India China Standoff: India Clears Chinese Investments in Electronics | Vantage with Palki Sharma

An inter-ministerial panel has greenlit investment proposals from Chinese firms in India's electronics manufacturing sector, marking a policy shift. Key approvals include Luxshare, a top Apple vendor, and a joint venture involving Huaqin Technology and the parent company of Micromax. This comes as India and China remain locked in a border standoff. In 2020, India had imposed strict restrictions on Chinese companies and investments. This was after troops from the PLA had provoked India in Eastern Ladakh. Palki Sharma tells you more.

You think the Chinese are fool? Their investment will never come back. Why should they invest in a hostile country? Because it's India?

[PranicEnergy]

Believe me, it is not easy to do business and make a profit in India. I speak from experience.

[萧笑生]

The biggest problem in India is that it cannot have a clear understanding of itself or others, and is best at combining criticism with self praise.

[jacintochua]

Doesn't matter. Indians have always opposed foreign investments. Many foreign investments have fled due to extortions from local bureaucrats and unreasonable interference. India will have to go alone.

[harisoepangkat]

This Hindu woman Palki didn't want to tell the truth: Modi lost the local election and the India's Ministry of Economy published a report saying that Chinese Investment was indispensable to India's exonomy development. Modi's short sightedness caused enormous losses to Indian economy.Apple ordered its main contractor Foxconn to pull out Apple mobile phone assembly plant out of India due to the unacceptably high quality problems in Indian factories. Palki practices Hindu face saving journalism. Hindu face must be saved at all cost.

[bobChristianson]

palki talks China everyday - but sadly india has nothing to compare with China

[ranx]

Why Chinese need to invest in India. All international investors lose money in India.. let them do their own thing.

[DogeshsinghKhandu]

People talking about chinese investment in India, but they will be quite when they know USA is largest investor in China from 2010😅.

[xgguo]

If India hesitates longer, all investment from China will go into South East Asia.
Huge investment in Thailand, Vienam, Indonesia, Malaysia, which become strong competitors to India.
Good Luck.

Between 2014 and 2021 nearly 2000+ foreign companies shut down their operations, many big-name multinational companies have struggled to succeed in India. According to the OECD, China saw a 90% drop in FDI inflows in 2023, which was expected as the West tries to decouple from China, with the US urging American companies to diversify away from China and bring manufacturing back home. The drop in China's FDI isn’t flowing into India either. In fact, FDI inflows to India were down by 54%.

This is happening because of their stupid policies. First, they will beg the investors to invest in India. After they invest frequently they change the policies during election or especially to protect the local businesses.


If you talk to people who have invested in India they will say "Indians talk big in the beginning but don't keep the promises"

[borissergijevic]

Sorry to say, but let's be honest: years ago was not India tries to reduce dependency on China, but to follow western interest at first, then practicing its pride, then India end up not even knowing what it wants to accomplish. Also, noone attacked anyone on the border, stop making drama. I hope India realises its mistakes and it will no longer hurting itself, so it will come its senses and hopefully build solid economical and diplomatic cooperation with China.

[OnGuard.]

If Europeans, Japanese and Americans can't even decouple themselves from China, who is india to think that it can. Changing it to de-risking won't do much either

[looking]

Palki Sharma has finally acknowledged the reality: India cannot thrive without Chinese investment and raw materials. After years of criticizing China, her actions have contributed to the loss of jobs for hundreds of thousands of Indians and negatively impacted Indian businesses. High time you stop your hate for China and Pakistan.

[jacintochua]

Indian government just declared American known brand Burger King as Indian. It's laughable. Whats next?
Starbucks?

[pohkhui]

Graveyard for multi national cooperations.

[JosephHoggang-bkbk]

India must swallow its big pride and accept Chinese business and products.

[yaoliang]

India is always a clown show, talk talk n more talk but sweeping empty air for all its efforts

[ikanmasin]

GDP of india per population are lower than Congo & Vanuatu, fiji, jamaica, el salvador, mongolia, suriname, namibia, marshall island, micronesia, eswatini, samoa, angola & are even 2 times smaller than GDP of the bancrupt Sri Lanka & etc etc etc. India is not comparable to China. India is miniscule if even compare to China.

[irritatedanglosaxon]

There were 3 types of superpower
1. Superpower that learn from the past and mistakes, yields 30+ gold medals, mould their invaders in their mind forever, knowing whom invaders apart from friends. Current renowned superpower, and quietly speaking. Want to Excel in every areas of life, raising their standard of life. Thriving and striving everyday. We call it Type C
2. Superpower that declining. Yield 30+ gold medals Insisting position and hegemony, don't hv self confidence, spark rumors and wars everywhere, say bad things about rivals on daily basis, at contrary say nice things to stupid nations, make the world chaos. Will let stupid nations die for them. Call it type A
3. Then the last one, wanna be superpower. Yield a pair or 0 gold medals but talk loudest. Call themselves a superpower 2020, 2030, 2040, 2050. Telling rumours, bad things about type C without concerning their poor and failed adjustment as nation. Glorifying and ready to serve their imperialists wishlists, made them as masters, colony mentality. We Call it type T

The biggest problem is electric power. India not only needs badly foreign investment but also hundreds of nuclear power plants to supply the power for the industry to produce goods for export. Due to India stealing the nuclear waste fuel to make a nuclear bomb in the first Canadian built nuclear power plant sold to India in the seventies last century, India has been black listed by the world on nuclear technology. Without electric power, India is nothing.
