I have different views on India China dispute

@ABCDEF7 no, I don't understand Hindi.

@JBird Then you missed it.

@ABCDEF7 I don't think I miss much with a single video. There are lots of other videos reporting about the dispute

@JBird I have also seen other video, but I shared this one only. This person is a native of Ladakh, an inventor and engineer by profession, and many people supported his #BoycottMadeInChina movement after convinced by his thoughts. Even media others countries are discussing this movement with him. Soon other countries may follow the movement.

@ABCDEF7 I saw the video. I still think it's stupid to jump ahead with the ban because almost every product used in India are at least funded by China. Even India's Paytm are backed by Jack Ma's alibaba. It's nearly impossible to eliminate all Chinese products. India needs to wait at least another fifty years till they could produce independent products.

@JBird How did you understood without understanding what he is saying in Hindi

@ABCDEF7 I have a friend who knows Hindi. He explained its context to me. I came across this video before and also read a news article related to it before.

Again no matter how much you push Indians to give up Chinese products, we are not ready for it.

@JBird I am sorry to inform you, your friend translated it wrong. As you mentioned, He is not talking about jumping to a ban.

@ABCDEF7 That was my words, not his.

@JBird That's what I am saying, you didn't understood is concept.

@ABCDEF7 if you think I am not understanding the concept, please explain. Let's see if my friend missed anything.

@ABCDEF7 https://www.outlookindia.com/website/story/india-news-boycotting-chinese-goods-will-hit-them-where-it-hurts-the-most-activist-sonam-wangchuk/355388

Here's the English version of his interview. Actually he's talking along my lines. He says the boycott can't be taken in hand immediately because India is not self sufficient yet. He's asking people to be prepared for it.

I am not saying we should be dependent on China or any other country. But it's stupid for anyone to think to that we could do better without Chinese or gain anything from it in a fortnight.

@ABCDEF7 what wangchuk said was more of visionary and ethical approach rather than a revolutionary or political. I agree with what he said, and even he says you should not throw away Chinese products right now, admitting the boycott is a challenge.

He also mentioned how hard is for an Indian entrepreneurs to successfully start a business in the country and citizens to put away their differences and start trusting each other.

Moreover the reality is far different from his visions and it's a hurdle for Indians to fulfill it. I already shared an article about why India can't afford the boycott now.

@JBird I like your calculation and knowledge about Indian economy and industrial sector for estimating more than 50 years for India to house own production units.

I just wanted to share it with you because he answered some of your questions in this video. I am sorry, I can't help you get his point, or give my own thoughts on this.

Have a nice day !

@ABCDEF7 he didn't answer my questions. He actually pointed out same thing I was talking about. It's you who needs to understand the concept.

Yes, I calculated 50 years because the current government said India would be superpower in 2020 and the reality is far from it.

@JBird You really don't understand Hindi.

I am sorry to share with you.

@ABCDEF7 dude, don't blame it on my inability to understand English. You didn't explain yourself nor you pointed out where I got wrong. It looks like you didn't understand what neither of us said. I read the English version of the interview, I even shared it with you. You check on it and see if it's different from the Hindi version.

@JBird The article you shared just has a brief interview with him not his complete thoughts. The questions were targeted specifically by the journalist to get some weak link in his thought process, but he answers and explained them all very well. If you agree with his views, you can support his #BoycottMadeInChina movement.

@ABCDEF7 lol. Who said we shouldn't support it? Looks like you missed a lot of important points raised by wangchuk as much as you misread my points. I didn't say we should be dependent on foreign products. Neither he said we should throw away products because they're Chinese or we should hate them. He is pressing on being self sufficient so that it could strengthen our economy and also in this situation weaken the opposing power's economy. But that's a challenge which can take time. Read the article again.

Other countries like USA, could easily achieve because they have every resource they need. The economy is stable enough to support that. Only manufacturing sectors need to be shifted from China to another country. For India, it's not that easy. Most of their products are dependent on China. Being independent takes time.

A lot of Indians think that they should immediately eliminate every Chinese they could get hands on which is, I think, a foolish attempt.

@ABCDEF7 read this article from bbc on why India can't afford boycotting right now.

https://www.bbc.com/news/world-asia-india-53150898

@ABCDEF7 we should be boycotting Chinese products and work forward to be self sufficient. But now is not the right time, especially with coronavirus epidemic going on in the country and current economic situation. That's all I am saying
