningless,because China is also the by far largest producer of 2-wheel or 3-wheel vehicles in the world,,,in fact, perhaps China produces 2-wheeler and 3-wheelers than the rest of the world combined.

No. because someone only has mouth. They can't affort the cost to China and see everything by themself.

By the way , last year 55 million foreign visitor have been to China, while only 5 million foreign visitor have been to India.
