  1. Historical economical facts of India and China: A tale of arrogance and talking versus humility and actions. 1) India joined WTO earlier than China. 1995 vs 2001. India had a head start advantage. 2) India gained independence in 1947, 2 years earlier than China (civil war). India had a head start advantage. 3) India's GDP was higher than China only because of the "British India" 's leadership. 4) After the British left India in 1947, India could only compete against China fair and square based on their true capabilities. Please note that India's GDP is much higher than China when both received their independence. It is the Indian leadership versus the Chinese leadership from this point onwards. 5) The GDP gap between China and India narrows down and China caught up with India during the 1980s. 6) 1980s is a very crucial period because it is the only period in history whereby both countries started at the same starting point of the GDP race after independence. 7) Fast forward today, China's GDP became 5+ times more than |ndia today. This is the difference between the Chinese GDP miracle versus the Indian GDP miracle. 8) Despite all these facts, India's leaders claimed to be the "World Fastest Growing Economy" and a superpower. 9) China's leaders claimed to be a developing country and has never claimed to be a superpower.
