this year, dominating the main street in Davos are emissaries from India, who have taken over at least eight storefronts with appeals to the elite gathering’s political and business class.
“Every 10 steps you will have either us or a state government or a private entity,” said Deepak Bagla, the CEO of national investment promotion agency Invest India. One investor, Bagla joked, had described the thoroughfare as “Little India.”
India has shown up in force for good reason. In 2023, as global recession fears persist, the country is expected to log the best performance of any major economy. The World Bank is estimating growth of 6.6%, compared to just 0.5% for the United States and 4.3% for China.
If it can maintain its momentum, India will overtake Germany as the world’s fourth largest economy in 2026, knock Japan from the number three spot in 2032 and become only the third country with GDP worth $10 trillion by 2035, according to an analysis by the Centre for Economics and Business Research.
India’s economy currently stands at nearly $3.5 trillion, making it the world’s fifth largest.
The case for investing has been bolstered by geopolitics. As Western business leaders talk about “nearshoring” — shortening supply chains to reduce risks — and “friendshoring,” or boosting economic cooperation with countries that have similar values, the world’s biggest democracy presents a clear alternative to China.
...7the biggest lure may come from the emergence of “China plus one” business strategies, which aim to reduce reliance on the world’s second biggest economy. Beijing’s harsh pandemic response, which added to strain on global supply chains, amplified concerns about its openness. Meanwhile, Russia’s invasion of Ukraine heightened alarm about overreliance on the West’s geopolitical rivals, and has raised scrutiny of China’s threats against Taiwan.

>> “I think the world is realizing you want to be friends with a democracy,”
True enough. Better India than the CCP.
On the other hand, look how many Indians are integral to the technological deep state. Exhibit A is that evil beyotch Vijaya Gadde that was in charge of deep state collusion at Twitter before she was axed by Musk.
And what about that cold, cold vermin twat Vanita Gupta? Barely confirmed as associate AG with RINO help. She is toxic to freedom and to everything else good that America stands for.
Luckily, neither China nor India have any impact on the global climate the WEF never STFU about.
If the Earth were a Global Democracy, India and the ballot collecting CCP would win.
Why are the Davos store fronts available?
The mainstream media carrying the “Deep State” message.
BTTT
The Modi government appears to have been good for India.
Because Davos is a town in Switzerland which is a capitalist country. So stores can rent out their front space for advertisements.
So the “stores” shut down or move to the back?
I can understand how the building owners feel about their short term residents, but it looks a bit weird.
India holds the key to hitting global climate change targetsand
India has sizeable and growing energy needs, and with this, comes the prospect of spiralling greenhouse gas emissions (GHGs).
The country has made huge strides in improving energy access, but needs to continue to develop the energy network and diversify its fuel mix.
China's pollution pledge,
Top environment and climate change stories: China's President Xi Jinping vowed to 'eliminate' air and water pollution;
India cant be trusted either. They are tight with Russia.
“India cant be trusted either. They are tight with Russia.”
Only because we are so tight with Pakistan.
Major priority for a competent president is to pivot to India. NATO + Japan + India is the alliance that will keep the world free.
Unfortunately America is tight with WEF, which is anti-American.
That’s funny right there.
China and India will actually DO squat about the “Green” idiocy initiative.
Actually both of them are working hard to clean up their act.
That’s because
1. their populations are getting affected with hotter summers and colder winters
2. moving to solar and wind for these countries that have deserts and land area is a win - they will not have to import so much oil and gas from outside.
“… solar and wind for these countries that have deserts and land area is a win…”
Yes, there are places where this does work better than other alternatives. For instance, when I went to Uganda I saw first hand how the lack of energy infrastructure and the unreliability of what existed (blackouts, brownouts, power surges) plus the existence of much sunshine makes solar panels a better option for certain places.
That’s not the case everywhere here in the US.
