India - China Relationship Part 1

  • Based on my visit to Hong Kong and Shenzhen, China I present the following suggestions.
  • BRICS tournament must be considered for major sports like football, badminton, tennis, table tennis & athletes. The sports should be ones in which we need to improve in Olympics and global level and improve friendly relationship and Indian athletes should learn more. First time the BRICS can be in different country other than India and china probably south Africa because South Africa is very submissive in BRICS always or because if India initiates we can have but we have a bad name for conducting sports better to ask someone else to do the same and learn from how they start the process and do effectively. Cricket not necessary if China interested alone you provide because Cricket is a bad sport and doesn’t help athlete's. The BRICS tournament we should see as way to improve ourselves in all sports and to promote tourism within us. If tournament not possible at least BRICS football tournament. Since we are not good in football they might sent their B-team so we must make sure they sent actual team which play for FIFA.
  • China has smart cities by monitoring roads 24/7. But we don’t have cameras anywhere in roads except toll gates we must consider having cameras and speed guns to monitor the roads and any problems.
  • Chinese don’t visit India due to language issue and long distance of travel. Our aircrafts don’t operate much direct flights also to China and Hong Kong, china. We must allow Indian airlines to compete and start offering direct flights or transit flights in these routes. For example Chennai -Hong Kong or Chennai to Bangkok or Chennai –Bangkok – Hong Kong or Chennai –Hong Kong –Shanghai no Indian carriers operate. All want to use only Mumbai route or Delhi route only and currently foreign airlines operate in this route. So we must operate Indian flights in this route like Jet or Air India or 5/20 rule must be removed for routes which no Indian carrier operated till now on first come first serve basis for 5 airlines or ask them reasons on why not operating when foreign flights are full.
  • NIC with C-DAC must create translation service on demand through toll free number from all over India and globe if a person calls that number and speaks the words the toll free number must grasp and translate to any of the prominent Indian languages or foreign languages like English, Mandarin, Cantonese, French, etc,. To enable both Indian tourists and foreign tourists  both in India and abroad. For foreign travellers in India it should be made free to enable tourism and Indian tourists travelling to north India who don’t know Hindi can use to communicate to local people or also based on message also translation if possible. Currently google offers if the same in voice might help public to communicate quickly after putting phone in loud speakers and talking in app format or toll free number to promote tourism. Chinese people speak mandarin and Cantonese and don’t know English little bit also. So Hindi-English-Cantonese translation must be primary target.
  • Chinese guides on demand or toll free support centres must be opened. Those who want guides to travel with them also Govt and  Indian tourism board to work out strategy to provide at hotels or ask hotels to have more guides more available.
