- China and India have proven themselves indispensable in the first decade of the twenty-first century, which has been a remarkable period of economic growth and increased connectivity for both countries. Policy initiatives like the US Trans-Pacific Partnership (TPP) that promote trade in these emerging markets provide exciting new opportunities for entrepreneurs around the globe to expand and develop their businesses and connect with potential consumers. However, in an increasingly competitive global marketplace, can the US continue to lead in both the political and economic spheres? How should the US engage with India and China in the future? Join World Affairs for a conversation with Anja Manuel, co-founder and principal of RiceHadleyGates, LLC, who will offer insights into how the US should work with China and India to face the twenty-first century's global challenges.
Speaker Anja Manuel is Co-Founder and Principal at RiceHadleyGates LLC.
Jane Wales, CEO, World Affairs Council and Global Philanthropy Forum and Vice President, The Aspen Institute, moderates the discussion.

Now let me ask you a question, US is the oldest democracy in modern times, so how many women president served US so far??? Sorry, I did not hear it properly!!! zero!! shunya!!! OMG. I thought US is the champion in women rights and equality!!!!
Krishnayan Basuroy was cfyy
you can put this simple way. American public is still not mentally ready for a female president. So they are intellectually lagging behind Indians.
Also their treatment of the indegenous native American is deplorable.
In India, lot of good ideas are being implemented. It's all up to impetus and execution now...
When you talk about Varanasi and pollution, you should also mention about how much Modi government is doing to change that.
She did.
India spent a total of 15 Billion on clean technology last year.
Which is a very small amount compared to the size of the problem.

I am an Indian who has lived in China too. Let me explain about China before explaining about my country. China no doubt has brought millions of people out of poverty (600 million to be approximate) but the authoritarian regime is very strict and can jail people for freedom that we people living in democracy take for granted. China is not a country that is planning to dominate the region, but its perspective is to be the country that will decide world progress from Beijing. They are very proud people but oppressed people. A Chinese friend who was from a lower middle class like me over couple of drinks confessed that people like him are oppressed by the regime. That is a bold statement for a Chinese guy as he can be jailed for couple of years for such statement. But China has decided that as long as they make progress and can keep majority of population happy they do not have to worry about revolution like that of 1989. And China is going to dominate the world politics for the next 50 years. India is a complex country even for an Indian to understand. I belong to a lower middle class Indian family, so we had three times food in our house and electricity growing up but nothing luxurious. We did not starve even for a single day in our life but had nothing luxurious in our house. None from family had even seen college and I was the first one to get an engineering degree. I am Indian and have never seen the level of poverty that TV channels show even in my state. I am south Indian and the level of poverty is abject in some of north Indian states and north eastern states. So India is a complex country for anyone to understand, I live in city that has 4 local languages apart from the state language and Hindi and English. So anyone from my city can speak 6 languages easily. But we are united, we do not understand north Indians much as our culture is very different but we will not hesitate to give our lives for our brothers from any part of India. Indians are proud even poor people. We will bring all our brothers out of poverty as we millenials do not work like our fathers. If we encounter corruption we quickly capture that and broadcast it through Facebook and youtube and expose the corrupt people. Also people who work in Private sector has different work culture than that of Government sector. Private sector mostly work for the US, Europe and Asian countries, so our work culture matches or exceeds world standards. We expect more from government employees who are still in colonial standards. India even if we developed and superpower we will not invade any other country as Indians will not allow to do the same. Our culture has existed for centuries and we understand China and Arabs and know from our history to deal with them.

