Nobody is comparing India with China except the Indians themselves.

Former Singapore Prime Minister Lee Kuan Yew said India and China cannot be mentioned in the same breath. China is on another level. In India people are obsessed with China's global standing but in China people hardly talk about India.

India is the country of future, and the future never arrived, LEE KUAN YEW

"What the media doesn't understand" implies that the Media actually seeks to understand. They don't. They seek to shape your understanding to their liking. Period.

India exports about $450 Billion a year. China exports over $6.6 Trillion a year and is the largest trading partner of 140 countries world wide. China's strength isn't just a large population. It's the entire industrial, manufacturing ecosystem together with the technical know how, the abundance of labor skills and know how, the state of the art logistics and infrastructure in just one place. India just can't compete. They are not even in the same league.

Well done. Musk instead of visiting Modi prefered to visit chinese PM. The supply chain, infrastructure and the manpower quality in india and in china are completely different. And beaurocracy no needs to speak. Cleanless vs clean... Unsafe vs safe... India speaks too much and does much less.

I visited India April 2024 as a tourist and I also toured China in 2018. I completely agree your comment about comparing Mercedes to a model T. There is no comparison 😢

Do not talk about India and China in the same breath. India is not a real country. Instead, it is 32 separate nations that happen to be arrayed along the British rail line. - Lee Kuan Yew

India is number 1 at BS. 😂

Economically, India and China are in two different leagues. There is no comparison; you’re absolutely correct. In my opinion, India has a tough time finding itself, largely due to the long history of British colonialism. It’s foolishly proud of its “democracy” and yet blind to its ineffectiveness for a poor developing country with myriads of problems, inefficiencies, cultural and religious divisiveness, corruption and burdensome bureaucracy. In contrast, China is pragmatic, efficient, effective, cohesive and stable. Geopolitically, India is hysteric about China. This sentiment is clearly manifested in India’s popular media and in its ruling class. Frankly, its root is a mixture of foolish pride, inferior complex and unwarranted suspicion. Over the decades China has resolved peacefully its territorial disputes with all its neighbors, countries large and small, except two: India and Japan. Chances of a resolution are not good because India’s leadership is afraid of appearing weak by making compromises with China. Also India uses the dispute as a leverage to bargain for favorable considerations from the US. As such, I don’t think India is genuinely wanting to resolve the dispute with China. It’s ashamed that India is not seeking cooperation with China to jump start and speed up its development. Both are great and ancient cultures. For thousands of years, the two civilizations were friendly neighbors. Frictions between the two nations were a legacy of the irresponsible and evil British empire. Foolish pride on the part of India is getting in the way of true friendship.

There are many reasons India can't be the next China: 1) how the two countries became independent or founded...China was built on a successful revolution where India's independence was the result of accommodation and compromise with the British -- meaning not a true new order and still being attach to the old interest group. 2)no land reform -- India will never have high speed rail projects as China, and can not enact policy to facilitate an advance industrial economy 3)religion/ caste system -- this is the biggest reason India is backward 4)women still treated as subhuman 5) Infrastructure basically an F 6)political system -- where corruption rampant on the so call democracy system 7) Lack of common unifying identity as a country, no official language ?? People can't communicate from different region? Modi try to unify India by Hinduism while persecute other non-Hindu population 8)govern minority by suppression, Nagaland, Manipur, Assam, Punjab ??? As a Chinese, I don't think India get it's act together and honestly comparing China to India is an insult to the Chinese people because it tool 40 years of hard work to bring China where it is today. China is a best country for minority and women and basically eliminated crimes from the society...just youtube search here "is China safe" to see what people are saying.

Indian always feel the need to talk loud. Only with talk big and loud they can feel secure

Never heard any Chinese comparing with India.

I always wonder do Indians and Modi know that India is dubbed as "the graveyard for foreign investment". Those who had invested there were drowned one by one. No foreign companies like to do business with India.

