Is it safe to say that China is at least 30 years ahead of India?

Maybe I should Poka Yoke and Nemawashi my writings as well. đđ
Thanks for the request Nagarajan Sir. Sorry for the delay, it is tax filing time.
Not the distant unheard of thunder from climes and places, thousands of miles away.
In my experience, British people are fat, ugly and arrogant. Why is it and can it be changed?
Iâve heard this proverb before: Fools build Houses and Wise Men live in them.
Malls and Cineplexes in the US are dying⊠and descrepit (Thank you Amazon and Netfix) ⊠So experience wise, you folks have it good. đđđ
China did that and still does that too. And I canât understand complaints by the US and Russians here.

Give yourselves a round of applause. đđđ
Now, it is an experience that is just as good or not as good as any Bank Office in the US or China or any where else.
So, here is my proposition.

Beyond that how logical would it be for one to pick a number based on the number of trips, the Planet Earth makes around the Sun?
That is all that matters really.
To Indians, Crab Apples are wild apples that are extremely bitter, but are used to make Apple Cider- an alcoholic beverage, much safer to drink, than polluted water, back in the day.
If freedom of speech is absolute, how come it's not applied for private spaces and for the Internet?
So what Iâm suggesting is that rather than constantly comparing and tearing oneâs clothes in agony, employ what the Japanese call âNemawashiâ and Poka Yoke
Peace and good luck to all.
How long would it take for âVishwa Parihasa â to catch up with âDung Po Pewâ.
India has a space program that seeks to reap military as well as civilian benefits in this so-called race which there is none.
Not true in many other areas of the country. đ
But is this what we want to emulate? I donât know the answer to that?
Some Examples
Let us assume that the Polity called âDung Poo Pew â is ahead of the Polity called âVishwa Parihasaâ in some mythical race.
There is no shame, if one wants to repeat the technology, that was developed by the pioneers such as Russia and the US. The guide book and protocols are all there to emulate (Copy).
I can not sleep. what is the problem?

Hospitals
Nemawashi: Small incremental improvements, that make your daily experiences better in whatever âEcosystemâ, you have to interact with.
Any suitor, who wanted to win speedy Atalantaâs hand would have to beat her in a race and if they lose, they would lose their heads.
Excellent staff from all over India. Amazing competence and professionalism shown by all from Doctors to Nurses to technicians, even the lift staff. đđđ

