I'm afraid that too many Chinese are too naive to the true intentions of Indians; those of us in the West who have encountered these 'Jai Hind types either online or offline know how prudent it is not to give strength to a jealous, inferiority complex laden neighbour to the south west. Whether it's valid or not, India today defines itself as part of the west and therefore party to the movement seeking to destroy and enslave China.
Maybe it's not known to the common Chinese today (or even most of the world) but when Britain was exiting it's Indian colony, the original plan was to have a single loyal country in the subcontinent to counterbalance China. The Brahmin elites in north India were given the reigns (because they mimicked and were/are essentially brown versions of British colonialists) and majority of the subjects originally accepted this plan... until this man showed up in the 1930's:

Fast forward a few years into the early 1940's and a visiting British Prime Minister exclaims: a poet has destroyed our dream of a united India. Thereafter, Pakistan and Bangladesh were carved out of that envisaged united India. Since then, India has been preoccupied indefinitely with Pakistan.

I think the VCP knows well enough that the US is trying to use them as "condoms" again. Take western money while having no intention to be useful idiots.

Viets hates China for various reasons including it help bring the VCP in power, thousand year of "colonization", and border/scs conflicts. China and Vietnam can resolve the border conflict and the other resentment will melt away with cross border trade and peaceful coexistence.

The west doesn't get it. It's not that China stuff is cheap. It's cheap and it's gets way more value per buck than their western counterparts.

It's not even that. The Chinese drones are simply better.

Do you hear any one hype up Skydio? No, because their products are not even as good as Autel (who in turn isn't even as good as DJI)
Autel is one of the top sellers in Ukraine.

Skydio is a third-rate manufacturer propped up by fat government contracts helped by lobbyists/corruption

Brendan Groves is the Vice President of Regulatory and Policy Affairs at Skydio, the largest U.S. drone manufacturer and world leader in autonomous flight

VP job as a reward for this

He also led DOJ’s drone program and helped to shape national policy on drones as a member of the FAA’s Executive Committee on UAS. Brendan played a central leadership role in the effort to counter the threat posed by malicious drones, spearheading the development and passage of legislation—known as the Preventing Emerging Threats Act—authorizing federal law enforcement officials to detect and disrupt drone threats nationwide.

Jai Hinds boasting again when they haven't even started anything.

Why must EV companies invest so much and follow India's strict rules when India's rules can be bent at anytime? Is India that attractive of a market to warrant such investment and risks? How lucrative actually is the Indian market? Where are there supply chains in India?



India's magic bullet is Software and IT again? Jai Hinds and Westerners have been banging on that point for decades already and where is India today? It's not like Indian IT and software are that great anyway. Not too long ago, an Indian firm was outsourced by Boeing to write the codes for the 737 Max planes. We all knew what happened to those planes. Outsourcing programming to India can be deadly.

Is China not competitive in IT and software? What about Wechat, Alibaba, Bytedance, Harmony OS, etc? In addition to the software developed and used by DJI, BYD, etc? Where are India's super world famous softwares and apps?


LoL! What a load of Jai Hind stupidity! Who cares how recognized Indian motor companies are compared to Chinese ones. Sure Tata and Mahindra were already known before Geely and BYD popped up. But who are more famous now? Was Tata ever a competitor to Toyota, GMC, Hyundai, Mercedes Benz, Tesla, etc? Just because Tata has Modi to carry it, it already thinks that it can conquer the world. It's classic Jai Hind mentality. This is the very thing that destroys competitiveness.

Good. I like Jai Hind articles like this. It helps to keep India happy, complacent, and deluded. More of the same please.
These are good brands. They make JV with foriegn brands like China. This means they are unironically better than Japan.

Why do these people pretend some major and mandatory spending categories are irrelevant LOL. Especially that Paul Krugman guy excludes cars, shelter, energy and food. They also don't do the same for China or Russia. Biden-era democrat media spent last 4 years twisting definitions to have people believe Biden was economically successful. By the way didn't inflation mean STRONG consumer sentiment according to these pundits?

Note: The guy was the chief economist of Biden when he was vice to Obama.
