Reform results

-- Massive changes: opening to the world,transformed business landscape, ITpowerhouse, emerging world-class firms

-- But lopsided growth: benefits urban middleclasses but not the vast majority of the poor unlike China


31/41


Reform gaps

-- Unreformed agriculture

-- Lack of labour-intensive manufacturing and throttledlabour markets-- Overregulated, underperforming services sectors-- Remaining trade and FDI barriers-- Remaining capital controls-- The unreformed Indian state

Politics

-- The most difficult country to govern: vast, hugelydiverse, split so many different ways

-- Messy democratic politics: multi-party coalitions at thecentre; kaleidoscope of musical-chair politics in thestates

-- But advantages (compared with China): unity andstability; checks and balances; British-endowed liberalinstitutions; the English language; political and civicfreedoms


36/41


Focus (1)

-- The states in a federal system

-- Growth engines in the south and west (with outliers)-- Policy reforms and business transformation: e.g. TamilNadu, Karnataka, Andhra Pradesh, Maharashtra,Gujarat, Punjab, Haryana

-- Key sectors, NRIs and FDI-- Transformation of India: a bottom-up, not a top-down

story


37/41


Focus (2)

-- Indias expanding demand for higher (andlower) education: insufficient, low-qualitysupply; foreign investment prospects;reform hurdles


38/41


Prospects

-- The big picture: the new Asian Drama

-- Asias transformation of the world economy: much morecompetition; gains for the West and the Rest; but moredifficult adaptation required; wider inequalities; the

middle-class squeeze; the middle-income trap

-- Role of India in the new Asian Drama
