6 Areas of India-China Cooperation

Posted by Bill Belew on December 3rd, 2006 in All about China | No Comments

China's President Hu recently visited India.

While there the two countries agreed to double bilateral trade to $40 billion by signing  13 agreements on:

1. Science

2. Space explorationchina-india.jpg

3. Agriculture

4. Education

5. Tourism

6. Nuclear energy

India and China are not the best of friends. There are lots of reasons for this, not the least of which is Pakistan and China's close friendship.

Still, in a short visit, a couple of presidents with the help of a whole lot pre-planning were able to commit a whole lot of money to make a difference in the lives of 40% of the world's population.

Still, one wonders just how much a $16 per person committment over 4 years, can make.

What do you think?

    I think your emphasis on $16 per person is pointless. The focal point should be on the fact that both China and India realize the potential for partnership in the future and that they are making commitments towards better cooperation.
