    German firms cite bureaucracy, corruption and India’s tax system as investment hurdles

    Good job not mentioning rising nationalism and authoritarianism. Surely “change through trade” (“Wandel durch Handel”) will work this time. :/

      To a certain degree that is probably counted as a positive, as long as you bribe the correct people you can do all the fucked up shit you want and nobody will dare to question it.

        You can’t put Indian democracy and Chinese One-Party government into the same bowl. India isn’t that inhuman as China is.

          Are we both talking about the same country that that’s been trying to take away citizenship from its Muslim population? The country that validated the violent and illegal destruction of a mosque decades ago by building a huge Hindu temple in its place? The country that’s been putting a lot of money into armament? The country building out its pharmaceutical industry on the back of the poorer parts of its populatiom?

          No, not the same country, but very similar tendencies.
