nemesis8u:Actually NOTHING indicate India was once richer than China. Such view is incorrect to reality, even when both country were empire. Any type of gov't can be compared. Be it monarchical democracy vs democracy or communism vs democracy. Any gov't can be compared thru the lens of economic history. GOVERMENT that focus on human capital, i mean placing more interest in manufacturing actually help economy grow faster. That may surely be China key to success ( industrial sector of China is similar to Germany)China has pull millions of her citizens out of poverty faster than many nation in the world. India inability to invest in major area like africa may be the real reality of the set back. That is Heath and education. This two sectors play a larger role in China development while the manufacturing base speed up the growth. |

Mkenya2019:u're confusing either urself or me here, I've checked my history properly, u still made me check one of my books "dealing with china" by Henry Paulson n there was no where it indicated that China had a two-child policy before d one-child policy. Yes demographics alone doesn't explain everything but it's one of key factor - before you go to macro-economic policies and other socio-political issues.demography affects only the socio-economic aspect of a country, if harnessed properly, its not really a burden on macro-economic. I can give you example of kenya - kenya had same gdp with asian tigers at independence in 1960s - but asian tigers had different demographics - Kenya grew on average nearly 7-8% until oil crisis in post Arab-Isreal war in late 70s & later global oil crisis of 80s (nigeria enjoyed a boom time as everyone else gnashed their teeth) - about the same rate South Korea or Taiwan or Singapore or Malaysia - but while they grew wealthier - we were growing poorer. We were growing but per capita was going down because we also had actually the world fastest population growth - with our women getting on average 8 Kids - most in my village had 13-14 kids per woman and many were polygamous - so 1 man would gather for like 20 or 30 kids!.Kenya didn't do 10% of what asian tigers did in d 60s-90s. Kenya probably were exporting nothing but agricultural products while the Asian tigers were industrializing and building human capacity with massive infrastructures. Most african countries were still crawling when d ancient tigers were building electronics and building their maritime sector. It has nothing to do with ur demography but technological advancement of the Asian tigers. In fact, d only thing u did was to control ur pop. By late 70s and 80s - it became obvious that we weren't going anywhere. All the individual and nation wealth were going to provide food, education, health care and basic needs for all the kids. There was hardly anything left at family level to save or invest. The same with gov - gov had to keep building new schools that were never enough, employ teachers, build dispensaries that were never enough, and we were basically in rat race. kenya population had grown from 6M at independence in 1963 to nearly 20M in 1983! And by the turn of the century we were 30M!ok So even though for two decades we did nearly everything the Asian tigers were doing - we became poorer and poorer.no, u didn't.... if u had done, u wouldn't be where u are today. Luckly for Kenya, we also began to take population control seriously, and now we are down to about 3 kids per woman, India are nearing 2 (in SSA only the likes of rsa/botswana/namibia have done it), and we are starting to see schools close because of lack of kids! People are now able to feed their kids better and have enough to save & invest, there are more workers, there are more taxes for gov to build infrastructure and the economy is growing at 6% (probably higher if we aggressively re-based like Ghana).ok, good for u. Yes other factors are important but nothing is more important for me than demography. The most important resource in the world is Human Capital - you can plan everything but it will come to naught if you don't plan human capital.yeah, demography may be more important to u but not me... its just our diff perspective cos u only develop human capital through education and health n not child policy. I can tell you for free - Nigeria is going nowhere - until it tames the north Nigerians breeding like rabbits.thanks for the advice. The cause of their breeding like rabbits is majorly dawn to illiteracy n poverty of that region, if we can achieve the zero tolerance for Out-of-school Children and have semi-automated manufacturing industries over there, Nigeria will soar higher. #Shalom. |

theenchanter: Lol, the bolded doesn't change the fact that Indians were richer than the Chinese even from the sixties up to the 80s.India's per capita was higher than China's though China's GDP grew more. It's like saying Ethiopia is richer than South Africa or Nigeria because Ethiopia's GDP is currently growing at around 8% and South Africa (>1%) and Nigeria (2.3%) . China's population growth rate in the 60s to around 1980 was higher than India's, does that not explain why China was poorer than India around that era despite the fact that India's population was slightly lower? Do you now see that high birth rate or even average birth rate is detrimental for countries with large populations as we have said here? If India had implemented the one child policy too, even by 1990,the effects would have started lifting India to China's level by now. Don't forget India had access to western style education which encourages innovation and entrepreneurship a lot. This helped India to some extent. But demography, my man,continued to hold India back.Even the Indians here accepted that. theenchanter:No,man. China liberalised its economy and came with the one child policy in the 70s and by the 90s the effects were there for all to see.That's about 20years. India started its economic liberalization in 1991 and minus a one child policy,and the country is still very poor compared to its mates. That's almost 30years after! What made it work for China in 20years and work less for India in 30 years? Demography again. Smaller families when educated do well on average than large families with average education occasioned by family size. theenchanter:Even the Indians know they are poor compared to several Asian and African countries. And yes,5% extreme poverty is high for a country of India's status. Compare that to China's. theenchanter:But do you agree there can be literacy without proper education? A good educational system goes beyond literacy rate alone. I think this is a mistake many are just discovering in Nigeria. You can produce many graduates and people who can read but lack proper education. Such people are labelled functional illiterates. Zimbabwe's literacy rate is higher than Turkey's or about the same.What has Zimbabwe done with it? Look at the effects of Atatürk's reform of Turkey's education in the economy of Turkey.An education that does not encourage entrepreneurship and advance technology is just basic and not very useful. That's why having high literacy rate does not guarantee development. There are many instances. theenchanter:Greying population is a problem but far less of a problem than over population. |

vaxx: Lol what r u , a indologist ? if yes a might poor one at that , if no then better not make foolish claims like the following NOTHING indicate India was once richer than China. Such view is incorrect to reality, even when both country were empire. It seems u have a compulsive bias towards India , anyways none of my business , ur problem. According to Western researchers India was the richest country from 1 AD onwards. Later India and China held the top position alternatively for different periods of time till 1700 , when India started its decline ,reaching its lowest position during British rule. Google why India was termed as the GOLDEN BIRD by the Arabs and the Europeans. Also Google why the Europeans mounted countless expeditions for the sole purpose of finding a trade route to India Also Google why the natives of the new world ( Americas ) got named as Indians mistakenly. Too much ado about Indians then don't u think , nobody seemed so excited about finding China then. 2 Likes

nemesis8u:You really appear as indologist not me. At least you mention more about India and you seems to assumed I am not aware.... If western report is your factual point of information and not objective report, i must say I consider your indologist knowledge a disappointment. You may need to know and learn eonomical history them..ming dynasty alone SHOULD tell you how economical viable was China and how important was she then to the global economy. And you may also need to factor time value of money. If ming empire is to be valued by today MONEY. How much will her Gdp worth? And let me add more to your convolution of report against world history, There is is dynasty in China called Qing Dynasty . The empire was so rich that she has to paid the British Empire 21 million dollars and that was not an end, and during the series of colonial wars waged by the West like france, Russian Empire, along with Germany, Austria-Hungary, Japan, Italy even the United States to China, the Qing Emperor paid millions of dollar then. India will find this difficult to do. mistaking and replacing information when not needed or request happens to be your favourite. Why do you live other info unanswered? |
