To dominate exports you need Ships and Ports
India presently has 8-10% of China's Port Capacity and a mere 0.1% of China's Shipbuilding output
So how exactly did India ever claim to replace China as a manufacturing destination?
For a product that exits China in 6 1/2 days
It would take 68 1/4 days to exit India with the same capacity
The Gap cannot be met even quarter of the way
India with a 25X surge in shipbuilding would still be only 2.5% of where China is

President Donald J. Trump and First Lady Melania Trump greet President Xi Jinping of China and Madame Peng Liyuan upon their arrival in Washington, D.C., ahead of the state visit at the White House.
Has anyone else noticed that over the past decade or so, very few Chinese science and technology experts have emigrated to the United States? China clearly has a massive pool of AI experts, EV specialists, battery engineers, drone experts, high-speed rail engineers, rocket scientists, satellite specialists, hypersonic missile experts, aircraft carrier designers, nuclear submarine engineers—you name it. The only ones who have made their way to the U.S are a handful of so-called humanities scholars and some illegal immigrants through Mexico.
Yet the irony is that America's real target has always been China's STEM talent, not these humanities scholars. The latter are just pitiable figures who've been brainwashed by American ideology and are of no real use to the U.S.—let alone the illegal immigrants, who are even less relevant.
I thank Chinese leader Xi Jinping for his congratulations to Ukraine on our most important national holiday. Independence is an unconditional value for Ukrainians, as it is for all other sovereign nations. We appreciate that over these 35 years, we have built relations with China based on mutual respect and full recognition of the values of our peoples. We count on further cooperation and on China playing a strong diplomatic role in bringing Russia’s war against our country to an end. Peace can be our shared achievement.
Sad news about the passing of former Chinese Premier Zhu Rongji, who made an important contribution to NZ/China relations. He visited NZ in 1992. Here he is on Auckland harbour with then @MFATNZ boss Richard Nottage (PC: Carl Worker).
If all 1.4 billion folks in India get to blast the AC all day and live the same cushy life as Chinese people, it’ll spell total disaster for the planet.
"It's an honor to be with you, it's an honor to be your friend, and the relationship between China and the USA is going to be better than ever before." - President Donald J. Trump 🇺🇸
What do Japanese people think about the obsequious behavior of their Prime Minister Sanae Takaichi during the state dinner at the White House?
She is visiting the most corrupt, narcissistic US president of all time, who is currently trying to plunge the entire world into chaos, and she is dancing with joy.

I’ve been expecting a China dual use export ban on Japan for months. It’s a reasonable response to Japanese remilitarisation that threatens China and all the Asian region.
Japan is hugely vulnerable to supply chain disruption.
Taikachi will be forced to fold.
Next Taiwan.
