India and China: Can two tigers share a mountain? Lecture at The Australian National University by David M Malone, 20 April 2010.
To outsiders, India and China show some striking similarities. Both are ancient civilizations reincarnated as modern republics in the mid twentieth century, and are now rising powers. Both have nuclear weapons, burgeoning economies, expanding military budgets and large reservoirs of manpower, and seem to be vying for influence in the Indian Ocean, the Persian Gulf, Africa, Central Asia and East Asia. Yet little attention is paid to the relationships between them.

India's a country where a Christian woman stepped aside for a Sikh to become Prime Minister , who was administered his oath by a Muslim President for a Country of more than 80 % Hindus. Unity in Diversity is India's greatest strength, not its weakness. here's something for you : Hindu I sm Jai N ism Bud D hism Sikh I sm Isl A m

India is composed of separate people with separate languages, and the word Indian is simply a political and geographical denotation of these separate people living in the Indian peninsula. It is absolutely wrong to equate India's potential rise with China's absolute rise, cuz 92% of the population in China are homogenously Han Chinese.
