Plus, not minus
The "India plus China" mood is growing in both countries.
Some people wonder whether India can ever catch up with China, pointing out China's remarkable achievements in infrastructure and manufacturing. Some others are apprehensive that the coming together of the two nations' corporate giants could pose a threat to Western multinationals.
But most Indians and Chinese seem to think differently. The cynics forget that neither India nor China has ever displayed any imperialist ambition in thousands of years of history, even when they were at their strongest.
Both nations know that they have important matters to handle like alleviation of rural poverty and enhancement of productivity, rather than confront each other militarily
Walking the talk is very difficult, but any how the world will observe that there is a possibility of forging a tie-up of two giants in the east, that's all. No more major gains for India and no more losses for China either.(and vice versa? don't think of it)
