China upbeat on growth, India lags behind

[ShabiKB]

Why waste time with someone from a country of which the official language is a foreign language？

These people are harmless，though they beome shameless when their pride is hurt。

They don't think so themselves. they priase high of their so called diverstiy which actually is a sign of underdeveloped society, no developed nation has this draw-back, it is a cultrual doom.

I don't think amoy was to deny the phenomenon among Chinese working with MNCs, but to question Ray's attempt to overinterpret it by equaling adopting English names in work places to "forsake his heritage and sell one's soul ".

In my opinion, Indians having English names as their actual names is much more "forsake one's heritage and sell one's soul".

Christians, at least those from my state Kerala dont have english names, their names have their origins in todays ISRAEL. All those names come from the bible. South India had Christian communities over a thousand years before the european arrived anywhere in Asia to colonize!

It is hard to measure China's economy when most of the numbers have been faked for
atleast a decade.

so what, in China, no Chinese uses English name in their ID, over seas Chinese or Chinese working in international companies sometimes have a English first name to be more convenient.

It is NOT like in India, Anthony is Anthony's official name.

Overseas Chinese is an other story, the story started as most overseas were actually slave laboreurs and dissidents, plus later on pro-KMT migrants, they don't have the People's Repulic style cultural confidence, so they go on to use colonial names as Indian do. Tradition stays onces started.

Chinese scholar -Gordon Chang.

Gordon Chang is an Irish, his father side is of Chinese descendants, but mothered by an Irish. Hostile as he is to China, he is considered by Chinese as a skillful pro-Chinese mouth piece.He wrote many China-Bashing articles and proven himself totally wrong after just several years, or months, thus caused western media's credit to drop further down.
He predicts China will collapse in 2000, in 2001, he even compiled a book called coming collapse of China, then he repeat his predictions in 2005, then 2008. then 2012, then you know the rest of the story, very clever move indeed.

What a smart-ass interview in 2009:

he cures people with depression, he made people think they are sunny optimistics.


By the way, If faking statistics can assure its people earn 6 times more than Indian people and live a much decenter life than non-faking indians, I don't see any problem of it.

China 'among world's most unequal countries'

SHANGHAI — China's wealth gap has widened to a level where it is among the world's most unequal nations, a Chinese academic institute said in a survey, as huge numbers of poor are left behind by the economic boom.


China's Gini coefficient -- a commonly used measure of inequality -- was 0.61 in 2010, the Survey and Research Center for China Household Finance said, well above what some academics view as the warning line of 0.40.


A figure of 0 would represent perfect equality, and 1 total inequality.


"Currently, China's household income gap is huge," said the institute, founded by the Southwestern University of Finance and Economics and the Institute of Financial Research, which operates under China's central bank.


"The Gini coefficient is as high as 0.61, rare in the world."


China's growing wealth gap is a major concern for Communist authorities, who are keen to avoid public discontent that could lead to social unrest in the country of 1.3 billion people.


In a sign of the sensitivity surrounding the issue the government has not released an official Gini coefficient for the country as a whole for more than a decade, since it put the statistic at 0.412 in 2000.


A figure of 0.61 would put China at the top of a list of 16 countries by 2010 Gini coefficient on the World Bank website. The largest set of figures available on the site is for 2008, covering 47 countries and headed by Honduras on 0.613.

The Global Times newspaper, which reported the latest survey results on Monday, said China's wealth gap had reached an "alarming" level.


But the research centre played down its own findings, saying such a phenomenon was common in rapidly developing economies.

It called on the government to use its vast financial resources to support low-income earners in the short term, while improving education to help address the imbalance in the long term.
"The Gini coefficient certainly points to the serious issue of income inequality," the director of the Chengdu city-based centre Gan Li told AFP.

"But more importantly about the interpretation of the figure is that it does not necessarily indicate imbalance in China's economy," he said, adding it was normal for greater resources to flow to developed areas.

"There's no need to make a big fuss about it."

The government-backed Chinese Academy of Social Sciences estimated China's Gini coefficient at nearly 0.47 in 2005.

Another research institute, the Centre for Chinese Rural Studies, in August put the Gini coefficient at around 0.39 for rural residents last year, but gave no figure for the overall national level.

Anthony is Anthony.

But Chinese Hu is a John.

What is so convenient of an English name?

What is the pronunciation of Cholmondeley?

It is Chumly.

That is easy?

Duke of Edinburgh is Duke of Edinbarrow!

Wow!

 

[LETHALFORCE]

Many Chinese -Americans change their name to more western names for the belief
that it will bring more economic benefits,koreans also do the same.

No Chinese Hu is not a John.
Chinese Wen is a vincent though, that is a joke, your democrazic brain will not understand it.

Of course, Ivy schools ask 200 point more for East Asia kids to be admitted, why? we paid more tax and we got disciminated against legally?
If changing a name can be more fair, why not?

Yes, He is indeed, I love him, for all the hard work he has done, why are you doubting me on this?
He is THE most skillful underground agent I have ever known.

Nothing wrong with it. It is an individual choice.

Yes, He is indeed, I love him, for all the hard work he has done, why are you doubting me on this?

How is he an underground agent when all his articles are over ground.

Are you suggesting that anyone who writes of China as the reality is, is underground?

Funny logic!

 

[Ray]

Of course, Ivy schools ask 200 point more for East Asia kids to be admitted, why? we paid more tax and we got disciminated against legally?
If changing a name can be more fair, why not?

Are you suggesting that the Chinese named people are discriminated?

How come Indian names are admitted?

The Americans hate the Chinese?

Is that what you are suggesting?

 

[Ray]

I find the Chinese race most confused.

They change their names.

They change their political ideology to embrace what they have hated and condemned all along.

And yet feel that they are on the same course!

 

[LETHALFORCE]

It is an identity crisis on a national/international scale.

 

[Ray]

It is an identity crisis on a national/international scale.

And an high sense of insecurity and embarrassment with names that foreigners are at a loss to pronounce.

Yet, with a high sense of national pride to sacrifice it all to make money to keep the feathers warm in comparison to others!

China in the past use to attract a lot of tourists for it cultural treasures from the past
nowadays them want to attract tourists by pushing the economic development angle.
