  Never underestimate the poverty of India. India is huge and while in some places there are bubbles of wealth, it's still a third-world country.

  India is a lot like Russia in that its people and standards of living are very different from place to place. China, despite a larger size and similar population is more culturally uniform than India, especially once you go in more remote areas. (this is not a diss on India, i think that make the country much more interesting)

      Yes but this sentiment has held true since before the CCP.