Find another's example: India vs USA comparison

How can you compare these two countries? On every level, they are miles apart like China is like Rolls Royce compared to India which is more Morris Minor. Another way is comparing heaven and hell as I have visited both countries at different stages of development and in terms of infrastructure

Great video. But I will like to point out that education in India consists of 2 extremes. Since her independence, India has tried to build a highrise without digging the proper foundation. This is most true with its education system. While India boasts several extremely top notch universities. Its primary and secondary education system for the vast majority of Indians is abysmal. But don't take my word for it. Look at PISA. A yearly multi-disciplinary / subjects test given to a large group of randomly selected students in every participating country by the OECD. About 150 countries compete in it every year. China consistently ranks in the top 5 despite its massive population. While India has done so poorly in the past that she has not competed in PISA since 2009! Apparently 2 yrs ago, Modi wanted India to compete in PISA again but sample tests given to random students resulted in such poor grades that the plan to re-enter PISA competition was scrapped.

Comparing china and india to mean that india is near to catch up china has no rationale, it's merely either propaganda or envy. The haters of china adore to bring that topic to discussion aiming to poke the dragon. But that exercise apparently ludicrous hides a geopolitical motive. The westerners in block search for gether pawns to fight china or russia, mostly china, given that since the theory of John MacInder the ultimate goal is to dominate, lean the called World Island, that updatednow is represented by russia, china and the 5 of central asia. For that they need explore the periphery, east europe, southwest asia, southeast asia, east asia... making pressure now on Ukraine, Georgia, Iran, India Philipines, Taiwan... and intel and ned and alikes go working on the countries around also.

china is the most sovereign nation on earth in regards to most crucial sectors. india is still just a post colonial outpost of the west. also, mirshamer is a biased sinophobic influencer not worth quoting. india should wise up and man up to cooperate with china, not being duped into divide and conquer mentality of the west.

India is developing & progressing - it’s high time too. Indians are euphoric about this. Nevertheless, it cannot be compared to China or any other country. It has miles to go. It cannot call itself a super power or a completely developed nation just based on its economy, which will certainly surpass that of Germany & Japan. India does not need at any level to beat China or any other country. All India requires is to be focused on its growth & development; provide basics, security & stability to its population. Then, it will be automatically recognized & praised. Western media are utilizing India to contain China & Russia.

It is a obvious trick for West to hype the topic of comparison between India and China. India is a great ancient country and it is independence country who will do everything they want to do. India has the right and potential power to over take the USA and be the First country in the World. China welcome every country to be the First in the World. Most Chinese people care about only their own life. if West country and their entrepreneurs want to invest India and eagerly wish to replace China with India, that is their freedom to do it. if India want to utilize West to develop itself, that is India's wisdom. Chinese think they also have the right to improve the level of their people. It is USA and West stop the step of China, not India does same. Behind the topic of comparison between China and India, everyone can see the arrogant and West supremacy. who give the right to US and west to comment the topic? What is their real purpose? after replacement of China, India will supply cheap commodities to West, for West they just change a slaver and they will continue to keep "west supremacy". It is 21th now, people in every country want to improve their life level. people do not need a leader who only take all benefit for itself. that is the trend of the World.

*incredible! superpower! india! TALK, TALK, TALK, TALK, BRAG AND BOAST, BRAG AND BOAST, BRAG AND BOAST, BRAG AND BOAST, TALK, TALK, TALK, TALK BIG SHIITTEEE, BRAG AND BOAST, BRAG AND BOAST, BRAG AND BOAST, BRAG AND BOAST, TALK, TALK, TALK, TALK, TALK BIG SHITTEEE.........

India absolutely need to be NATO's circle... No Action Talk Only.

As, an Indian I'll say we Indians are f*cking ambitious and hard working !!! Doesn't know when but, it'll eventually happen !!!

Two questions: 1. Has the speaker been to India? 2. Has the speaker been to China?

Really liked the video and insights into monetary policy with the triangle and how nations define their economic approaches based on those goals. Looking forward to seeing more content, keep it up!

India can't even modernise it's colonial days rail system.

