Australia, New Zealand, Japan.........The Cities...; All what has been idustrialised zones the last hundred years, benefits, as contributors to the growth of chinese economy. Pesimists predict they will be swallowed by the malignant tumor of prole dictatorial secretariat sentralism. Though similtaneous demonic posession, by the forces of liberal economics, on the poor unsoiled vessel of the peoples republic, seems likely. But how much of the fully grown market will belong to "classic" western products is another story.
There are many variables there, but I don't think Beijing will be able to keep a to tight of a leash on the PRC for too much longer. I think the Triads will have a big effect on that, in addition to the Russian Mafia. I think if Beijing cracks down to much on the free market I think the Triads will move north, possibly hooking up with the Russian Mafia, which would be bad news for Beijing. They opened the door a crack, they won't be able to close it again. But that has nothing to do with India. If India turns to consumer culture that is a huge market. Good for world business to raise the standard of living in India. They have huge amounts of the factors of production, all they need is the influx of capital to become an economic giant.
Yes it is, and on current growth rates it's tipped to overtake China by the middle of the century. India is already well-penetrated by marketing and advertising companies, thanks to its colonialisation by the British over 100 years ago. But yes, it is nonetheless a hotbed of activity. But the main game at the moment is being played out in China, because there capitalism is a very recent phenomenon.
Count me out Xerx as a pessimist regarding the economy. But I am pessimistic about the huge demands these two areas will have on the petroleum market. Yeah Dio the whole triad, mafia issue puts a different spin that should be estimated. Makes you wonder where the line stops between government manipulations independent to organized crime when it comes to either Russian or Chinese intelligence agencies. I bet marketing companies were anticipating an explosion in these markets years ago. With Japanese car manufacturers bringing in factories to the area along with American services related call centers. One should wonder what powers that be were reading between the lines and making investments into future economic growth years ago.
