Mr. President Obama, how giant a buffalo might be it can’t become a lion by casting a vote of support thereto. Somalia is far better, may be supported for bringing her in the club of world big five, for Somalia unlike India is not sitting on UN Security Council Resolutions for more than 60 years in re: Kashmir!!!
Mr. President Obama, you are worry about Burma, which is an independent country but you could not feel the least about Indian Brahmin Terrorism in the IHK and who martyred more than 80,000 Kashmiri men, women, & children thus far simply because Kashmiris want freedom!!! However, Mr. President Barack Obama, thanks to you & your country for calling spade a spade in Bharat speaking generally.
After all some of the members are very badmouthing, I don’t know why, perhaps they don’t find to how cope with argument.
Largest & biggest are as different as sentimental & emotional are. Delicacies in words can’t be found in dictionaries; it can be seen & felt in spoken language. Sentimental connotes constructiveness in excitement etc while emotional connotes quite opposite.
I mean to say that India certainly is a big country in terms of population & territory but size alone does not determine destinies. For instance South Korea, Taiwan and some Scandinavian countries are smaller countries for sure in terms of size but they have gone far away in terms of all round advancement, aren’t they? India therefore needn’t begin dancing at President Obama’s vote of support in favor of India in her bid for securing place in Security Council.
India's per capita GDP is $1,032 while Pakistan's per capita GDP is $1,067 so divide theirs by 1.3 billion and ours by 170 million and you will find the real worth of both.
Not to hurt the heart of anyone I used metaphor of Buffalo & Lion. Buffalo has got a size but is very very deficient otherwise, so she can never ever become Lion, for Lion is a king in their world & buffalo is a cheap laborer at the most.
India has per capita GDP $1,032, but she has got 1.3 billion mouths too!!!
Abisafyan - I have a feeling you do not understand the difference between Per capita Income and Gross domestic product.
The per capita income is multiplied by the population to get GDP (not divide).
These days most statistics are based on the PPP method, which is more reflective of the actual living standards.
If you see the attached chart (CIA is a reliable USA site) you will realise that Pakistan is lagging behind India in PCI - $3200, to $2400 in 2009. This trend will become greater over time as Pakistan’s growth rate is under 1%, whereas India’s growth rate is 8-9% pa.
PCI wise China is way behind the rest of the world at just over $6000. Because of the large population, the GDP of India (& China) is massive, and this is what the world acknowledges.
what's the point comparing gdp, pci etc? just consider this - if foreign aid & loans don't come in, 23% of entire federal budgeted receipts are kaput. This is a major risk and perhaps Pakistan's second worst risk, after terrorism.
India is a poor country. While the growth rates & potential economic expansion over the the next 15 years are very high, right now it is not yet a major economic power.

23 percent! What else they teach in indian schools.. Oh btw do you know which paradise is the beggist charity queen of S. Asia?
huh? the 23% stat is from you government's website. Are you claiming your government published budget from your government's official website is bs?
so what is your point, does that negate Indias massive charity sector with the US/UK/West contribution that runs in billions. Bill & Melinda Gate foundation alone donate hundreds of millions. And that brings me to the point of pot calling kettle black. Living glass houses and throwing stones!

India attracts massive amounts of charity, I'm not sure that's anything for a poor country, albeit rising very fast, to balk at. It's a good thing. The Bill and Melinda Gates foundation is very smart about how and where they put their money. The Gates foundation only donates where they can make a noticeable and lasting impact. They're making an impact in India, as are other charities.
India also has a large network of charitable organizations that are able to quickly and effectively put any money they receive to good use. Unlike the Indian government, the charities aren't corrupt, bloated, and show how and where their donated money is being dispensed. India's charity sector is quite a shining example of Indian ingenuity, in both collecting money and distributing services.
I don't think Indians or Pakistanis are should in anyway disparage charitable giving. Afterall, Pakistan is still in need of relief for the victims the recent floods.

Nice spin - For Pakis it would be begging but for an Indian its genius and shining like India shining.. LMAO.... Even beggars have sense of humor. :)

since you ask, I am glad to reiterate my point.
Abisafyan was comparing GDP, PCI etc between Pakistan adn India for whatever reason. I pointed out that all that meaningless since the Pakistan federal government's national budget relies on 23% of funds coming through grants and loans externally. Hope that is clear.
You questioned the 23% number as something taught in Indian schools - I showed you that the number is from Pakistan government's own official website.
… I love listening this
