      Quite right, actually it's wierd to see a foreigner comparing China and India from a Chinese perception, I can understand comparasion from China with east or southeast Asia, but with India, it's not commmon in my mind. So I think the question should be from an Indian. We hope India a good luck。

      Italy and Spain has ghettos.
      America is becoming worse than India day by day.
      China is stupid if it compares itself with America.

    India and China are two good examples of their two different political systems. The hard truth is that if China had chosen the same path as India did in the 1940s, the US would not have to worry about China today... China just showed how far and how quickly you can go with a nationwide, century-long considerate planning and teamwork.

      America is getting worse than India and China is already better than America. Therefore it doesn't make sense comparing China with America. Perhaps take a look at the American cities and towns. Homelessness, drug addicts, gun violence. Even India with its slums is a better place because the poor atleast go to school unlike the homless of America.
      Indian subways are cleaner than American subways.
      Moreover you must properly hear what Ken said in this video at the beginning. He said clearly that India's economy is atleast growing rapidly and by 25-30 years India will become decent country and be nearly on the same footing as China currently is because India is slowly following China's development model. Moreover Ken has said he would next time visit more parts of India and show them. So wait!
      Ken has admitted that while India is offcourse behind China but still he enjoyed in India and liked that country. Ken is a true and honest vlogger at heart I love his channel.

    Indians need to come out from there ancestral box and think and act like 21st century country and thinking but unfortunately india is still stuck in cast, religion and out dated customs....But Yes india has developed in so many sectors since 1947 that's is also reality..

    I am quite old and have witnessed the entire development of China. China achieved what it has today because several generations genuinely recognized their shortcomings and learned from the West with a very humble attitude. Even today, if you point out areas where China hasn't done well, many Chinese people will agree with you and commend you, as many still lack confidence. However, Indians are too proud, and this is actually detrimental to India.

    The Chinese have never regarded India as a rival. In fact, the Chinese always compare themselves with the strongest aspects of other countries and regions in the world. For example, they compare artificial intelligence, scientific research, education, and military affairs with the United States; compare electronics and semiconductor with Japan; compare LNG ships with South Korea; compare automobiles with Germany; compare aircraft and nuclear power with France; compare chip manufacturing with Taiwan; and compare city governance with Singapore.

      In the field of pharmacy and vaccine production India is far ahead of many European countries and is quite comparable to China.
      Not only vaccines, the list goes on- Iron and Steel industry, packaged food industry, space research programme, marine research, number of scientific research outputs ( India ranks 5th while China ranks 2nd) not a huge difference I guess.

    I am Chinese and have lived and worked in Germany and France for over ten years. Most parts of China are no longer inferior to Europe, and the service in China is better. The laziness and irresponsibility of Europeans can be quite shocking. What I find most remarkable is that China's development is relatively even. There isn't a significant difference between a city with a population of 20 million and one with a population of 2 million. This is very difficult for such a large country with a population of 1.4 billion. Unlike Europe, where many places feel like they belong to another world. As for India, I have never been there, so I can't comment on it.
    As for ideologies like freedom and democracy, those are toys for politicians. As an ordinary citizen, you don't really feel any difference in daily life. In Europe, I don't feel particularly free; in fact, I often don't dare to go out at night. In China, I don't feel a lack of freedom either, and no one disturbs my life. When the government makes mistakes or when there is unfairness and corruption, it still becomes headline news.

    My 2 cents. I think the biggest difference between the two countries is people's mindset. Through so many ups and downs, Chinese people, especially the Chinese leaders, are accustomed to facing big challeges and difficulties, and even eargerly looking forward to, revolutionary changes and disruptive reforms. Meanwhile in India, national independence was earned through non-voilent and noncooperation movements, changes are usually happening in a more gradual, slow and passive way, because India hasn't faced big crisis, violent revolutions and radical reforms in its recent history. People rarely want to get out of their comfort zone, because they don't have to. The mindset of the Indian people is more about opportunistic thinking than strategic thinking, and too much diversity, conflicting interests and chaotic democracy lead to low efficiency and shortsight (sometimes self-defeating) decisions.

