Difference between China and India in GDP per capita (Both Nominal & PPP)

[xTra]

why india spend so much money buying millitary hardwares instead of improving it econonmy?

We are preparing for Dussehra, as you must be knowing that we worship our arms and ammunation on this day.

 

[Chumbled]

these ridiculous debate would do no good to India and nor to China... I hate Indian members for coming on this Pakistani forum and desperately trying to prove themselves in each and every post..!! for what??

we are just creating a forum full of trash being written on India where People from Pakistan, China and bangladesh keep spilling sh** for India..
why do we have to prove ourself again and again and to those who hardly matters to India cant solve our problems??

if we are looking for token of apreciation from our neighbours then we are biggest fools as competitors never appreciate each other..!!

for God sake Indian member should stop this comparison game as this forum is nothing but an anti Indian forum and those who have played major role in spoiling this forum is Indians...

this forum is not meant for balanced debate so its better not to touch volatile topic as the level of maturity is not uniform in here and i request Indian members to stop directly or Indirectly polluting India's name...

we all are 3rd world country so its insane to compare who is less poor, less corupt, less racist etc...

Action speaks louder than words...

Wake up indians in this forum you are just not in our league yet may be in 20 years time you can compare yrself with us. at the mean time just learn from this indian chap


India is right now, where China was in 1990. At the cusp of their economic rise. Right now India is 20 years behind China in all aspects of life.

From it's woefully inadequate infrastructure. The fact that the lone highway from Delhi to Haryana to Punjab stops in the middle of cities so people on tractors and cows can graze past is just ridiculous. China already has unimpeded freeways while it's hard to travel over 30 km/h on some of India's highways.

China has a high-tech light rail system with blistering speeds. You can travel from mainland china to Tibet on a high-speed rail, in India, you'd be lucky to travel from Delhi to Mumbai by hanging onto the outside of a locomotive.

China already has the 2nd largest number of tall skyscrapers in the world, and it's cities are becoming world class Omega and Alpha cities. Beijing, Shanghai, Guangzhou, Tianjin, Hong Kong, just to name a few. India has Delhi and Mumbai which have slums right next to highrises.

China has already conducted a manned spaceflight, while India crashed a probe onto the moon with NASA's help. China is already nearly 55% finished with it's own space station, India can't even visit the ISS let alone build it's own.

China has started building it's own navigation satellite system to rival GPS, while India has to ask Russia to use their Glonass system.

China already has a fully indigenous military industrial complex which has already shipped more arms to Africa than Russia or the US. India buys 95% of it's arms from outside sources.

China has lifted nearly 400 million above the poverty line and now only about 100-150 million people live in poverty in China, while in India, the number is a staggering 500 million still living in poverty.

China built the worlds largest hydro-electric dam, the worlds second largest suspension bridge etc.
Beijing held the 2008 Olympic Games which were probably the best in history, and yet India barely was able to hold the Commonwealth games. They spent nearly 50% as much as the Beijing games due to corruption.

A growing popultion means nothing if the current population cannot be helped. You need to achieve equilibrium which China has sort of done.

Don't get me wrong, I love India, but there is a LOT to be done in India before it's even considered a great power. It's a regional power at best due to the growing military. Otherwise, even Turkey and Thailand have better infrastructure.

And please don't mention democracy. Only Indians know we don't have real democracy. We have a corrupt bureaucracy in which nepotism has existed for nearly 60 years. The fact that the wife of Rajiv Gandhi who is a caucasian, Italian-born woman, won the elections, just shows the sham of democracy. What's democratic when I can say the corrupt politicians, newspapers will start championing Rahul Gandhi who will be elected by the unedcuated masses.

India or China the next economic superpower? This shouldn't even be asked. It's China 100%. Though, ask me again in 2030 and then things will have changed. India is just too far behind in every aspect. Jai Hind.

Being compared to china is a compliment in itself.

...when some countries get bracketed with Afghanistan

These statistics dont matter very much . India will take its own time to get to a credible GDP per capita and as we all know , IMF projections sometimes over or undercompensate.

Till then countries in these regions can dream of

Rather stupid to start jumping ,just because they have managed to get a head start over India , when there are 70 + countries above ....

 

[Chinese-Dragon]

Good response to all those troll threads started by Indians.

They have no right to lecture others on poverty, when they are literally at the very bottom of the world.

 

[Splurgenxs]

but according to Indians they will overtake china in 2015 but data in this show the gap is getting wider not narrower . why?

lol where did u here that? it is said India will overtake China by 2035.
The answer to ur question is tht China has a higher base-value(10% of 4trill < 10% of 10trill) to increment upon as compare to India...the value u see are estimates considering ur growth rate is 10% through the next 5 to 10 years ...last time i heard China was reducing G-rate to 7% due to overheating (inflation due to Demand and tightening of interests)
The day u see ur Growth rate fall u can see the gap narrowing down.. Falling growth rates is necessary to mating stability as the base value of economy grows.

To the lay man this looks as India is loosing but the fact is far from it , as convenient it may seem to put (PPP)per capita figures the IMF still calculated India's economy crossing the 4 trillion mark. China is at around 10 trillion+.

Another Fact that needs to be stated here is that India went bankrupt in 1992.so u can say Indian economy grew from there ' with "0" base value and a deficit tht India is still paying Annually no reduced to 4%gdp .
Contemplating the trend China is no where close to the burst trajectory India achieved...nevertheless the question is can India sustain it.

Wake up indians in this forum you are just not in our league

In "your league" huh. Still, "your league" left your best buddies like North korea and pakistan at the mercy of IMF and world bank.

The poor India is helping neighbours like Bangladesh, Srilanka, Bhutan, etc.

 

[sanibhagwan]

Good response to all those troll threads started by Indians.

So, you are in a way cognizant of the fact that this is nothing but a troll thread started by a fellow "Chinese"

They have no right to lecture others on poverty, when they are literally at the very bottom of the world

True.

Let me post that question again.

Why is that rich "China" not able to help her best buddies Pakistan and North korea and leaving them at the mecry of World bank and IMF?

When the poor India on the other hand was able to help its neighbours like Bangladesh, Nepal, Bhutan, Srilanka, etc

 

[Chinese-Dragon]

Go to the Bangladesh subforum here, and see how much they love you.

All India's neighbors are turning to China, except maybe Bhutan.

P.S. China is not rich at all. Maybe the cities like HK/Beijing/Shanghai are wealthy, but the per capita income for China as a whole, is still very low.

 

[aakash_2410]

but according to indians they will overtake china in 2015 but data in this show the gap is getting wider not narrower . why?

How is gap getting wider?? You're Chinese you're supposed to be good at maths! The gap is the same but just decreased slightly.

That dosn't still answer my primary question.

Why is that rich "China" not able to help her best buddies Pakistan and North korea and leaving them at the mecry of World bank and IMF?

China with 4 times the GDP of India, having better relationship with "all of india's neighbors except may be butan" could have helped their long time ally Pakistan from going to IMF time and again.

Bangladesh which hates India and has better relationship with China was still left to get $1 billion soft loan from Poor India.

Because it is better to let people stand on their own feet.

Rather than to keep them on crutches, by giving out easy money.

Just ask the Pakistani people, who they prefer... China, USA, or India?
