I dont think India is all that important in this century.(average)

Its China and USA.

India, maybe in the next century or later this century.


*********EDIT**********

Just my opinion... I can be totally wrong.

I think China and India will be the real stories of this century.

America will probably retain a GDP advantage for the next decade or two, however in terms of GROWTH I think China and India are the ones to watch. No doubt about it.

The US is a declining power while India is, for better or worse, a rising one. It's always better to gamble on the stock that displays an upward trajectory rather than try to ride the fluctuations on a downward stock.

I am so happy to finally hear some positive news from China.....many ppl want to see CHina rise....its a symbol not only for Asia but the world. It does not make sense to fight amongst each other. Both nations have suffered hard due to foreign aggression. its time to show the world and teach the world how we have co-existed for ages. Just imagine if we put our greatest assets together, it could produce some of the best innovations seen by mankind. We can finally do something mind boggling for mankind. Even focus on cooperation on moon mining or even solar energy from space. The possibilities are endless. I am very happy that Wen has incredible foresight and is open minded!
