Modi’s Failed Economic Policies: Conversation w/Jayant Bhandari! Part 2

[@jamesho8820]

Jayant speaks the truth. I have been to India on several occasions and just returned from several weeks in China. The differences between the 2 countries are exactly as he has described. It's as if you were visiting 2 different planets. The level of poverty, disorder, filth, pollution and lack of dependable infrasctructure is breathtaking in India. China in contradistinction, continues to be astounding. Infrastructure, organization, overall order and improving environment due to adoption of EV vehicles are amazing. It is perplexing when one hears that the US and the West continues to claim that India is the next China, which they also claim is in rapid decline. I question whether or not these parties have actually spent time in either of these countries. There is a strong desire to witness the failure of China. In the West's dreams!

In truth, it is all rubbish. His perspective is so skewed. He only knows one or two things about each topic and does not know most of it and keeps blabbering. He only knows, 1% or 2% of the things. Even in regards to Nepal, it would take a long time to explain its relation with India and here the guy gives one or two sweeping statements and it is done. In everything, he just gives 1 or 2 generalized statements and extrapolates it to the rest of India. There are thousands of bridges being built in India and you just showed one clip where it fell down, it happens in construction, and you say this is how they build bridges in India. i can show you clips of new construction falling down in China too.

their moon landing last yr was 3rd attempt n done with help of foreign space experts. They didnt land on the moon south pole but lied they did. Also their spacecraft went dead within hrs after landing. Why they want to lie about landing on the south pole for ? Must be for showing off as landing on south pole region has more prestige due to the higher technical difficulties of landing there than outside of it. They could fool the world in general but not foreign space agencies who would know they didnt actually landed in south pole region.. In fact ,China is the lst n only country in the world to have successfully gone to the moon south pole [2019] as well as to the far dark side of the moon [2020] Both were the lst time attempts by China too. It is technically as difficult if not more to land on far side of the moon as it is on the south pole. Moreover , China unmanned moon mission to the south pole was a 2 way return journey and could collect hundreds tons of soil back to earth for research. India unmanned moon mission was only made for one way journey

Forget it. India will remained India. It was a 32 Kingdom subcontinent with 470 regions, districts ruled by Maharajah, Kings, etc with more 200 spoken and written languages. India is in fact a fragmented nation today. Created by Mahatma Gandhi as a loosely bind union agreement at the last minute with a sworn promise for them to depart if they wished to in order to gain independence. Today Indian Government openly reneged on this agreement and even introduced bills to alter the signed agreement e.g. Kashmir. Many states are crying for separation today e.g. Manipur, Khalistani, Nagaland, Bodoland, etc. You can denied history but we are not Indians and we know the real truth. We also know India fabricated her economy. Singapore late PM Lee KY was the first to speak on this. A 32 kingdom subcontinent linked by the British built Indian Railway.

There is no real benefit to be gained by showing off and being provocative. It will only breed more hatred. It is a pity that there are too few calm Indians and too few Indians who stay awake.

I have never ever met a Muslim individual who has the moral courage to speak weaknesses of Islam even if its truth. Like wise, I have never met an Indian person who has the moral courage to admit India's flaws even if it's truth. And today, when I saw Jayant speaking coolly, rationally and with powerful reasoning; delayering the weaknesses and hypocrisies of Indian nation and society, I was left speechless. Hats off to Jayant, this guy loves India, his ancestral land. But that does not stop him from admitting and speaking with so much moral conviction and courage, the weaknesses and challenges to India today. An intellectual masterpiece from Jayant.

David! Thank you so much for mentioning about how Bhutan has become an unsafe of geopolitical influence of India. Because of People like you ,we can see the fact and truth of current situation in Bhutan. Otherwise most leaders of Bhutan payed out by India and they could do nothing about it . Thank you again

[@thecomment9489]

Bhutan would be much better off by signing a peace treaty with the People's Republic and emulating the Chinese growth model to uplift their masses out of poverty. And they should close their border with India and have an open border with China because that will bring in wealthy Chinese tourists and who are also more well behaved than the unruly Indian tourists.

Yes and in few years time Guangdong will likely have more GDP than all of India. It could be because Guangdong province has very highly intelligent and competent public officials who are committed to work for the betterment of their province and country.

There is an old saying in China: courage comes after shame. India should get rid of the sugar-coated bullets made by the West to India, stop making trouble for China, and truly realize its own shortcomings. For India, only China is the biggest driving force for India's development. China has very rich experience in peaceful development, while the West only relies on colonial plunder to get rich.

[@李小白-x4v]

@Ronnie1621 They are all Chinese territory, just like New Mexico and Hawaii are American territory. Long before the establishment of international law, China fully followed the rules set after World War II, no matter what standards you judge. India and the United States officially fully agree with China's territorial claims, which is the most basic treaty for the establishment of diplomatic relations between India and the United States and China, and is written in the document on the establishment of diplomatic relations between the two countries. If you don't understand the rules of how the world works, it is recommended that you get more education to improve your knowledge.

If you judge India by its elites, you will believe it's doing well. But these people make up less than 2% of the 1.3bn people. To judge the real India, go to the slums of Kolkata, Delhi, Mumbai, Hyderabad, Bengaluru, etc. Go to villages like Gangnauli and talk to the common people. Talk to the ethnic minorities and low caste people like the Gonds, Nagas, the oppressed Muslims and Christians, the millions consigned as Dalits. Then you will find tge real India. The India of 98% of the population.

[@chiranjeevmehra9860]

Majority of Indians are only obsessed with religion which is the only reason they vote for Modi because modi successfully keeps them in a smokescreen that says “Hindus are in danger from Muslims”, India as we all know is a civilization state like China but sadly the citizens are focussed more on fantasizing the civilization and are aroused by the past glory rather than focussing on the real world issues like economic growth, employment, infrastructure etc unlike China. The situation isn’t going to change until the party that liberalized the Indian economy back in the 90s come back in power and handle the mess Modi has created. Harsh truth for the Indian nationalists but it is what it is! I myself fell for this trap of false economical glory and came back to India to start a business but sadly am planning my return to the west as their is no scope of survival of any business in India which is now owned by a few oligarchs fully or partially. And these oligarchs are close friends with Modi.

That's not the correct reading of the Indian mindset. Majority of Indians are not obsessed with religion but with false sense of supremacy and ego boost and religion provides one channel for that.

India should fix it's internal social and economic problems rather than trying to act as a super power in world affairs.

[@thecomment9489]

Very true. But that requires high IQ public officials running the show and not the low IQ and subnormal intelligence ones. And also does doesn't give big ego boost and takes time to uplift the masses. So better route they have found is to project this fake image of becoming a superpower and demanding UNSC seat. If there is any expansion of UNSC the most suitable candidates may be Brazil (South America), South Africa and Egypt (Africa) and Indonesia (Asia and Asia-Pacific). Best would be to make economic criteria to qualify for membership so that all those wanting the UNSC seat first work for the betterment of their masses like a country with at least 10,000 dollars per capita GDP should be considered for membership.