    EMMMM, some people in the comment area say that India is more "democratic".
    Here I want to ask a few questions. Is only the "Western Election System" of democracy. All other forms of government forms are "dictatorship"?
    Is the "Western Election System" process or result? Is it a tool for getting happiness and freedom, or is it as long as there are elections?
    There is also a classic question, if you are sick. Go to the hospital to find a professional doctor for you. Still running to the square, let everyone choose someone who doesn't hate it for you?
    So why should a country be given to an actor, or an internet celebrity, or even a businessman to manage it? Just because most people who vote do not hate them?
    Western governments and media, including India, are criticizing that China is not "democracy." It is a centralized society.
    But they never mentioned that China actually practiced "Western Democracy" in 1912. China established Congress in the first year of the Republic of China in 1912. The Western -style national elections and parliamentary systems are implemented, including national representatives and so on.
    However, the result is that China has gained a 25 -year civil war. A large number of warlords are spawned. The well -known warlords are "Yanxishan" he controls Shanxi Province, and "zhangzuolin" he controls the three northeast provinces. "Luyongting" he controlled Guangdong and Guangxi Province. "Tangjirao" he controlled Yunnan Province. "Wangwenhua" he controlled Jiangxi, and so on. China's territory was split by more than ten warlords, and their administrative politics ignored the central government's decree. There is a foreign forces behind each warlord. Through these warlords, the foreign government has continuously seized the interests and rich mineral resources of the Chinese people, and served as dumping and opium dumping as foreign commodities. During this period, because of the uneven distribution of interests of those foreign governments, they would instruct the warlord agents they controlled to launch civil war against each other. As a result, the Chinese people who died reached 4 million people.
    It is like Libya or Syria now. The domestic people held the weapons provided by the foreign government and shouted the slogan of "free democracy" to attack each other and slaughter their own citizens.
    Therefore, don't say that China is not democratic enough.
    We don't want that democracy like that. Those Western governments are just imposing to China's so -called "democratic freedom" just to pack exquisite packaging. We tried it and were almost poisoned.
    What the Western government and the United States want are just a four -point cracking and war, like Ukraine. Unfortunately, Chinese people don't want to. We want to live well and live with dignity.

      @@keli4396 Thank you for your compliments.
      These are just some of my thoughts.
      Many times, for a country, party competition should be controlled within a small range. Party competition should not affect the normal development of the country. In fact, party competition in "Western democracy" is not for "right or wrong". More often, it is "opposition for opposition". Even if the policy you oppose is right, you must oppose it. Just like the British Parliament and the two parties in the United States.
      Many times, even if the policy proposed by the other party is beneficial to the country, the opposition party will fiercely oppose it. After all, it only concerns the position, not right or wrong.
      This makes it so that in the United States and the Western world, there are few things that can make the government agree in recent years. Almost all of them rely on the overwhelming seat advantage or power of the ruling party to implement something.
      Since 2019, from my personal observation, many policies in countries such as Europe and the United States are contradictory and full of opposition. So that the development of the country has stagnated. Many livelihood construction projects have been delayed for many years because of repeated political cancellations or because of the obstruction of the opposition party. There are fewer and fewer compromises and consensuses between political parties, and more and more oppositions and conflicts. Policies are also swinging back and forth, making it difficult for people to make a decision.
      The overall business environment is also getting worse, causing capital to flee to countries with stable policies to build factories. Because capital needs a stable political environment and a stable social environment.
      Unfortunately, Western political parties never reflect on themselves, but only blame each other or throw dirty water on third parties. Or they shirk responsibility.
      I often pay attention to international dynamics, and I can see a lot of political fun on UA-cam. Today, there is a fight in the parliament of this country, and tomorrow, the parliament of that country is attacked by angry people.
      I am not saying that democracy is bad, but that "Western democracy" can no longer keep up with the times. It is solidified and stereotyped, and often manifests dogmatism. Think about it, how many outstanding thinkers and politicians appeared in the West throughout the 20th century.
      And since the 21st century, how many years has it been since the West has had a real thinker? And those standing on the stage are political stars launched by "political talent shows". Either they are so old that they can fall down when walking down the stairs, or they are political fanatics who can only talk nonsense to incite populism and incite opposition. I have to say that this is a tragedy.

      Do you understand why? India was invaded twice- by Mughals and Britishers. Our wealth of 45 trillion dollar was looted by the British. From there we have grown to become the 5th largest economy in a democratic set up with extreme diversity. India’s govt prior to 2014 was in bed with the CCP and had a secret MoU signed. PM Modi is hated by Xi only because he’s developing India, strengthening our global position, not allowing Chinese interference. Xi Jinping is the only world leader who hasn’t congratulated our PM on winning third term.
      For decades now western press has only created negative perceptions of India- BBC, Al-Jazeera, NYT, CNN. India was portrayed as a dirty, poor nation that has nothing to offer. India has world class infra, growing foreign investments, independent foreign policy, growing manufacturing sector, more and more families transitioning to middle class. Who will talk about our achievements of past decade? And then you expect us to tolerate racist bullies?

