Anyone, who looks behind to see who’s on their heel. will befall the same fate as all the suitors of the lovely Atalanta in Greek Mythology, who was the fastest runner in the world.

Again, in any urban setting in India, the Malls are an eco-system as good as any experience in China.
But I thought, I would include it just for kicks and clicks. 😏
Zeno’s answer: NEVER.😫

Poka Yoke: Make the design of the systems, so that even “village idiots” (there are many) won’t be able to make things worse in the Eco-system and ruin your experiences.
So, if China were at all worried, like Hippomenes, that India would overtake them in this “race” that they are not worried about, then they will like Hippomenes toss some thorny crab apples* to distract the nattering classes in India.

But is this what we want to emulate? I don’t know the answer to that?
Any suitor, who wanted to win speedy Atalanta’s hand would have to beat her in a race and if they lose, they would lose their heads.
Beyond that how logical would it be for one to pick a number based on the number of trips, the Planet Earth makes around the Sun?

Look at each individual Eco-system within your immediate environs, that works in your land, in your local Area and if you are not discomfited, then all is fine. “Experience” is the key here.
Another Example from Greek Mythology: Hippomenes and Atalanta race. [This is a warning to my country, the USA, really]
Well for starters, “Vishwa Parihasa ” must run at a ‘faster’ pace than “Dung Po Pew ”.

So what I’m suggesting is that rather than constantly comparing and tearing one’s clothes in agony, employ what the Japanese call “Nemawashi” and Poka Yoke
Airports: ECO-SYSTEM.

Any Bank in an urban setting, used to be the equivalent of the famous play by Samuel Becket “Waiting for Godot”, except back then in India, decades ago.
The model that prompts such a question is based on a “Circus Maximus” model in which Chariot races were run in ancient Rome, where Individual Nations in this example, are run like Chariots. Some are ahead, while some are behind and we are all spectators here.

Now for some areas of discomfort.

I’ve heard this proverb before: Fools build Houses and Wise Men live in them.
Maybe I should Poka Yoke and Nemawashi my writings as well. 😂😂
Don’t constantly engage in below the navel gazing, if you know what I mean and most of all Don’t Complain; or at least not so much.
Excellent staff from all over India. Amazing competence and professionalism shown by all from Doctors to Nurses to technicians, even the lift staff. 👏👏👏
The other factor is TIME. This is where the paradox comes in.
These Airports are an Ecosystem, where I’m far more ‘comfortable” and have a more ‘pleasurable experience’ than at La Guardia Airport or JFK Airport in New York $hitty. (misspelled intentionally).
I generally don’t place a time scale on who is ahead or who is behind and by how many years in this “Game of Nations”.

Give yourselves a round of applause. 👏👏👏
That is all that matters really.
China did that and still does that too. And I can’t understand complaints by the US and Russians here.
India has a space program that seeks to reap military as well as civilian benefits in this so-called race which there is none.
Your Corner D-Marts gave me the same “experience” as any that I had in Japan, China or Korea.
This begs the question.

There is the Greek Philosopher Zeno’s paradox.
Now, it is an experience that is just as good or not as good as any Bank Office in the US or China or any where else.
Instead of giving GDP numbers, GDP/Capita and all those Statistics to make you feel good or bad, I decided to answer Nagarajan Sir’s question in the form of a long meandering discourse.
I don’t know. I know that if I were young, my sex drive would plummet, Viagra or not.
This so-called race is in my opinion, a Phantasm, that only exists in people’s mind and I would wager that this Phantasm chiefly exists, it seems in India- which is looking at China with a mixture of envy and jealousy.
China is a polity; India is a polity. So far so good.
What is it that you folks wants to ‘Catch up” here??? Just asking not telling.
They, in turn, have eyes only for the Good Ole USA.
So, here is my proposition.
Malls and Cinema Metroplexes
D-Marts etc.
Viswa Parihasa and Dung Poo Pew Parodox per Zeno
This paradox argues that Viswa Parihasa, a swifter than Dung runner, can never overtake the slower Dung Poo Pew, who has a head start by the way, because by the time Viswa Parihasa reaches the Dung's starting point, Dung will have moved forward, and Viswa must then catch up to that new position, repeating this process… ad infinitum.
Here it is an Eco-system where both Dung and Vishwa seem to be competing for the race to the bottom of the well. 🙄
Coming back to Greek Philosophy this time.
There is no shame, if one wants to repeat the technology, that was developed by the pioneers such as Russia and the US. The guide book and protocols are all there to emulate (Copy).
Petty Corruption. My mainland Chinese American friends, who travel back and forth to China assure me that petty Corruption is well and alive in China and the ranking by Transparency International, which monitors ‘perception of corruption’ in nations, ranks both India and China about equal. So that seems about right. 🙄
Never understood what it meant, but now in the winter of my years, I now realize what that means. 😁
Let us assume that the Polity called “Dung Poo Pew ” is ahead of the Polity called “Vishwa Parihasa” in some mythical race.
You were “Waiting for your “Dough”
Hippomenes won the hand in marriage of Atalanta following a running race by distracting her by tossing “golden apples” whenever, he thought, she was gaining on him.
Hospitals
I land at Hyderabad or Bangalore Airports. The airports are spotless, well maintained, orderly and the people follow all the rules, the security is run smoothly like clockwork. The Uber and Taxi System is excellent and smoothly run. So is the Baggage Carousel, Immigration, Customs, etc. etc. WOW!
Look instead at Pockets of Comfort created within your immediate environs.
Give yourself an applause here. 👏👏👏
I will even wager one of my shares in JD. Com ( a Chinese MNC) that most Chinese are not even bothered to see, if India is “lagging” behind them.
Not many will agree with Zeno, because he is a Mlechha Yavana Barbarian.😂😂after all.
Would that be logical? Yes!
Many lost their heads, as they looked behind to see if Atalanta was gaining on them . Hippomenes was given a head start by Atalanta.
