India, China skill levels give UK the shivers RAJAS KELKAR TIMES NEWS NETWORK[ SATURDAY, DECEMBER 04, 2004 01:13:02 AM] LONDON: Gordon Brown, the UK’s chancellor of the exchequer, unveiled a new strategy to tackle challenges from emerging economies like India and China. The importance attached to the issue is significant as the pre-budget report released on Thursday has India mentioned in it 25 times, along with China. The report states that the rapid growth of large emerging markets, in particular India and China, is shifting the balance of global economic activity.
