FROG IN THE WELL.
First take a tour of China before you comments, and you'll begin to understand the meaning of the word "FLAW DEMOCRACY" as in the case of India.
I have been to India many times & I was appalled by what I saw & experienced; the poverty, corruption, caste system, etc. Naked children living in makeshift tents by the road side.
If this is the type of prosperity you are trying to make comparison with, you have totally lost me.

This time round india is the sick man of Asia. Poverty, filth, rubbish, extreme inequality, discrimination, corruption, caste system, starvation are the shames and hallmark of india. India needs to learn from China which gives her people a decent life and dignity. India and China, what a contrast of filthy dump and fragrant garden!

India is now home to the most expensive home in the world - The Antilia

Costing over 2 billion dollars, the 5th richest man chose to build his skyscraper home for himself in the heart of Mumbai.

His bedroom is on the top floor overlooking the city.

This is what I mean by gross and extreme inequality in India to show off while the rich live on the blood, sweat and misery of the poor and downtrodden of indian peasants. Nothing to be proud of for the Antilia owner! There is no human decency whatsoever to the near billion of poor indian peasants nor any person on this planet. This sort of blatant behaviour displayed by the antilia owner gives a very , very negative image about india to the outside world. It makes the filth and rubbish in india I referred to earlier looks even worst! I have visited a 6 stars hotel paved in marble in Chennai India and immediately outside the luxurious hotel compound masses of poor beggars and naked young children live in makeshift cardboard shelters among holy cows! Are average Indians proud of this achievements for the few ?????

My heart really goes for these downtrodden poor whose makeshift shelters are next to the roads looking at the city's inequality, rubbish, filth and human misery and suffering! The system has obviously failed these millions of poor and downtroddens.

I just dont understand why they FORCE others to free their countries. Why dont yankees leave ourselves alone? Let's solve our own problems.

It seems it is very hard to understand for them.

No, China is an enemy of tourists, not terrorists. They block the Net in hotel rooms, no English service anywhere, Orwellien rules, closed sections of the country...

If it is true, it is necessary to protect the whole people against provocations, false propagandas, pornography etc. that could damage the people's mind, spreading dissent.
You also have to protect your kids from pornography, missinformations, to avoid disruption of their lives. A nation with 1.3 billion people must be governed carefully and managed well unless it will come into chaos.
China has done right in keeping the law and order.
As long as the country is progressing, the people well fed,education enjoyed by all, it is great !
No need to listen to the deliberately wrong advice from anybody.
