At the same time, India cannot lose the Chinese market. It has to be said that India’s clamor for boycotting "Made in China" is very real. In order to attract China, they have begun to choose discounted rice exports to China. As the world's largest rice exporter, India has recently revealed that it will export non-basmati rice to China at low prices. Most of these rice are used to make noodles and fermented rice. If India really does not need China, then why should it export rice to China? He is tough on his lips, but he is very real in action.
Some Indian experts said that China’s choice of importing rice from India at this time was probably due to the impact of the XX virus, which hit the countries that originally exported rice to China and increased the price of rice exports, thus making China has changed the owner of imports. Turning to India, the competitiveness of Indian rice is still very high, the price is affordable, and China has imported several thousand tons this time. India simply gave a discount to China. The Ministry of Agriculture of China expressed its happiness.
China and India actually approved the qualification of Indian rice to enter China as early as ten years ago. It was not until 2018 that China and India signed an agreement on the import of non-basmati rice. In fact, China does not want to use rice as a raw material for the adjustment and processing. Some of China's original rice exporters, who were relatively fixed, could hardly protect themselves, and of course they would not export at the original price.
It can be seen from this phenomenon that India actually needs the Chinese market. China has such a large population and such a large consumer group. Isn’t it very unwise that India does not cherish it? The two sides have done business well before. Yes, but the Indian government suddenly changed its mind and announced the prohibition of the use of Chinese communication products and Chinese software. I don't know if it was because American officials visited India. The United States also wanted to pull India into the team against China.
But the Indian side really "got this trick". After banning and restricting the import of Chinese products, many Indian companies, especially small and medium-sized enterprises, can no longer sustain themselves. They have stopped production, closed down, and laid off employees. This makes India, which is deeply affected by the virus, even worse. India’s economy has suffered severely because of this. The people are not living for a living. They have expressed their dissatisfaction with the Modi government. They believe that through this incident of rice export, India should be brought to life. The senior management noticed that India still needs the Chinese market.
To be honest, with India’s current strength, it is really very difficult to be self-sufficient. It is not to underestimate India, but India’s current national conditions do not allow him not to communicate with the outside world. Although India has a population It is similar to China, but the income, purchasing power, and per capita consumption level of the common people are far behind that of China, and these gaps cannot be filled in a short while. This requires long-term persistence. If the country is blocked, it is unwilling to engage in economic and trade with other countries. Contacts, it will only be more detrimental to India. Looking at the world now, no country really says: "I can achieve rapid economic growth without the Chinese market."
Of course, the Indian government announced it. "Self-sufficiency" policy, but it really depends on the demands of the people. When China comes to do business, "fools" will refuse. In fact, the Indian people have been cooperating with Chinese companies. It is impossible to say that it is impossible not to cooperate, and it is unrealistic to say that it is completely prohibited. In 2019, the bilateral trade volume between China and India has reached more than 630 billion yuan. This is a very large number. It cannot be banned as long as it is banned. Therefore, these policies of the Indian government are just empty talk.
