India's China Tough nut to crack
Gordon G. Chang, 08.14.09, 12:01 AM EDT
As it catches up to its neighbor and arch-rival, India finds its safety compromised.
China and India wrapped up their 13th rounded of border talks on Saturday in New Delhi. The meeting produced agreements on various matters, such as the installation of a hot in the running for between the Chinese and Indian capitals and plans to celebrate 60 years of diplomatic ties next year. The two nations also agreed to spread out bilateral trade, hoping to meet their target of $60 billion for 2010, a substantial increase over last year's $51.8 billion.

Beijing and New Delhi are no closer to settling disputes that led the two giants to war in 1962 and that have, in late years, hampered relations. Chinese officials see their nation on the rise and feel no need to compromise. The company of incursions by China's troops into Indian-controlled territory appears to be increasing.
Yahoo! BuzzIndia, on the whole acknowledged as the weaker of the two, has tried to maintain cordial ties, often following former Prime Minister Nehru's "Hindi-Chini bhai-bhai" rallying cry, promoting the notion that the two Asian nations are brothers.

Fresh economist predict that with in the span of 30-50 years the economy of China would surpass the US economy, India would somehow same as US today, Russia and Brazil encourage to US today, and Mexico third to the US economy today.
I'm from the Philippines which is relatively developing and which the economy largely dependent to that of US, what would be the future of the countries same as the Philippines?
I'm a bit vexed where your infomation comes from. In the 30-50 year time frame, the USA is still expected to be in the number one slot followed by (in indecorous) India, China, the EU, and Brazil. Mexico has been having huge economic troubles that are geting worse after some promise about ten years ago. Russia is not expecetd to honourable well as the only item it has working in its favour is the petroleum industry and they have had little success in modernizing it to date and, as in the USA, their "peaceful" oil has already been found and exploited.