    @hynoor7254 No offense intended. As a Chinese, I just want to correct a few untruths about China in your words. First: China in 1970 was in the midst of ten years of turmoil during the so-called "Cultural Revolution". It was a gloomy day, and it was not until 1976 that the country entered normalization. And on May 20, 1978, it began to implement the policy of opening up to the outside world. As of 1980, China's total GDP was US$191.1 billion, while India's total GDP at that time was US$186.3 billion. The difference between the two is only US$4.8 billion, but in terms of per capita GDP, India is ahead of China. Second: "If the Chinese government wants to develop a city, it can ask people to evacuate the entire area." Oh my god, are you crazy? Can't you check it online? From the period of reform and opening up until 2023, the renovation of old urban areas requires developers to publicly bid and provide considerable compensation to people in the relocated areas. This is why many people in China have become rich due to demolition. You can Google China’s demolition compensation policy, and it wasn’t until after 2023 that the government banned such large-scale demolitions.

I would definitely recommend some of the festivals. 2 years ago I went and saw some Theyyam festivals in Kerala and it was absolutely out of this world, I can't even describe the atmosphere (the fire theyyams were my favourite). Ranthambore national park is also beautiful and hopefully you would see a tiger. I also loved the vibrancy of Varanasi. I also absolutely loved Leh and Ladakh and the Hemis festival is worth checking out (there are you tube videos of this and theyyam). Kashmir was also beautiful and somewhere that I personally want to spend more time (only managed a few days as wanted to see a couple of festivals in Ladakh). I genuinely find that Indians are the most friendly people that I have come across and even when travelling solo have never really been alone as people like to chat (I would say more so in the North than the South in my experience). I definitely think you should go back and hope you get the India travel bug as much as me.

I really enjoyed my trip there despite the outside temperature was over 40 degrees in May. India has long history which left magnificent architecture to the country. Most of people I met there are very friendly, and I like the Indian cuisines (but I had meals only in the hotels or proper restaurants). To be honest, the hygiene could be improved in some public areas, but overall, I still think it’s a good destination to be visited, and for sure I’ll have my second trip to India if I have any chance. And plz don’t compare India with China, yes we are all developing countries with vast populations and long history, but each country has its unique culture background and way of development, there’s no need to make a comparison.

Even Western countries like Germany, France, UK, US, etc are behind than China in terms of infrastructure. At the end, I can only say that India is a nice country to visit and is a culturally rich country and has so much to offer but there is barely any good infrastructure except less than 1% of places like Gurgaon's Cyberhub, Delhi's Aerocity, Mumbai's BKC, etc.

    I am Chinese but love travelling to India. It is the culture, cuisine, history, diversity, and the like. Often enjoyed my times spent there, mainly on business. Thanks to my university Indian buddies which we had good exchanges about both culture. Regardless China emerging to become a more advance country, I have no doubt India will evolve over time. Out of the last two millenium, China & India dominate the world economy in the first 1,600 years. So pivot back to Asia should not be a surprise at all.

    I am Chinese. Just a friendly advice to our Indian friends. It is understandable to have the desire to have foreigners feel good about your country. Because it makes you feel proud. Especially, for the citizens of countries like India and China etc. who were bullied and exploited in the recent history, and once were a great power. People want to prove that the time has changed, the table has turned. But my Indian friends, it is commendable that India obviously has developed. However, it is still far away from any type "super power". Instead of trying to comparing with other countries, ask yourself what you can do to make this country greater. Lastly, if it makes those Indians,who are obsessed with comparing with China, feel better, I admit, India is unbeatable.

