    It is about time China and India put aside their differences and start working together. I see both these countries are great nations with more in common then meets the eye. A good relationship between China and India will mean best security in Asia. Good luck China and India.

    Indian media is the biggest obstacle in achieving good relations with China 🇨🇳
    The Indian media is day by day becoming extremely jingoistic under the guise of being nationalist. And because there are so many of them the competition between them encourages each one of them to be more and more aggressive.
    China badhing looks fashionable to them and for that they do one sided hostility stories. They dont try to strike any balance. On the other hand Chinese media does very less stories on India and hence govt of China handles India and thier people having neutral approach to Indians, here in India the common man is fed with extreme high anti China rhetoric.
    Govt of China to only see what Indian govt says and ignore pvt media and Govt of India should solely make the China policy and shouldn't consider public sentiment as the public sentiment is build up misreporting and high volune one sided rhetoric.

      ! You are trying pull wool over the eyes of ordinary Indians, into making them believe that "Chinese are my greatest bosom friends". Say, where is the foundation for such a feeling? I don't see any. From the day 1 of PRC ordering its PLA to patrol the "new" Indian frontier, India had nothing but chronic insecurity. You are trying to change the heads as per your plan, because you discovered that the brains inside can't be tampered with. It is your perfidy & is diabolical that Indians, should guard against for their own good. Shortly you'll see placards like "Chinese travelers unwelcome in India" at the airports (they are already there, if you want to know).
      China bashing doesn't look fashionable, unlike what you say. Why should be China-bashing unnecessarily (say this to USA)? India isn't USA.
      What is natural in Indian-Chinese friendship? On personal level I dealt with some Chinese in India & were friendly too. I would do that with anybody - an Icelander, Pakistani, Paraguayian or Canadian. What is so "SPECIAL" about Chinese? In fact, India's No.1 enemy is PRC (as a past defence minister declared). You need to overcome it. He did that because there is a reason for it. Try it. It is very hard, I assure you that. To hell with your media. Indians don't read, nor care to read nor want to know what is in Chinese papers either in Mandarin or English. Their neutral approach - "my foot", you lier ! Indians have pro-Indian approach only; please make note of it. There is no public sentiment on Chinese in India (except some very wild jokes). To start with, there is no basis for it. There was no prior history for it. You want to bet? You are living in a delusion, you made it for yourself.

I will follow others if the need arises; no need to follow your advice - of all the people. I am rich as I am, but won't make you rich at my cost; so don't try your nefarious tricks on me. I know, you are creating conditions so that I run to you with folded hands & bent knees, to beg of you "please give me advice". That is your wet dream & will never happen in reality, however much you try. India is not Pakistan, for that matter. For me, you are a despicable, simple egoist & nothing more. Shove all that "should do is what others can't do things and others can't imagine things" wisdom, in your own fucked arse. You aren't my dad or grand-dad to talk like this.

      ! Hmm? Patronising is it ? If India's envy is your "stumbling block", what is it that you did, to remove it, to India's satisfaction of course. Not that you didn't do them but not to India's satisfaction. Don't be under the impression, that India will side with you because the two are A S I A N. If you do it, you prove that you are enjoying a fool's delusion. And don't take India for granted. That doesn't wash.
      There is an adage in India. If horse makes friends with grass, what will it eat then? This is called rational approach. India, if it feels there are some bushes blocking the way, knows what machete to use for the bushes. India has no preferences for any because one is Asian. American machete cuts the best in the world. India wants its path cleared .

Observing what is working and not working with China rise. The greatest philosophers in the world are from India and helped shaped Chinese culture. This comment about envy clearly illustrate that Indian philosophies have faded for you. My Indian friends, ignorance is bliss.

    All of it, I heard is blah blah ... blah.
    The only point of some relevance is the last point in the summing up. Both must dig deep into their accounts of histories, to have a common basis. The speaker says that there was confluence of their cultures in SE Asia. True. But neither of them were fully aware of the other, even in such a confluence. It wouldn't be far from truth if I say that they were culturally competing. Over the first millennium after Christ, two Chinese scholars came to India in sixth & ninth centuries, Huan tsong & Fa hien. There wasn't any significant event between them both, with at least two thousand miles between their borders with a big country, Tibet, separating them. The world is led to believe by such scholars & egg-heads that they were in close touch & proximity continuously from the ancient times. That is wrong.

