    China Economy: News & Discussion

    I know people living in factories in India and working day and night. Doesn't make that a generalized issue. You may want to look up something called the All China Federation of Trade Unions. Labor laws, are in fact, not the consideration. 'Labor laws' in India, where they exist, are regularly...

    The Chinese don't face labour law issues? Your uncle needs an education in chinese economic history, my friend.

    There is. Your argument started with a response to my post, which was a response to somebody else's post. You oughta remember that $hit before you go kamikaze on me. Now, listen up Paulie. You started with an absolute comment that India "is infamous for its shitty infrastructure", which you...

    That's a drastic tone-down from your previous post. Since you understand the essence of what I'm talking, that you cannot rely on 'what you see' in the media, on the internet and on chinese cinema or TV to paint a picture of India, because India is not all what you see in the media, but...

    Listen chico, we understand we have bad infrastructure. Not so long ago, China was a rotten shithole with slums spilling all over. Even today, there are slums in Shanghai. Boarded up and separated from the 'outside' world. The 'rest of Mumbai' is a relative term. New Bombay or Navi Mumbai, as...

    What is that you're drunk on again? Dim sum? Most Indian Tier II cities have better infrastructure than Mumbai. But parts of Mumbai- like the Bandra-Kurla complex- can put even Shanghai to shame. Don't be so stupid as to believe everything you see on 'Slumdog Millionaire' is Mumbai. Twit...

    Where do you get off? At a nominal GDP of 4.909 trillion dollars for 2009 and a population of 1,324,655,000, China had a per capita GDP of $3700. Now unless you're telling me China grew by 21.6% in the last fiscal or its population dropped by a hundred and seventy-four billion, China cannot...

    Eh, eh. The link you've pasted is certainly not the link I've posted. About half of the pics on that Google search are of Chinese slums. There are more a little more searching could find: Shanghai slums - Google Search...

    China has also had 3-4 fiscal revaluations since the the 1990s'. India has had none. One is due very soon. Which will decrease the margin of China's to India's GDP by about 3.8-4 times to about 3-3.5 times. I'd expect a country that liberalized 13 years before India did, that used...

    You're an idiot, you 'disconnected' fool. I am from Mumbai. Do you mean to tell me, that YOU a sinopvke, know more about my city than me? This 'showcase' slum you're talking about is Dharavi: India's most notorious and filthy slum. No other slum in the city is like it, NO other. Now, cut the...

    There is nothing 'analogous' about the evidence at all. I've lived 3 years of my life in a slum. If anyone can tell you what slum life is in Indian cities, it is me. Ofcourse, I am referring specifically here to urban slums. Those dense, urban agglomerations where, despite people being...

    Son, you're showing me pictures from the '90s. Go figure. How about I show you pictures of Shanghai slums from the '90s? Or how about I show you pictures of Shanghai slums from 2008. And air-conditiong? You're damn right. Mumbai's five-star slums Wise men tell us not to judge a book by...

    The "slum inhabitants" in India have had air conditioners, refrigerators, gas stoves and in some cases even computers long before modern Chinese "blue collared" workers could even afford them. Looking at some of the "housing" for lower middle-class workers in Chinese cities leaves me with...

    China Economy: News & Discussion

    A "famine disaster" in the making will never occur in India, as it has done in China. Too much media uproar, political lynching, recrudesced subsistence farming and far too many political fates depend on it. Besides, if you did follow some Indian news, as we would expect after having been a...

Besides, we do post and have never stopped anybody from posting, its counterpart, "good news" about China on this forum either. We post things we're interested in and discuss.

    Tsk tsk! You're only convincing me of my argument. The error arises out of China's classification of "passenger vehicles", which is far larger than that of the United States, and is not even its preferred mode of "modal"' conveyance.

    Have you studied the chinese definition of auto? I just gave it to you: In China, Small cars, sometimes referred to as the A0-segment, are vehicles including MPVs of less than 4 m in length (roughly corresponding to the European A- and B-segments, and the US EPA's mini- and subcompact...

It was 7.31 million for passenger vehicles, as compared to 10.40 million passenger vehicles in the United States...