    Most people in the world don't know that India annexed a piece of China in 1951. The area is called South Tibet and became today's so-called Arunachal Pradesh. Here is the timeline of how it happened:
    1912: In the first full year of the Republic of China after the fall of the Qing dynasty, the United States National Geographic Magazine dedicated an issue to China. Accompanying the issue is a large and detailed fold-out map of China. The map clearly shows that Dirang Dzong (德讓宗) and Tawang (達旺) are within the boundary of China.
    1943: British India likely calculated that dealing with the Lhasa government was easier than with the Republic of China's Nationalist Government in extracting land concessions and proposed to the United States to recognize Tibet's right to exchange diplomatic representatives with other powers. The Americans rejected this proposal:
    "The Government of the United States has borne in mind the fact that the Chinese Government has long claimed suzerainty over Tibet and that the Chinese constitution lists Tibet among areas constituting the territory of the Republic of China. This Government has at no time raised a question regarding either of those claims."
    1944: British India annexed Dirang Dzong (德讓宗), a Tibetan-settled area. Dzong means fort in Tibetan. The Chinese Government (the Nationalist Government of the Republic of China, seated in Kunming at the time because of World War II) protested to the British. So did the Tibetan Lhasa government.
    1945: British India intruded into the tribal area of South Tibet.
    February 1947: The Chinese Nationalist Government lodged a complaint with the Indian mission, which was by then newly established in China, on British India's border intrusions into Chinese territory.
    August 1947: Britain left South Asia, and India was created as the successor polity to the departed British. India's creation means that a country that historically did not exist suddenly appears on China's doorstep.
    October 1947: The Tibetan Lhasa Government dispatched a formal request to New Delhi, asking the newly independent Indian Government to withdraw all its predecessors' intrusions into the territory between the McMahon Line and the traditional border beneath the foothills and return a wide swath of territory from Ladakh to Assam, including Sikkim and the Darjeeling district.
    1949: When the defeat of the Nationalist Government in China's civil war was imminent, the Republic of China's ambassador in New Delhi reminded the Indian Government that China did not recognize the McMahon Line and held the Simla Convention invalid.
    October 1949: The CCP (Chinese Communist Party) took control of the mainland, and its civil war rival, the Republic of China, retreated to Taiwan.
    December 1949: India recognized the People's Republic of China as the legitimate government, effectively cutting off the diplomatic channel the Republic of China used to deliver its protests to India.
    February 1951: India annexed Tawang (達旺), the birthplace of the Sixth Dalai Lama and home to the four-hundred-year-old Tawang Monastery. The Tibetan authorities in Lhasa protested but were simply informed by the Indian political officer that India was taking over Tawang. The Tibetans protested again, accusing the Indian Government of 'seizing as its own what did not belong to it.' The Tibetans went on to ask New Delhi to withdraw its forces from Tawang immediately. The protests were ignored. The Republic of China (which had already retreated to Taiwan by then and had no diplomatic relation with India) also vehemently denounced India's territorial travesty. Curiously the CCP (Chinese Communist Party) made no noise.
    1954: India published a new map showing South Tibet as part of India. The map also shows the two neighbors of China, Sikkim and Bhutan, as part of India. Sikkim has been a neighbor of China for many hundreds of years and has enjoyed good relations. In the 18th century, Sikkim was briefly overrun by the Nepalese Gorkhas, and the Sikkim king fled to China seeking help. The then Qianlong emperor dispatched an expedition to Sikkim, expelled the Gorkhas, and restored Sikkim's sovereignty and independence. Sikkim remained unmolested for the rest of its history until it was annexed by India in 1975. Bhutan is another neighbor of China, and their proximity is evident simply by comparing the flags of Bhutan and the Qing dynasty of China.
    January 1959: The CCP (Chinese Communist Party) commented for the first time on the issue of South Tibet when Zhou Enlai, in a letter to Nehru, offered to concede South Tibet to India. However, India rejected the offer, as it also claims Aksai Chin as part of India. Aksai Chin is located in an area that is very hard to access from the Indian side due to difficult terrain. This is evidenced by the fact that China was able to build a road there over two years without India even noticing, and India only became aware of it when reading an article from China describing the construction project. This clearly indicates that India not only has no control over the area but also lacks visual access to the region.
    1960: India started establishing posts (border markers) north of South Tibet (north of the McMahon Line) and proclaiming that it has the right to unilaterally 'improve' the McMahon Line as it sees fit.
    October 1962: After years of warning, China attacked India's position in South Tibet and recovered Tawang shortly. Three weeks later, in a second wave, China recovered the whole of South Tibet.
    November 1962: China unilaterally withdrew back to the north of the McMahon line.
    1975: India annexed Sikkim.
    1987: India made South Tibet a state and renamed it the so-called Arunachal Pradesh. The Republic of China (Taiwan) put out a statement denouncing India. Here is the statement:
    "In regard to the issue of the Indian government's illegal occupation of our country's territory and the establishment of the so-called 'Arunachal Pradesh,' the foreign ministry of the Republic of China issued the following announcement at midnight: India's illegal occupation of our country's territory has been repeatedly stated by the Government of the Republic of China as something it will not recognize. Recently, the Indian Congress unilaterally passed the establishment of 'Arunachal Pradesh' to the south of the so-called McMahon Line. The Indian Government also made it a state. The Government of the Republic of China once again solemnly proclaims that the Government of India intends to legitimize its illegal occupation of Chinese territory. The Government of the Republic of China regards this as illegal, void, and absolutely not recognized."
    2008: With the return of Hong Kong to China, Britain effectively withdrew from its colonial involvement in Asia, and Tibet lost its utility as a potential bargaining chip in British negotiations with China concerning Hong Kong. With no remaining interests in Tibet, Britain could afford to be forthright for once. The British government issued a statement acknowledging China's sovereignty over Tibet (previously recognized as suzerainty, not sovereignty). This statement, endorsed by both the Conservative and Labour parties, is notable for its candor in admitting Britain's past territorial ambitions in Tibet and adopts an almost apologetic tone. Here is an excerpt:
    "...But our position is unusual for one reason of history that has been imported into the present: the anachronism of our formal position on whether Tibet is part of China, and whether in fact we harbour continued designs to see the break-up of China. We do not.​​
    Our ability to get our points across has sometimes been clouded by the position the UK took at the start of the 20th century on the status of Tibet, a position based on the geopolitics of the time. Our recognition of China's "special position" in Tibet developed from the outdated concept of suzerainty. Some have used this to cast doubt on the aims we are pursuing and to claim that we are denying Chinese sovereignty over a large part of its own territory. We have made clear to the Chinese Government, and publicly, that we do not support Tibetan independence. Like every other EU member state, and the United States, we regard Tibet as part of the People's Republic of China. "​​
    2014: A Tibetan Chinese named Nido Tania from Arunachal Pradesh (occupied South Tibet) went to Delhi and was beaten to death because he 'looked Chinese.'
    2024: In the 1990s, India subtly probed the People's Republic of China (PRC), leading to the inference that China's position on South Tibet had hardened, despite the PRC officially maintaining ambiguity on the matter. It has become evident that China's earlier offer to cede South Tibet is no longer available, as China has explicitly stated that South Tibet is part of its territory. This stance mirrors the positions of both the Tibetan Lhasa Government and its civil war rival, the Republic of China (Taiwan).