India beat China on overpopulation and English. US is paying western medias to puff up the India economy . It's lacking social coherent, multiracial, accountability, education, civic mind, infrastructure, gender equality and productivity. Often they focus on economic growth but not paying attention to the environment, planning, safety and poverty. For example, it wanted to attract the high tech and semiconductors industry to Bangalore but facing water crisis, land and air pollution. Sooner more foreign investors will move out.

If India’s can maintain its growth of 8% for 28 years, then India’s economy can equal to China’s economy in the year 2020. And If China’s growth is about 5%, India can not catch China at least 70years.

superpower india 2023 #111 in Hunger index #161 in Freedom Press index #126 in Happy index #139 in GDP per capita #134 in HDI index #148 in Women, Peace And Security Index #1 pollution 10% earn

Loved your analogy ❤

. India should learn from China. India needs to do 3 things which is economic development, re development and much more development forget about trying to beat China and self glorification of India greatness. Trying to play politics between US and China does not serve India long term growth

India wanted to over-take China since ... But India has got no ability & competency to do do... India only got advantage of mastering the English language, rest that that, difference in culture, mindset, work ethic, competency of government 's machinery, can be compared to China's innovation, diligences etc... wait for modi to think & perform better!!!

Sorry to say but india missed the manufacturing train. India should have been China 40 years ago. A pity India lacked a Deng Xiaoping.

Comparing India vs china. As you compare moon with the sun 😂. I can’t say about after 50 yrs but I can only say about next 5 yrs to max 10 yrs. Today chinas GDP is approx 5 times that of India in next 5 yrs this gap may lower to 4.5 times and even after 10 yrs. chinas GDP still be 4 times that of India while indias population already surpass china in July of 2023 So by 2034. Chinas GDP will definitely surpass the USA gdp and definitely will be more then 30 trillion usd India by 2034 still I do not think can reach more then 8 trillion usd So India even coming close to china is not coming even next 10 yrs and people who talk about 2050 l laugh on them as no one knows what will happen by 2050 we should max talk about next 5 yrs 😊

interesting video, but funny enough according to the black papers released against modi opposing his white papers, manufacturing in india has actually decreased over the years, and india has chosen always to focus on service industry instead of manufacturing

Bloomberg has lost its credibility.

India will be growing just fine, and Chinese actually don’t mind India becoming more developed as it is just another market for Chinese goods. What really annoys me is India’s lack of strategic thinking, as it refused to be a partner of China in economic development, rather it sees itself as a competitor, which makes no sense. India is better off as a friend of China than an enemy of China

Anybody who's been to both India and China cannot compare the two countries at all. Despite high economic growth, the inequality, social backwardness and poverty in India was shocking to see. In terms of infrastructure and innovation, China is miles ahead by far. Having said that, in the next 50 years, i reckon China will be the undisputed global economic superpower with India following. It has been like that for centuries.

each country's development is unique; india will never be another china which is not to say its development will be inferior; it will be different for sure and will it have the same level of success is highly debatable. there are many variables that will affect indias develoment and what affects those variables is too difficult to predect; current projections are uselss

Someone talking sense for a change..... Indians should pay attention.

I am not one of those Indians filled with gingoistic pride and I have to say I mostly agree with your analysis of India especially. One big difference between China and India has been the quality of leadership and to someone looking in from outside, at least as far as the Chinese and their material fortunes are concerned, China has had much much better leadership. While ours has been consistently third rate be it in decades after our independence or now.

Spot on analysis and remember that they are both BRICS countries ...

Where Indonesia, Vietnam, Bangladesh, Malaysia, Mexico going to play. 😂😂😂😂

Well no comparison China is 18.53 trillion and India is 3.97 trllion …also India is just adding 400 billion to its economy every year while China is adding 1.1 trillion approx

Discussion is about whether india would catch up to china or not . Even if India doesn't. It would still become a big economy in future considering the fact they are constantly growing at 8% . Their recession possibility was 0% as per IMF .

