Global Times says instead of opening shops in India, Chinese firms should set up their units in China.

BEIJING:  The call for boycott of Chinese goods on Indian social media is "rabble rousing" as Indian products cannot compete with those of China, the state-owned media said on Wednesday.

In an acerbic op-ed, state-run Global Times says New Delhi can only "bark" and do nothing about the growing trade deficit between two countries.
 

 

China's continued opposition to India's effort to declare Pakistan-based terrorists as international terrorists has angered many Indians who have called for a boycott of Chinese products.

It described Prime Minster Narendra Modi's pet project "Make in India" as "impractical".

The daily warned Chinese companies not to invest in India as it would be "suicidal" to put money in a country where corruption is high and the workforce is not hard working.

"There has been a lot of talk recently in the Indian media as well as on social media about boycotting Chinese products. It's just rabble rousing," it said.

"Indian manufacturing cannot compete at all with Chinese products, for various reasons."

The daily said that India was to yet build roads and highways and had chronic shortage of power and water supply.

"Worst of all, corruption is highly prevalent from top to bottom in every single government department."

It slammed India for courting the US.

"The US is no one's friend. The Americans are just indulging India in order to contain China, as the US is jealous of China's development and global power.

"India has enough money but the majority of it is concentrated with politicians, bureaucrats and a few crony capitalists. Indian elites don't want to spend funds available in the country, which in reality is the taxpayers' money but is utilized by the Indian establishment for its own personal consumption.

"Because of this, Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi has started impractical schemes like 'Make in India'. The reason is that the Indian establishment wants foreign companies to invest in the country.

"It would be completely suicidal for Chinese companies to put their money in India by starting manufacturing projects there. The labour class in India is not very hard working or efficient," it argued.

The daily said that instead of opening shops in India, Chinese companies should set up their manufacturing units in China.

The world's third-largest smartphone maker, Huawei, opened its manufacturing unit in India last month.

"In any case, Indian businessmen flock to China in large numbers to buy products from China and sell them in India. This model suits China, so why disturb it by going and wasting money setting up manufacturing facilities in India?

"Let the Indian authorities bark about the growing trade deficit with China. The fact of the matter is they cannot do anything about it."

yup , when it comes to manufacturing i'm pretty sure we don't stand a chance when compared to china ..... forget about the cheap substandard stuff that china dumps in india , I'm talking about the products that people around the world use on a daily basis ...

[VizagRocks]

Lol. Chinese fcukers.

Chinese products are not 'better' than Indian products, any more than Chinese language can be thought of as being better than our multiple languages.

They only have the advantage of dense manufacturing networks, excellent infra, established supply chain, and an experienced workforce.

India can build it too. In fact, it does have a decent supply chain in garments business. Time to diversify.

India is behind China in manufacturing maturity, and India doesn't have the kind of domestic protection policies that China does.

Lol about corruption. India is definitely not as corrupt as China. Having earned majority of my fortune trading with China, I have to laugh at this assertion. India is just pulled at different directions by different people, and the power is centralized at the state level, which is the problem.

Indians are not lazy workers. They just are more aware of their rights, because they have the opportunity to organize politically and fight for their rights.

They are not 'china' products. They are designed in the US, and manufactured in China. Okay there are some good homegrown  ones like Huawei, and some chip design companies.

most chinese products are substandard. Their google, twitter, uber, are all crap.

But one has to agree with some parts of the article. That the Indian elite is complete crap. The elite who leech on public money, and then encourage people to speak out against the oppressed section by talking about reservation.

[VizagRocks]

Some Indian should write an article laughing at the Chinese idiots. idiots who work 'hard' so that every Indian can have a mobile phone in his hand

Who cares if Chinese want to undercut everyone, and hurt their own people in the process. Let them boast about it.

An economy with a higher per capita gdp, serving lower sections of an economy with a much lower per capita gdp is not a good thing at all.

wonder where these losers learn their economics from. Technically, India is looting China, and the idiots are bragging about it.

then say we lack in manufacturing - not in standards. we dont have capacity to manufacture as of now..

[Variety_Pullayya]

manufacturing requires lot of natural resources and causes lot of pollution. india should just work on alternative sources. IT and services are doing good. space and satellite sector is doing good. maybe should concentrate on weapons and aircrafts.

[bindazking]

true.. Almost everyone of us use chinese products, but we dont want our friends to use them because you want to ban chinese products for others not for urself.
