Sorry about the headline. I have asked mod to fix it.
Just curious, what the Christian presence in India is today. That can be a big driver of progress in what had been a third world country.
Minor issue. When India’s GDP is 20x that of the UK to match its 20-times larger population, then they will have parity.
Some of the biggest business opportunities in the world are fast growing middle classes in India, China, etc.
Percentage wise they aren’t huge, but they are big since they are applied to the two largest population countries in the world.
BRIC = Brazil, Russia, India, China.
Many in India were so sure that Trump would win the election, they celebrated his victory about two weeks early. Remember that? There was a big ceremony about it, with a street procession, followed by live theater. I wish I could have seen it.
Of course, there was not much publicity, because the story was all positive about The Donald.
This is one good thing that George Bush started ten years ago. March of 2006.
nice to know H1B visas work for someone
Since India has about one quarter of the planet’s entire population, it says something that tiny Britain has exceeded India until now.
That’s two former colonies that have eclipsed Great Britain. They need to really contemplate why and the answer lies in Thatcher’s reforms.
United Kingdom - GDP Per Capita - $43,902
depends on how you value the India Rupee
currently 60(?) to the USD.
after the ‘cancel the 1000Rp banknotes’,
there will be no bottom.
hello Venezuela
This is good news, BTW. The more capitalism spreads the more wealth and happiness is created.
It’s surprising that so many here don’t question the validity of the statistics behind the claim that the Indian GDP has overtaken Great Britain. I don’t believe it. Not at all. And I’ve never believed that the Chinese GDP ever overtook Japan, either. We shall soon see in our new Trump-world that these sorts of claims are just propagandistic horsedung. Like the continuous claims made by the world-wide left-wing media that the US has been overtaken by some socialistic backwater or other in some quality-of-life or economic matter, usually Green-driven or tyrannically inspired. We just witnessed the greatest repudiation of the claims of all of the left-wing media outlets with Trump’s victory. Why do we continue to accept their lies uncritically? We all should know better now.
Of course, Modi has ruined the Indian Economy with his demonetization scheme.
After Brexit Britain is also "post-colonial".
