It is not a fare comparison to make, Vietnam is only 90 million peoples, it is much more historically, culturally and social integrated as a society, it has a tightly controlled command economy that is very very good at getting things done, it has a highly motivated work force and peripheral experience of the manufacturer ing supply chain, the leadership has well defined national development goals and the means to deliver them.

India is a new nation created from the British Raj of over a billion people， in a de ocratic federal system with weak central Government, more than 100 languages and 250 dialects with no integrated infrastructure and a whole sub continent to contend with.

这种比较并不公平，越南只有九千万人口，它在历史、文化和社会上更加一体化，国家有严格的控制经济，非常擅长把事情办好，它有积极向上的劳动力和制造业供应链带来的外围经验，国家领导已经明确规定了国家发展目标以及实现这些目标的手段。

印度是一个新兴国家，是英属印度统治下的10多亿人民组成的，在一个民*的联邦制度下，中央政府薄弱，有着100多种语言和250种方言，没有完整的基础设施和整个次大陆可与之抗衡。

Totally differen scenarios. How ever I would say while Vietnam has been incredibly dynamic and focused since 1996 India has not. The decades 1979 to 1999 were wasted opportunities for India compared to and ASEAN，now she is begining to pick up her game but it will be hard, look at Modi struggles to pass a basic sales tax, India needs national and state based nationally looking infrastructure urgently.

So Vietnam has one major back bone highway, one major rail route，one national telco，one main airline, one main language， two principal cities，5 —7 regional centres, a national education system, one police, customs and civil service， one set of laws， one set of holidays, one main and 2 more minor religions but India has that in every state.

两个国家是完全不同的。越南自1996年以来一直充满活力，而且一直专心致志，而印度不是这样。与和东盟相比，对印度来说1979年至1999年间的几十年就是白白浪费了机会，现在印度开始向越南学习，但是很难，看看莫迪为通过销售税而苦苦挣扎，印度急需以国家和国家为基础的基础设施。

因此，越南有一条主要干线公路，一条主要铁路线路，亿个国家电信，一家主要航空公司，一种主要语言，两个主要城市，五至七个区域中心，一个全国教育系统，一个警察、海关和公务员制度，一个法律体系，一系列假期，一个主要宗教和两个小宗教。但印度的每个州都有不同宗教。

Vietnam look much more modern and developed ??

• First, that is Vietnam ‘s normal development appearance, Vietnamese working hard to get that achievement . It’s not fake “Look like” for you to watch, If you go to Vietnam, you will see that truth of Development of Vietnam
• After 20 year trade embargo from US ( ended in 1995) , Vietnamese working hard to catching up others Asia nations , we know that we live in shorter peace than them, we’re unlucky nation, So we must be hard working more & more
• Vietnam’s development you can see through the North , Middle to South: Hanoi, HCM city, Danang, Nhatrang, Vungtau, Halong, Vinh, Haiphong wih ton of Skyline and construction here, we also have ton of famous Tourist Cities like Hoian, Sapa, Dalat, PhuQuoc island , Halong, Muine, bomb Construction & building,

越南看起来更现代、更发达？？

• 第一，这是越南的正常发展面貌，越南人努力工作才取得了这一成就。“看起来像”并不是假象，如果你真的去到越南，你就会看到越南发展的真相。
• 经过美国20年的贸易禁运（1995年结束），越南人努力追赶其他亚洲国家，我们知道我们的和平时期比他们短，我们是不幸的国家，所以我们必须更加努力工作。
• 越南的发展你可以从北、中到南都看到：河内、HCM城、大浪、芽庄、头顿、夏朗、荣市、海防，这里有数以吨计的天际线和建筑，我们还有一众著名旅游城市，如会安、沙帕、达拉、佩特岛、夏朗等等。

Vietnam development through the country, de-central economics, So Vietnam ‘s development totally different with Asia nation like Thailand, Malaysia, Phillpin, or Indoensia who only focus in their Capital cities

That why Vietnam “modern and development” will spread to all Vietnamese in every provinces and cities

• Vietnam economics focus on all people can get the rich, all people can do business, free capitalism everywhere , Ton of Viet Tycoon, Rich people rising, especial Vietnamese Middle income rising fast in the world

your question truly considered that Vietnam development is Fake so you put “look like “ words in your sentences?

越南的发展是全国性的国家，经济去中心化，所以越南的发展完全不同于亚洲国家，如泰国，马来西亚，菲律宾，或印第安那州，他们只关注首都一个城市。

正因为如此，越南的“现代化与发展”会惠及每个省市的每个越南人。

• 越南经济模式的重点是，人人都能致富，人人都能做生意，自由zb主义无处不在，越南大亨众多，富人越来越多，越南中等收入人群在世界范围内迅速增多。

你的问题在于你认为越南的发展不真实，所以你用了“看起来像”这样的字眼。

It's a matter of priorities.

-India is far too obsessed about its defence equipment. It is currently the biggest importer of of defence weaponry in the world.

-It is currently engaged in a high intensity spy op in Pakistan thru Balochistan, and needs to spend a lot of money which goes unaccounted for.

-India has strong caste and creed system with people like scheduled classes. These people, dalits, will over time, 1000 year laters be still scheduled classes, since in hindu religion, a dalit cannot be equal to a brahmin or any higher caste in terms of status and money brings you status and standard.

-India has too much population. It is growing at the fastest rate in the world and india cannot uplift these people. has done that through population control but india is not willing to do that since it will not work in india and also that hindus in india feel threatened by growing muslim population.

