Expanding China-India cooperation

By Naren Chitty | China Daily | Updated: 2011-09-28 08:05

India and China are neighboring ancient civilizations, which have exchanged people, goods and ideas over time. If mutual attraction for each other's deep philosophical values and culture, evident in their engagement with Buddhism, draws them together, geopolitics draws them apart. But the concept of harmony, the heart of Buddhism and Confucianism both, is the quintessence of both civilizations.

Today, India emphasizes the harmony of its union of states, marked by linguistic groups of incredible diversity. These groups are held together by the bonds of political pluralism, and its tourism slogan, "Incredible India", captures its demographic and democratic diversity.

China's emphasis is on a more cohesive genre of political order that values an unruffled harmony, which delivers prosperity efficiently. The projection of China to the world through the Beijing 2008 Olympic Games effectively delivered this message.
