I think you might over exaggerate the ethnic diversity in India and underexaggerate that in China. Linguistically there probably is about the same diversity in fact two main language groups, a national language Hindi taking the role of Putonghua and most importantly English. All universities teach in English and all educated people speak English. On the other hand, India does have some problems... and some other advantages over China.

Will be interesting to see how things develop in the next couple of decades.

Ok here my old buddy Mr. Buescher - was poor boy like me 10 years back - had a few animals on his farm - now it one of the biggest desination on Interstate 75 on the way down to orlando - and he got so rich he buying up cypress gardens - he ask me to invest many years ago - I thought he was an idiot - HAHA - dumb me. Long story on that one that basically goes along the lines if you owe the bank 1 million you got a problem, but if you owe them 100 million they got the problem - he got the banks in so deep and got so many locals sucked into his scheme - he got too big to fail - hehe - that is for another time.

no communist party of serious organization

I don't see how this is a negative - I hear Mr. China tell me the communist party HURT his investments and their red tape was a big HINDRANCE not help. He lost 400 million because of them.

not one single country, but 200 tribes

Great, instead of bargaining with crooked communist central authority I can get the tribes to compete over contracts making prices even lower - british did similar stuff to shaka zulu no?

literacy / education tradition / savings,

In global race to the bottom you want the cheapest worker you can get no? The new highly educated chinese will be like their american counterparts, too good for hard factory work, but not those dumb uneducated spearchuckers.

the multinationals only seriously entered china post 1992, what happened before had to be by internal attitude adjustment

I read too many times western business push for chinese growth in the 80's so they could get access to cheap chinese labor and that what brought it at the levels it came, and if they decide to push for african growth I still don't see a reason why they can't do the same in africa like they did in china. Maybe even better since they won't have so many powerful communists to pay off or corrupt.

If things were so bad with dealing with african tribes no way my friend Mr. Bescheur would have them flying over every 3-6 months staffing his 2 theme parks - that is real world, not theory. How is he doing it if it is so hard?