Bruh's social credit score went wayyyyyy up now he wont be harvesting

India is determined and will be powerhouse someday but India’s Governance is Democracy and it’s may be difficult to common prosperity for India’s Netizens to achieve as India’s Economy climbs in the future but who knows? India may her ways in the Global Status in the World.👍🙂

New subscriber here. 👍👏💡

Hindia has never been a global power or global economic power. Hindia may have very high total GDP but thats because it has a very large population, but its per capita GDP is extremely low. China's total yearly growth is more than Hindia's, percentage of growth means nothing when the base is small to begin with. Hindia has no global influence in any way, unlike China.

India should be compared with US, not China.

One can enumerate any number of factors that are likely to hinder India becoming the next China. I generally reject generalisations in discussions of this sort. However, I can't overlook the elephant in the room in this discussion -- India's deeply rooted CASTE SYSTEM will hinder the mobilization of India's plentiful resources for a long, long time.

And you're yourself "media". Should I believe you?

Overpopulation, climate change, rising environmental degradation and food, water and energy prices will be an increasing drag on the economies and stability of both India and China. A few bad harvests will send both countries into social and economic chaos. We’ve entered a new climate and agricultural production era where the past no longer informs the future. Economists just don’t have a clue.

simple... just look at their work ethos, and the civilization record...

Lacking basic understanding of the topic. It's a completely nonsense video.

India was never a united country as we know them now. The united India was created by the British for organizational efficiency. That is also why the bonds were not strong in 1947 when the new nation was split between Pak and India. Of course, it did not help given the British divide and conquer strategy. India is more like the EU compared to China. It is a collection of small nations. The north and south are so different. It is too diverse to function as one nation to be able to beat China economically. A lot of alignment and time is needed to reach a China level. That is just the way it is. Certainly great leadership can do miracles, Gandhi being one example, but you need many Gandhis in a row to create a solid foundation from which the nation can take off. Perhaps in a few hundred years of a united India might achieve what China has. I do not think the world understands what China has done in the last 70 years, moving a billion people out of poverty. That is not due to good luck but centuries of trials and errors which created a culture which with the right leadership could and did perform this "miracle". This is not a critique of India but what the facts are. It is a mistake to compare the two great civilizations. They just evolved differently. It is about learning from each other, building relationships and moving on. Historically, these two civilizations had good relations with each other where both were successful and at peace. I personally like the pragmatism of the Chinese. I see that in the BRI program. No patriotism BS on their side. Live and let live. Though Modi is a strong leader, he is doing harm with the Hindu/Muslim stunt. Team India should be about liberating Indians from poverty for a start. It does not have the luxury of the British divide and conquer strategy if it wants to emulate China. This is part of the trials and tribulation journey of the country, to learn and be aware.

India should compare with Vietnam.

Came for the awesome report but stayed for the comments 😂

India has self esteem complex 😂

Thanks for the constructive criticism but we indians will still try our best to prove every critics wrong. We are not next china . We are not authoritarian . We are democracy. Our Govt dont have right to do anything what they want. There are obstacles in our growth. But obstacles are not same as Road Block . We want to grow . For our self respect which got destroyed during 2 centuries of Humiliating Colonisation . Not even one generation has passed since india gained its independence . We spent 50-60 years to rebuild our country from scratch after 200 years of destruction . Now we have just started to grow . This is our battle . For our cause . Not for you or anyother hater in comment section .❤ If we were able to start a discussion whether we could catch up to china or not . Its still a minor victory for us .😊

Not possible for India to take over China's economic growth. It has too many holes in its civic infrastructures and too expensive Civic Services. Unless these Civic factors are remedied, India will NOT reach its maximum potential. The reason why China is progressing economically stronger and faster that any other country are: (1) amazing Civic Infrastructures; (2) affordable Civic Services for all; (3) a population with a literacy rating of 98%. The Citizens of India are still trying to mobilises efficiently around the cities, states and Country. Housing is in great demand in India, with no real solution in the near future. China has successfully implemented Civic commodities all over their country so now they're at the next stage of development, and that is ... a global trading network (BRI's land, air, and/or sea).

India must be grateful that Hindi Chini Bhai Bhai exiists ¹which is proclaimed by Nehru.

