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

Airports: ECO-SYSTEM.
Give yourself an applause here. đđđ
Zenoâs answer: NEVER.đ«
Why do men say women hit the wall at 24?
Before Desi eyes go somber and tearful, let me explain.
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).
ECOSYSTEMS where the citizens experiences need to improve.
Why do all the stupid people think Donald J. Trump is stupid?
Excellent staff from all over India. Amazing competence and professionalism shown by all from Doctors to Nurses to technicians, even the lift staff. đđđ
Not true in many other areas of the country. đ
How long would it take for âVishwa Parihasa â to catch up with âDung Po Pewâ.
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.
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.
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
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.
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.
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.
There is the Greek Philosopher Zenoâs paradox.
Maybe I should Poka Yoke and Nemawashi my writings as well. đđ
Coming back to Greek Philosophy this time.
How are max different from medical and minimum security prisons?
China did that and still does that too. And I canât understand complaints by the US and Russians here.
Would that be logical? Yes!
So, here is my proposition.

India has a space program that seeks to reap military as well as civilian benefits in this so-called race which there is none.
Afterall, Whatsapp, FB, mobile smart phones, have all helped us interact as well as avoid pesky and nosy neighbors and relatives.
Also, what does âAheadâ and âBehindâ really mean?
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.
Malls and Cinema Metroplexes
China is a polity; India is a polity. So far so good.
They, in turn, have eyes only for the Good Ole USA.
What is it that you folks wants to âCatch upâ here??? Just asking not telling.
Another Example from Greek Mythology: Hippomenes and Atalanta race. [This is a warning to my country, the USA, really]

The other factor is TIME. This is where the paradox comes in.
Why don't I want to talk to my girlfriend when she loves me a lot? I feel bored.
Traffic on Roads. Well, experiences in India. đ
Thanks for the request Nagarajan Sir. Sorry for the delay, it is tax filing time.
Some Examples
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
Nemawashi: Small incremental improvements, that make your daily experiences better in whatever âEcosystemâ, you have to interact with.
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.
Never understood what it meant, but now in the winter of my years, I now realize what that means. đ
What is so magical about 30?
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.
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.
But I thought, I would include it just for kicks and clicks. đ
Now for some areas of discomfort.
Your Corner D-Marts gave me the same âexperienceâ as any that I had in Japan, China or Korea.
Peace and good luck to all.
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.
Space race- Technology in general.
Another Eco System, where you donât have to apologize. đđđ
Hospitals
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).
Brevity is the soul of wit, but what can I say⊠Verbosity is the soul of a Twit. And I admit to being Verbose.
Donât compare, Donât Complain.
Not many will agree with Zeno, because he is a Mlechha Yavana Barbarian.đđafter all.
Give yourselves a round of applause. đđđ
Housing: When I land in Hyderabad and travel through Cyber City, I feel like Iâm in China.

Iâve heard this proverb before: Fools build Houses and Wise Men live in them.
You were âWaiting for your âDoughâ
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.
That is all that matters really.
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!
Not the distant unheard of thunder from climes and places, thousands of miles away.
Malls and Cineplexes in the US are dying⊠and descrepit (Thank you Amazon and Netfix) ⊠So experience wise, you folks have it good. đđđ
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.
D-Marts etc.
Look instead at Pockets of Comfort created within your immediate environs.
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.
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
But is this what we want to emulate? I donât know the answer to that?
What is the experience of an ordinary salaried family to living in this bee-hive?
Well for starters, âVishwa Parihasa â must run at a âfasterâ pace than âDung Po Pew â.
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.
Banks
Many lost their heads, as they looked behind to see if Atalanta was gaining on them . Hippomenes was given a head start by Atalanta.
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?
Let us assume that the Polity called âDung Poo Pew â is ahead of the Polity called âVishwa Parihasaâ in some mythical race.
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.
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.
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.
Hippomenes distracting the speedy Atalanta to win the race and also her hand in marriage
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.
AQI (Air Quality Index) Delhi and Beijing⊠stinks to high heavens. Equivalent to smoking two packs of cigarettes/day even for the non-smoker.

I donât know. I know that if I were young, my sex drive would plummet, Viagra or not.
And it does not matter, if the technology was invented in Timbuktoo, Africa. Copy Paste, Repeat.
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.
Again, in any urban setting in India, the Malls are an eco-system as good as any experience in China.
This begs the question.
