India rejects market economy tag for China

Govt will be able to impose steep anti-dumping duties on Chinese imports

Looks like they are sacrificing hongkong market to save their US market.
Uhhh I believe we're being unduly optimistic. Since HK is under China now, they'll just roll out the Chinese version of TikTok is what they mean. They can't have a freer TikTok in annexed HK.

One thing that India (and rest of the world) should immediately do is start making precursor components required for making medicines that currently have to be imported from China. India makes the medicines, but still needs to import the precursor chemicals from China. I believe China was threatening to cut off these medicine precursor components to India (in the middle of a pandemic they created) as a way to blackmail India. This is one way that China can hold the world hostage in the future, unless the world stops relying on China.

in india's case it is not an issue, GoI can simply order one of many PSU's to pick up the slack in manufacturing pharma API's, until private sector is ready to manufacture them with in the country. it's not the case that private sectors are not capable of manufacturing what's coming out of china, it's just some some of the quantities for certain medicines are not profitable relative to the demand.

This is a solvable problem, it's just a matter of time. India has enough pharma parks around country.

Centre wants to set up API parks, mulls reviving PSU bulk drug units

Centre to sell stake in certain pharma PSUs: Goyal

"The PLA's destruction of the Indian market opportunities for PRC tech firms is an impressive feat."

RCEP is beneficial for those who have products to sell specially finished goods , India on the other hand have nothing much except agricultural products I guess and will turn into a dumping zone of products from all those nation specially China increasing the trade deficit further.

But it can not continue forever and the industry need to wake up.

Germany should shift the manufacturing to a democratic free nation . There is no point in keeping line open and help out Xitler.
Companiese choose profit not ideology, otherwise India already been a superpower.

Companies choose pragmatism, because pragmatism is the road towards profit and growth.
India has consistently acquired a bad reputation as a place to do manufacturing, and still even in Modi raj bare minimum is being done to change this.

Ching chongs after bending over for western businesses for approx 20 years have now acquired the scale, speed, cost and *cough* quality *cough* and dominance in certain sectors of manufacturing that makes it all but necessary to manufacture there, because the most experienced yet cheap workers, cheap, fast, high scale and acceptable quality suppliers of sub-components and best in class export-oriented infrastructure is found there. So even inspire of Xitler's antics since the past 5-7 years, everyone obeys.

Plus China is Germany's largest market for machines, the factory of the world runs on Japanese and German machinery basically.

Profit can be made from other locations too. Specially now India has emerged as the first place to do business and investment.

CCP is like the Demon which will self destruct itself with its antics anyway. And companies should adhere to there CSR towards human rights and FOE. It is high time world bring sanction on CCP and take down the evil Ping Pong Xitler.

Once there economic condition goes down a unified attack on CCP from all allied nation must be the next step.

Freedom of Tibet Xinxiang and expansion of Japan and Taiwan is the only solution to the mess we have in China.

India has weak manufacture, weak domestic consuming market, this is the only reason. You typed a lot, but make no sense to this issue.
Consooma market is strong here, not as strong as US and NUMBA WAN country, but still.
Thing is people need to be gainfully employed to keep consooming, and currently the IT boom isn't what it used to be being the "root" employer causing ripple effects of employment in other sectors( construction, FMCG, retail, screwdrivergiri manufacturing to avoid import duties ) etc.

Currently situation is bad and will get worst, our country must plan for the future.

WRONG.
I wish it was true but it is wrong nonetheless.
In terms of manufacturing Vietnam and Mexico getting most investments, and then SEAsian countries, and Bangladesh( used to, idk now )

IT boom is bust now, so the investments in the "tech" sector are basically whatever Mukes is doing with Jio and those food delivery sites like Zomato/Swiggy and those e-learning startups.

btw western countries and japan korea etc will not put sanctions on Chongistan and cut off directly because business interests.
These are post-nationalism countries, only paisa matters, paisa itself is national interest.

We need to go above and beyond to attract manufacturing to our country to boost employment and create global scale export( i.e FACTORY OF DA WORLD ) quality industry.

Chamgadar-khor bs at the border will not stop ever, we need to have a strong domestic industry to tackle them effectively.