The best in.the stable was a beautiful white stallion. Another rich man who too was a horse breeder wanted to ride that white stallion. So, he visited the mansikn & requested for a ride from its owner. The owner didn't want any to ride his best horse said, "that horse isn't here with me now". The asker was disappointed & while climbing down the steps heard the horse nighing & saw it (white horse). So he went up the stsps & confronted the owner, who said "gentleman! You could understand the horse language'but not the meaning of my words".

See how the US failed in Afghanistan, Iraq, Libya and etc. To cover up the US taxpayers were make to believe the US had brought 'democracy' to this war torn region, and the US in major role created the ME migration problems.
    2. China, in her role created the Belt and Road, the AIIB and other programs that are business and development in nature. Can you see the different approaches the US and the Chinese take? Yes, the US also did such programs in the past, but notice the insidious effects brought by the US.
    3. Just rightly pointed out, India will come up very soon, even may overtake China because of her advantages such as the population, the English-based intellectuals and etc, but it is never the free democracy.

There are still big rooms for India and China to go. And let's see the free democratic system and the one party system in actions. It may resulted in great enlightenment for all of us.
      5. Opportune times are not always available. China is lucky to have hers, and now looks like India is about to have hers. India should treasure and value the opportunity and make good and full use of it, do not be distracted by vicious influences whether internal or external. It takes very clear mind to aware the danger, and we believe India has that good senses.

      How can they both be natural friends when there was no 'significant' contact (on the lines that India had, say, with the West, the Middle East) between them through out history till 1950? If at all it was there, it was very flimsy, not to affect either of them whatsoever. Indians read in their history lessons that two Chinese scholars came to India, to collect (copy) Buddhist (religious) textbooks. They are - Huan tsong & Fa hien (in sixth & ninth centuries). So what you say is a fig of your imagination, born out of hope.

      ! India and China were never in touch with each other to a significant degree (except some personal visits by some). There was no shared history (neither Indian kings went to China nor Chinese Kings visited India), common border (separated by two thousand miles of Tibet that India knew as another independent country), there was no cultural contact (only Fa Hien & Huan Tsong came to India to copy Buddhist religious texts), no common ethnicity, no common language or belong to a linguistic group (Indian languages belong to Indo-European family of languages while the text of Chinese languages is pictures-based), no trade worth a cent & no wars. Alexander (the great) wanted to conquer the (known) world & India was the eastern outpost to the world. He, nor his mentor Aristotle never knew of China. He was a contemporary of the Magadha king, Emperor Chandragupta Maurya (Sandrocottus) whose grandson, Asoka the great who eschewed violence, embracing Buddhism sent emissaries all around his Empire & one or more to China too. If Buddhism spread to all over Asia in those ancient times, it is due to Asoka. To the west of India, later, Afghanistan in particular Buddhism was supplanted by the newly emerged Islam, with more than considerable amount of bloodshed. With it went to Graeko-Indian kingdoms there whose rulers embraced Buddhism. The Greelfeatures in some Hindu kush communities vouch for the Greek kingdoms then. No such thing can be found, of Chinese !
      The relationship started in 1950 with PRC making a common border with India even without informing India about it. It started on a bad note. So there can't be sweetness in the relationship. Particularly so, in view of India's ancient maritime trade & ties with the West from the ancient times (unlike with China). The trade was huge (unlike the puny land trade across high, inhospitable mountain passes) that was the cause of Indian prosperity.It was also the cause for spurring Chris Columbus to venture across an Ocean (the first for any man) & end up in the discovery of America . Ever since the PLA on the border in 1950, India lost its sense of comfort & security. It has to learn new lessons on security & strategy,thanks to PRC.
      Don't bring in the 'cry wolf' of European imperialism, started in 1700s, not in ancient world. It isn't that India hates Europeans, like Chinese do. Hate isn't not on Indians mind nor their motive force. So you Chinese ! don't "teach Hate" Indians. In order to be called "cultured" amongst humans, Chinese must learn one thing - not to teach one as to what & how he or they should do or conduct. It is the least expected out of a human being(else Chinese won't be treated as humans, but someone below). Right now PRC is doing that shitty thing.