Westerners sometime exaggerate the poverty as if we r living in d era of fallout of WW|||
few points to be noted, first of all democracy itself is nothing if it cannot deliver the result, the system in india hasnt really delivered as good as chinese system, to find some of the answers of some complicated questions historically china was more prosperous, unified and strong in past 2000 years, where as india was mostly divided throughout the history in the name caste, religion , and regions. the more work less talk attitude of chinese is a very strong asset where as india more talk less work is very common , india got a lot to learn from china. you call india a gentle power but the truth is they are very good at pulling the leg of its neighbours, the good example is a blockade by india in nepal
Nice post.
Today's India is a lot more prosperous than the India i left behind in the early 90s when I left for greener pastures to US. Today's Indian middle class has at least one car that was unimaginable during my days!
Poverty still exists but is not as much as it is made out to be.
Sridhar Kaushik we created India as a Britishcolony, we wrote your school textbooks
You want to know the difference between China and India, look no further than the Beijing Olympic Games in 2008 and Delhi Commonwealth games in 2010..... Yes, you may have more freedom in India now but nothing gets done. The 2010 Commonwealth Games is a big bloody mess! Stadiums, hostels not ready, ceiling falling, bridges collapsing, top athletes refusing to go fearing for their safety. How anyone could mess up hosting a small scale event like the commonwealth games is beyond me.
She is correct but needs updated information on India. Sometimes she is flawed. But OK.
She is also wrong about China. She doesn't know China. They will wait till you relax, then you are done. We have experienced all of this. Beware.
There's ASEAN and SCO in the region. They have structures for negotiation of conflict settlement.
She has a slight tilt towards China
She doesnt.
Read her book.
I cannot agree more than you...She has higher degree tilt for china!!! Anyways time will tell where India will go!!!
Resistance is futile. Join the Chinese-borg blog now.
That reflects reality though. I do admire the Indian elites especially their efforts and achievements overseas. The problems in India mostly laid on grassroots. And democratic system doesn't enhance the economic growth. For example, the recent announced India-Japan agreement to build first high speed train to be finished in 2023., it takes 7 years to build a 508 km railway. Chinese just got astonished why taking so long because their country has built 20000 km high speed railways within 10 years. The Chinese speed just can't be accomplished in any democratic country. Chinese government maybe rigid but it gets things down.
High speed rail alone doesn't decide the prosperity index of a nation. India is more popular as a nation as compared to China. The only allies of China are Pakistan and NK. Problem with India is that it is democratic and at the same time highly populated: both don't go well hand in hand. But we have a capable prime minister now, he can churn out anything in near future that could shake the entire system. No offence with the Chinese, I have worked with them and am still working with them, they are peaceful, smart and hard-working. the only qualm is the ruling party's fetish to monger wars, embrace espionage and grabbing lands that don't belong to them. I don't mind them supporting Pakistan for as long as it is to do with development and welfare of that country which is dangerous if left alone in international community.
When you keep comparing yourself to a country like Pakistan that is what you get. China far ahead in every aspect they deserve it, Kudos.
she dissected this very well.
Interesting n enlightning discussion Indian need to take note of, coming from ex-state department official of USA.
thanks anya mam...you gave such a nice perspective to things...your knowledge in FP is impeccable
There was a pepper spray incident few years back in indian parliament.
That do not involve any woman or their rights, so she would not like to mention it.
Anja Manuer has interesting things to say. 3rd video that's an hour long - I'm watching them all. Hopefully she continues with this.
NARENDHRA MODI 👍👍👍👍
We have lost millions of jobs to china and the WTO's actions! You are wrong about America not able to manufacture as well. When we go to war with a country that can now buy and engineer weapons to compete with ours and millions of solders die only because we are sending them trillions of dollars a year that they use to develop their military. Would we then say it was worth it to save wall street and the 1% on there margins? You say Americans have 30% more money because of china but didn't say we have 25% less chance of making a higher wage job because thier is not that much money in are economy to spread around! We need to change the trade laws now to help the middle class around the world now!
if all World leaders have the intellect of Anja, the World will be a great place.
She tried to be as good to China as possible. Not sure why, but this is clear.
well she is right about india
nice
im in love with your intellect Ms Anja
I need to see some legs , and why doesn't she have a Wiki page ?
I am Indian but sorry to say that when she is describing about India's poverty and slums she is completely on the right platform

Mp Singh Poverty will be vanished from India in 2030. Only 3% will live in poverty in 2020.....

Mp Singh Economic loss :-
India’s GDP before the British came : 27% of World GDP in 1700.
India’s GDP when British left India in 1947: 3% of World
GDP.
When British left us in 1947 our literary rate was 16% today 74% and still increasing. Our life expectancy was 27 and today 71 and still increasing. 90% live below poverty line when thief British left us in 1947 and today 21%. It's far better than 90%. In 2030 poverty will be vanished from India.
We have long way to go but today's situation is far far better than in 1947. 90% poverty, 16% literacy and 27 life expectancy in 1947 when British left us....can you imagine this?? Nowadays situation is far better no doubt but we have still long way to go. And people talk about why there's so much poverty. One thing I want to tell them that if you don't know past then you can't understand present. I don't blame those people but their government is hiding colonial history and that's the main problem because they don't know the real reason behind our poverty. If they know it then they don't ask those questions.
Indians would have it really difficult to accept the obvious: they have elected Modi, an extremist with a well known record of spreading hatred and violence especially in Gujrat. He has proved to be obviously beneficial for Indian regional interests, particularly those dealing with Pakistan; however, his hatred against Muslims will further push the Indian society towards religious intolerance which one can even witness today.
That's what the Liberal media wants you to believe whereas the ground realities are completely different
dude have even ever been to gujraat?