Homelessness, drug addicts, gun violence. Even India with its slums is a better place because the poor atleast go to school unlike the homless of America.
      Indian subways are cleaner than American subways.
      Moreover you must properly hear what Ken said in this video at the beginning. He said clearly that India's economy is atleast growing rapidly and by 25-30 years India will become decent country and be nearly on the same footing as China currently is because India is slowly following China's development model. Moreover Ken has said he would next time visit more parts of India and show them. So wait!
      Ken has admitted that while India is offcourse behind China but still he enjoyed in India and liked that country. Ken is a true and honest vlogger at heart I love his channel.

    Ken, if you want to spend your holidays in India then go to Port Blair and the adjoining islands like Havelock island etc. and stay in a resort, go for scuba diving in the crystal clear waters of the ocean. You will have a relaxing holiday. Since I have visited all parts of India from north to south east to west, you can give some weightage to my advice. However being an Indian I like all parts of India with so many heritage sites and such scenic landscape. But we should get rid of the trash which is a common sight in India and get rid of it fast. Keep up your good work.

    Also, there are two completely different ways of thinking between China and India. At least in the comments I have seen from the people of both countries, I have found that even though China has achieved some things that are world number one and ahead of other countries, Chinese people still believe that it is not good enough. Unless China is 100% good in all things, they will not be willing to admit that their country is good enough. I think this is related to the shadow left by our countless experiences of oppression and bullying in modern times.
    On the other hand, in India, if you point out one of their shortcomings, such as the garbage on the streets, a large group of Indians will rush out to criticize you, blaming the critics instead of acknowledging their shortcomings and thinking that India is very advanced. I think this is related to their lack of intense conflicts, disruptive social changes, and thorough revolution since the founding of the country.
    So I believe that India is not an independent country, but a continuation of British colonialism. They have not completely transformed Indian society, have not experienced a huge crisis, have not had the conditions and courage for self revolution, but are immersed in the sweet words of Western countries, getting deeper and deeper in the dream called "Great India" woven for them by the West.