India’s burgeoning population does not automatically equate to economic growth. India is wracked with partisanship along religious, language and geographical lines. It could lead to serious problems if not managed properly.

No you guys are wrong I heard this from another Indian news channel that they already have the 15th generation stealth fighter and missile going 27.255% faster than the speed of light.

2025 India will join G7 and will become a superpower country!

India is a superpower, and my country is still many years behind India. I hope my country can develop quickly and catch up with India as soon as possible. Love from China

We don't care two hoots for XiXiPee

Interestingly the thumbnail of this video chose the Tiger to represent India and Chinese dragon to represent China when the place of origin of modern tiger is actually China.

AI here...look on that blinking every second

Cope

Entire comment section berating Bharat. Its nobody's case we are far behind Xina at the momenty thanks to the Brown Britsh who ruled us for 70 years. We have just started in 2014. Obviously there is no love lost between Xina and Bharat and West has nothing to do with it.

jfc you missed the elephant in the room. the reason the second most populous country in the world is in competition with most populous nation in the world is the second most populous nation in the world does not want the most populous nation in the world to under cut them on labor. also there is the water along their border.

India can't even complete with Bangladesh and Indonesia ask their God how on earth can it complete with China so don't make the whole world laugh 😅😅😅

The Bloomberg's growth comment is referring to India overtaking China's growth, it is absolutely correct. For many years now India has been the fastest growing major economy (except maybe 1-2 years in between). I don't get why Chinese people or chinese-aligned youtubers get insecure reading this. India is what China was in late 2000s(use your own model T comparison now). Its rise in invetible and you too will shed this "India is too poor and incapable image" when media hypes it up at the end of the decade. By 2030, India will reach the 7 Trillion GDP mark, which was China's GDP in 2013. Also I don't get the "they are at different stages of development" argument. China's GDP per capita is still well below 20k USD. So still room to grow before that "hard-cap" hits. It's just the economy under-performing after suffering from a real estate crisis opening up the wounds of unsustainable infrastructure-spending. Lastly, so much of automobile design work is being outsourced from Europe to India. To a lower extent, even semiconductor design is being outsourced to Bangalore. If India develops domestic manufacturing capacity, it can leapfrog the manufacturing ladder and produce quality products. Also, just like we aren't friends of US, we aren't friends of China as well. India won't come even remotely near Chinese GDP till 2050. But India can be 1/2 of Chinese GDP by 2050 and that is more than enough to tip the scale towards the west if China continues this juvenile aggression towards India.

paid narrative.

nonsense. my country india is light years ahead of china. my superpower advanced country.

Please note India doesn't want to shoe maker and dress maker for the world, Indian production is for India so it does not matter whether it is 3% or 30%

CCP propoganda at its best 😂😂😂

Jai Hind. India advances China regresses

superb summary of so many things!

Russia's FM once expressed to the media that they have tons of Indian rupees in Indian banks which they couldn't use elsewhere, he also added that they want to exchange these Indian rupees into other currency so that Russia can use them. Even though Both of them had made a deal to accept Indian rupees, Russia now has a concern about how to use that money. So, There is going to be a problem between these two countries. Their relationship is not going to go well in the near future.

I do not understand why some people like to compare in this manner: XXX no. 1, ZZZ no. 2 etc etc. Each and every country is different and unique. It is best to focus on what we do best and spread the wealth to the population. Who cares whether I am no. 1 or 2. Life is very fluid. Nothing remains stagnant for long. And you are right. Both countries have different languages, needs and culture. There may be similarities but there are also differences.

Industrial infrastructure has a rate of deterioration/depreciation, both from wear & tear & competitive obsolescence, the rate at which a new region can replace another is faster than some assume. Neither India or China deserve preferential treatment. China has decades of bad behavior, stealing IP & sleazy State/corporate mercantile behavior, facilitating nefarious propaganda, problematic human rights policies, bolstering bad actors like Russia… they have profited from global functionality & partnerships, but abuse that momentum. Overpopulation can make a country vulnerable also, esp if not self sufficient & while emboldening villains & global mayhem.