-india has most poverty in the world which contributes to bringing down the per capita considerably, although educated people might earn normally.

Chances are that india despite its growth will never be able to really perform as a developed country because of its inherent hodge podge of religions, castes, creeds, nations living there. And poverty will continue to grow and people will earn less and less since population is exploding at alarming rate.

这就是一个关于优先等级的问题。

印度对国防装备过于痴迷。它是目前世界上最大的国防武器进口国。

-印度目前在巴基斯坦通过俾路支进行高强度的间谍活动，需要花费大量金钱，而且很多钱下落不明。

-印度有很强的种姓和教义制度，人们喜欢预留制。这些人，达利特，就算1000年后仍然还是会预留种姓，因为在印度教中，贱民在地位和金钱方面不能跟婆罗门或任何更高的种姓平起平坐。

-印度人口过多。它的速度增长是全球最快，但印度不能提升这些人。已经通过人口控制做到了这一点，但是印度不愿意这样做，因为它在印度不起作用，而且印度人受到msl人口不断增长的威胁。

-尽管受过教育的人收入水平可能正常，但印度的贫困程度是全世界最高的，这大大降低了人均收入。

由于印度固有的宗教、种姓、教义、民族大杂烩，尽管印度发展迅速，但它可能永远无法真正成为一个发达国家。由于人口增长速度惊人，贫困将越来越明显，人们的收入将越来越少。

Depends on what context you're asking - economically, from a travel perspective, culturally, etc.

From a culture and travel point of view, it is almost difficult to compare the two. Both India and Vietnam are countries blessed with stunning landscapes, sheer natural beauty, best of cuisines (maybe India takes a slight lead on this one), rich culture, beautiful cities, local traditional villages, rich heritage, and so much more!

Economically, India stands at a much better place than Vietnam. India is a booking IT hub, and is technologically nearly at par with the most developed countries of the world. India is way more industrialized than Vietnam. Also, Vietnam comes no where close to India when it comes to military might and overall clout in Asia.

这取决于你基于哪方面，是经济，旅行，还是文化等等。

从文化和旅游的角度来看，这两国难分伯仲。印度和越南都拥有迷人的风景、纯粹的自然美景、最好的美食（也许印度在这方面稍微领先一些）、丰富的文化、美丽的城市、当地的传统村庄、丰富的遗产等等。

经济上，印度比越南好得多。印度是IT中心，在技术上几乎与世界上最发达国家相当。印度比越南工业化程度要高得多。此外，越南在亚洲的军事实力和总体影响力方面无法跟印度相提并论。

Two travellers A anrd B start from city X to city Y which are 500 miles apart.

They both leave at 6am and arrive by 4pm. They both had stops for meals, restroom, cooling off, puncture etc.

Someone who just looks at the start time and end time will conclude that they both drove at an average speed of 50mph.

Someone who observed A when B was taking breaks would say that A is faster, while someone who observed B when he was trying to make up for time lost would say that B is faster. They would both be opposed by the one who observed them when they were moving together.

I don't know much about Vietnam, but maybe it is in the faster phase of development and comparing with India without looking at overall picture is as futile as comparing the 2 drivers above by looking at their driving for 10 mins only. Besides we don't even know whether they have the same car, same number of passengers, same level of experience etc.

两个旅行者分别A、B城出发到X、Y城，路程500英里。

他们早上6点离开，下午4点到。他们都停下来吃饭、上卫生间、休息等。

只要看一下开始和结束时间，就会得出结论，他们都以平均每小时50英里的速度行驶。

在B休息时看到A的人会说A更快，而在B追赶的时候看到B的人会说B更快。

我不太了解越南，但是也许它正处于快速发展的阶段，与印度相比，不看整体情况就毫无意义。此外，我们也压根不知道他们的车，乘客人数，驾驶经验等是不是一样。

That's why Vietnamese is smarter than Indians. They are becoming more richer than Indians. They spend their money wisely to speed up the economical development, although there are dispute here and there too. In particular, Vietnam has been using India to get involved into the disputes where India has no disputes initially, in order to divert the dispute from Vietnam to India.

这就是越南比印度人更聪明的原因。他们正变得比印度人更富有。他们合理消费以加速经济发展，尽管也面对种种争议。越南一直利用印度参与争端，印度最初没有争端，以便将争端从越南转嫁给印度。

surely is Indian, They have a good evironment policy and they have more technical people than Vietnam. Vietnam still develop with planing  economic strategy therfore they face with many problem when they develop, ie: corruption and imballance between demand and productive, The structure of economic is not suitable and the bank system is not clear

当然是印度，他们的环境政策很好，技术人员比越南多。越南发展至今仍以计划经济战略为依托，在发展中面临许多问题，如腐败、需求与生产的不平衡、经济结构不合理、银行体制不明确等。

First you need to be clear as to where you went in India and where in Vietnam. You might have traveled just a couple of cities. India is a very strong economy and is extremely stable. It is because the government policy has little impact on most of the trade done by its people. The on paper analysis is unreliable because it just does not have the right statistic - as it is never collected.

首先，你必须清楚，你去了印度和越南的哪儿。你可能只去过两个城市。印度是一个非常强大的经济体，非常稳定。这是因为政府的政策对其人民所做的大部分贸易没有什么影响。纸上谈兵并不可靠，因为它并没有正确的统计-因为从未收集过。