      India is comparing with China only because China is better so that India can sort out it's shortcomings and improve the way China did. Educated Indians compare India with China with the intent of looking at China as their inspiration and as a perfect nation and check the gap between the two countries and try to cover that gap in the same way China did with the western countries.
      An average student always compares with the good students so that he can work like them and achive results like them and not with the dumb ones. Simple logic.
      Because of your hardcore racism. You fail to recognise your 3000 year old friend and neighbour with whom you had coexisted peacefully and had trade, diplomatic relations in the ancient world with cultural ties like Buddhism and where scholars of your country like Tang Sazang, Fa Hien, Hieun Tsang travelled to 1500 years back and the name of which is mentioned in some of your ancient epics like Journey to the West.
      Buddhism originated in India and was a major religion of many Chinese empires and interwined in your culture and heritage.
      How can you simply ignore India?
      You try to be friends with those Anglo Countries which plundered, took away your sovereignty and respect in the 19th century and during Boxer Rebellion and still today insults your food culture and your immigrants.
      Stop caring about the Anglos they are not your friends. India, Nepal are your historical friends. Improve your cooperation with them.
      What you said about rape and low iq men said is only true for North India, parts of South India and eastern India at most!
      North India, parts of South India and eastern India!
      The rest that is far Northwest Indian himalayas, far south India, entire Northeast India are completely different and amazing!

      Its not a third world dump overall only certain regions are!
      I myself have meticulously noticed.
      The worst, dirtiest, most unsafe for women third world parts are in North India and East India like Varanasi, Delhi, Calcutta and unfortunately Delhi is the capital and being dirty, rapey people tend to think Delhi is the representation of entire India which is false. You should see India throughout and not judge just by Varanasi, Delhi, Agra which has literally garbage dumps.Look I am Persian- Jew. From my maternal side I have descended from the Kochin, whereas my paternal ancestors were Oriental Jews from Iran. The Jewish community in India is one of the oldest overseas Jewish community which dates back to 3000 years when the first Jews from the Holy Land settled in Southern India as merchants.

      In terms of modernity there is no comparison but still there are quite a lot of other things to compare .
      Software engineering
      Food
      History ( ancient civilization)
      Philosophy ( Taoism and Buddhism)
      Chess expertise
      Number of scientific research paper outputs ( China ranks second, India ranks fifth globally).
      Shipbuilding ( most of the cargo ships are built in China followed by Turkey and India).
      Space programme
      Metro Subways ( China and India both have far better subways than America)
      Student lives and toughness of entrance exams ( both China and India have the toughest engineering, medical and civil administration entrance exams in the world and students in China and India are taught hard core maths from a young age without using calculators).
      Watch the movie 3 idiots to see how hard an Indian engineering students life can be.
      Moreover India overall is not at all hell.
      That's a complete stereotype.
      Parts of India like North India,Delhi, Varanasi, Agra, some regions of Mumbai are hell but not the others.
      No one in their proper, stable mind who have seen Northeast India, Far South India, Northwestern India would say those places are hell.
      South India is completely industrialized and modern. So yeah modernity applies very much to South Indian regions which have massive software, pharmaceutical industries, technology parks and the main centre of Indian Space Research Organisation.
      Look at the city of Vizag, it is completely a French modelled town or perhaps the city of Kochi in Kerala, built by European standards.

    Well honestly... Thanks for ur honest & unbiased opinions, infact as an indian I too agree with you. I don't even see any point comparing india & china. Obviously china is way more developed & modern compared to india & that's natural bcoz they started their modernization 10-20y before us. It's obvious that they would advance more (not bcoz we're dumb, bcoz we started late). But as you said, there are multiple prblms within india as other countries have, it might not be the best place in the world from a foreigner's perspective but definitely can be on one's good side of the memories (among all other countries in the world) with a mix feelings. We're growing rapidly, we're in the process of growth, we haven't yet fully "grown" which means yes there are multiple problems that we need to solve in future, thanks for visiting, do visit us again :)
    I'd say to all foreigners: "don't come to india to see everything good or just bad. Visit us to witness the change, the co-existence of good & bad, you need to be careful & even we stay careful in our own country (in some phishy areas, not everywhere). Witness our recovery. Coz maybe after 15-20y, india is going to be another china (or even better if I be more hopeful for my own country), then you guys will miss the opportunity to witness the process 😂😂

    Specially because it is not easy to face a different culture alone with 0 knowledge about the place, if even with internet, people only show the good parts. It is better if we are aware of what we gonna find.
