Jatt,

Tally,

This is not a question of poltiicizing. This is a question of congress having all the power on India for the last 50 years.

Had it been a chance for every political party i wouldnt have *politicized* LOL.. but in India is reflected the bias of congress since independence so what can i do? LOL...

you are right, another swadeshi movement has to be done, chinese products wont long last.. they are cheap , use and throw type. nokia products lost their originality and their longevity once their products started their produce from chinese locations. ...

Dear rn, the issue raised by me is economic. Why politicize it??? The issue can be solved by by our own industry and common man/woman like you and me. We all have to be aware. At times Govt has limitations in terms of trade treaty or WTO trade rules. If you and me become aware of situation the country can move forward!!! ...

I do not buy Chinese goods. BEST of Mumbai is buying large no of Chinese A/C buses King Longs. We as citizen are entitled to know the basis on which this decision was made? Tata & AshoK Leyland are making very good A/c bises for DTC Delhi. These buses run on CNG,are economical and trouble free.

I WISH WE ALL RAISE THESE ISSUES!!!...

Further to my earlier post.

I have first hand knowledge where large projects build with Chinese equipment have suffered and project have replaced the equipment from Indian manufactured.

Chinese have certain advantages in terms of being cheapest manufactured of goods. The interest rates are extremely low but most important is higher productivity of its labor. The work culture inculcated by the industry is exemplary. India will have to overcome some of these hurdles by the industry within and with the help of Govt.

I must also state that Indian industry normally goes for projects with very high profit margins compared with Chinese. This is a strength as well makes us non performers.

I have a strong feeling that Indian industry is trying to become competitive and very soon overcome hurdles to become high grade manufacturing hub center of the world. Young work force with adequate skills will ensure this in very near future.

I do not like Chinese goods at a personal level but notwithstanding my opposition is to large scale import of Chinese Capital goods without any advantage to our national interest. WE MUST ENSURE LEVEL FIELD WITH CHINESE AND TRADE BALANCE MUST BE ENSURED. We should also learn to use trade as an instrument of national policy. China India equation can not be allowed to be detrimental to our national interest as we have many areas of conflict and are natural adversaries....

may be ur experience is good.. but i hate chinese goods.... they are very inferior......

Dear radhika nandlal & netdo, I welcome your response to my post on China.

I have kept track of various Chinese goods which have been flooding Indian market since 1990. I was posted in Bagdogra (near Siliguri) and saw cheap Chinese stuff flooding Indian market through Nepal. However I DO NOT WISH TO GET INTO ARGUMENT ABOUT THESE CONSUMER ITEMS WHICH HAVE VERY LITTLE SIGNIFICANCE. netdo is absolutely right in his assertain that most of the manufacturing goods are designed by multinational cos and some of them are of very high quality.

However, couple of years back when I changed my Esteem car tyres it cost me Rs 1950 each. Chinese tyres were available for Rs 1450 each. My JK brand has given me already a mileage of 25000kms & I am sure these tyres will last me for 65000-70000 km whereas Chinese brand last for much lesser time and if you drive at speeds above 100 kmph you are likely to compromise your safety. I can quote many such specific instances.

However my intention was to draw mostly on project imports and that is what I mentioned in my earlier post. Equipment for power projects and laying of gas pipe lines could have easily been undertaken by Cos like L&T or JP. I WILL CONTINUE THE POST AFTER SOME TIME. We must express our views on such an important issue....