What's the gayest thing you have experienced on an only boys sleepover?
Airports: ECO-SYSTEM.
I land at Hyderabad or Bangalore Airports. The airports are spotless, well maintained, orderly and the people follow all the rules, the security is run smoothly like clockwork. The Uber and Taxi System is excellent and smoothly run. So is the Baggage Carousel, Immigration, Customs, etc. etc. WOW!
You were âWaiting for your âDoughâ
The model that prompts such a question is based on a âCircus Maximusâ model in which Chariot races were run in ancient Rome, where Individual Nations in this example, are run like Chariots. Some are ahead, while some are behind and we are all spectators here.
Again, in any urban setting in India, the Malls are an eco-system as good as any experience in China.
Also, what does âAheadâ and âBehindâ really mean?
Banks
Coming back to Greek Philosophy this time.
These Airports are an Ecosystem, where Iâm far more âcomfortableâ and have a more âpleasurable experienceâ than at La Guardia Airport or JFK Airport in New York $hitty. (misspelled intentionally).
Another Eco System, where you donât have to apologize. đđđ
Hippomenes won the hand in marriage of Atalanta following a running race by distracting her by tossing âgolden applesâ whenever, he thought, she was gaining on him.
The other factor is TIME. This is where the paradox comes in.
And the plummeting birth rate in China and the aversion to marriage in China and even sex, among the young is increasing exponentially, seems to point to that.
AQI (Air Quality Index) Delhi and Beijing⊠stinks to high heavens. Equivalent to smoking two packs of cigarettes/day even for the non-smoker.
There is the Greek Philosopher Zenoâs paradox.
Before Desi eyes go somber and tearful, let me explain.
So no harm for Indians to âcopyâ the technology obtained by sweat and tears and expense of billions of dollars or rubles over decades by the big Two.
I donât know. I know that if I were young, my sex drive would plummet, Viagra or not.
Would that be logical? Yes!
Space race- Technology in general.
What is so magical about 30?
What is it that you folks wants to âCatch upâ here??? Just asking not telling.
Zenoâs answer: NEVER.đ«
Donât constantly engage in below the navel gazing, if you know what I mean and most of all Donât Complain; or at least not so much.
Give yourself an applause here. đđđ
Many lost their heads, as they looked behind to see if Atalanta was gaining on them . Hippomenes was given a head start by Atalanta.
Donât compare, Donât Complain.
China is a polity; India is a polity. So far so good.
Instead of giving GDP numbers, GDP/Capita and all those Statistics to make you feel good or bad, I decided to answer Nagarajan Sirâs question in the form of a long meandering discourse.
What is the experience of an ordinary salaried family to living in this bee-hive?
Hippomenes distracting the speedy Atalanta to win the race and also her hand in marriage
Your Corner D-Marts gave me the same âexperienceâ as any that I had in Japan, China or Korea.
It is the same situation, when I learn Newtonâs Laws or Calculus. I can freely learn it without breaking much of a sweat. Use some elseâs Gyanodayam for literally free.
High rise in China below:
This begs the question.
Poka Yoke: Make the design of the systems, so that even âvillage idiotsâ (there are many) wonât be able to make things worse in the Eco-system and ruin your experiences.
Housing: When I land in Hyderabad and travel through Cyber City, I feel like Iâm in China.
Anyone, who looks behind to see whoâs on their heel. will befall the same fate as all the suitors of the lovely Atalanta in Greek Mythology, who was the fastest runner in the world.
I will even wager one of my shares in JD. Com ( a Chinese MNC) that most Chinese are not even bothered to see, if India is âlaggingâ behind them.
They, in turn, have eyes only for the Good Ole USA.
I generally donât place a time scale on who is ahead or who is behind and by how many years in this âGame of Nationsâ.
Another Example from Greek Mythology: Hippomenes and Atalanta race. [This is a warning to my country, the USA, really]
Now for some areas of discomfort.
And it does not matter, if the technology was invented in Timbuktoo, Africa. Copy Paste, Repeat.
D-Marts etc.
So, if China were at all worried, like Hippomenes, that India would overtake them in this âraceâ that they are not worried about, then they will like Hippomenes toss some thorny crab apples* to distract the nattering classes in India.
This paradox argues that Viswa Parihasa, a swifter than Dung runner, can never overtake the slower Dung Poo Pew, who has a head start by the way, because by the time Viswa Parihasa reaches the Dung's starting point, Dung will have moved forward, and Viswa must then catch up to that new position, repeating this process⊠ad infinitum.
Any Bank in an urban setting, used to be the equivalent of the famous play by Samuel Becket âWaiting for Godotâ, except back then in India, decades ago.
Look instead at Pockets of Comfort created within your immediate environs.
Traffic on Roads. Well, experiences in India. đ
ECOSYSTEMS where the citizens experiences need to improve.
Never understood what it meant, but now in the winter of my years, I now realize what that means. đ
Look at each individual Eco-system within your immediate environs, that works in your land, in your local Area and if you are not discomfited, then all is fine. âExperienceâ is the key here.
Zeno of Elea, born c. 495 BCâdied c. 430 BC
Brevity is the soul of wit, but what can I say⊠Verbosity is the soul of a Twit. And I admit to being Verbose.
Well for starters, âVishwa Parihasa â must run at a âfasterâ pace than âDung Po Pew â.
Afterall, Whatsapp, FB, mobile smart phones, have all helped us interact as well as avoid pesky and nosy neighbors and relatives.
Viswa Parihasa and Dung Poo Pew Parodox per Zeno
Petty Corruption. My mainland Chinese American friends, who travel back and forth to China assure me that petty Corruption is well and alive in China and the ranking by Transparency International, which monitors âperception of corruptionâ in nations, ranks both India and China about equal. So that seems about right. đ
But I thought, I would include it just for kicks and clicks. đ
This so-called race is in my opinion, a Phantasm, that only exists in peopleâs mind and I would wager that this Phantasm chiefly exists, it seems in India- which is looking at China with a mixture of envy and jealousy.
Here it is an Eco-system where both Dung and Vishwa seem to be competing for the race to the bottom of the well. đ
Not many will agree with Zeno, because he is a Mlechha Yavana Barbarian.đđafter all.
