Everyone should be concerned about India and China. I can’t think of two countries that are greater risk to the rest of the world, whether Japan or the United States.
India has absolutely nothing that Japan should be envious of. The latter is an overcrowded and mismanaged sewer of humanity that needs to clean up their act, stop crapping and dumping garbage into their ‘holy’ rivers, and practice a little contraception for cryin out loud.
India has more than 10 times Japan’s population.
It should have a ten times greater economy.

Japan - bump for later....
I’m guessing the ‘angst’ is mere ‘journalist’ projection. What matters is per capita assessments and quality of life.
India is nasty...
Learn from Argentina, Japan.
If Argentina stays the course, it will become the richest country in South America and probably one of the top ten economies of the world.
Japan has had an abysmally low birthrate for the longest time. Its not surprising at all.
If Indian economic aspects are so great, why are so many Indians migrating to America?
To provide some perspective that the article leaves out.
Largest 2023 economies by gdp:
1. US. $27 trillion
2. China. $18 trillion
3. Germany $4.4 trillion
4. Japan $4.2 trillion
5. India $3.8 trillion
If Japan doesn’t want to lose it’s place in the world they need to get back to making things. Starting with babies.
It’s a shame because Japanese kids’ mathematical and science skills are very good, but later, corporate bureaucracy is very deep
Japan needs to get their birthrate up. NO africans or muslimes, either. A DICTATOR or a STRONGMAN needs to take back Japan from a social aspect. OR maybe a cultural minister doing his thing would help. No more manga, and that school girl furry trans cartoon shit they’ve had going on over there for 30 years. Get the men to be more manly and get the women to accept their true role in a prosperous and strong society
Japan’s GDP per capita has essentially flatlined (actually declined slightly) since 1995, and is not even 1/2 that of the USA.
Back around 2000 someone said the Japanese economy was “a bug in search of a windshield”. It looks like it still is. Or maybe it’s just sort of a slow implosion. The demographics is disastrous too: It’s one thing to have a declining population, it’s another to have a declining population AND a stalled economy. By comparison, South Korea’s population growth has essentially stopped, but their GDP per capita is still rising. Given the world catching on fire, South Korea’s large growth as a weapons supplier may well keep their rising GDP per capita... rising.
Everything is made up. How can a country that is covered in garbage, whose people lie to every non-indian as easily as they breathe, use the streets to defecate, bathe and eat literal cow dung, and not understand the dangers of being close to a train, possibly surpass Japan’s economy? Japan has tons of material and cultural exports. India is a third world country and will always stay that way.
China is questionable. China is in depression from which it can not recover in the foreseeable future.
What was, isn’t
The opposite is true of India. India has finally overcome and removed the fear of colonial rule. India has no communist disease to inhibit capitalism. Having the largest population of any nation on earth, it is rational to assume a very large economy.
And why wouldn’t a nation with the largest population become a larger economy than a nation with 1/11th its population?
