Developed countries, preventing development of other countries by unhealthy competition?

One aspect which is Interesting is how, whenever India achieves something that is commendable, the developed countries tend to trace it to some knowhow, quipment or man power that was provided by the west. It is greatly amusing, how the development of other countries scares and pierces the developed countries, turning them green with envy, esp, USA. For e.g., India became one of the four nations to have a satellite launch facility in 1980 with the launch of Rohini. Within a week, news originated from USA, Germany, and others that India had stolen it from USA. The technology was completely indeginious,it used sharing logic software for its first stage that was the first of its kind in the world. As for Scout, the American SLV from which was alleged the techbology was picked only the fifth launch had proved successfully, in contrast to the indian SLV. Another instance is Prithvi missile, which had used a particular gyo system, with an unique software, which nobody in the world had tried. It had other innovations too: including the thrust termination. Today, Prithvi is probably the best in payload capability. But the west couldn't bear to see India rising. Same was with the unique 'Agni' in which USA, and Germany wanted to take credit. Agni has an entirely new gudance technolgy, able to maneoivre the paykoad and the complete re-entry hypersonic flow was stimulated in the Computational Fluid Dyanamics in one of the best computers tht India had herself designed. It also uses a specially designed material. Same was with the Pokhran nuclear tests, that used an entirely new, innovative triggering mechanism. It is really amusing that the Americans think that it is only with their technology that the world can suceed. When will American learn to appreciate others achievements? When will they accept that they are not the best? When will they mature?

Automobile industry in india

The automobile industry in India—the tenth largest in the world with an annual production of approximately 2 million units—is expected to become one of the major global automotive industries in the coming years. A number of domestic companies produce automobiles in India and the growing presence of multinational investment, too, has led to an increase in overall growth. Following the economic reforms of 1991 the Indian automotive industry has demonstrated sustained growth as a result of increased competitiveness and relaxed restrictions.
Pran Tiku (2008)—on the subject of automobile industry in India—holds:
India’s car market has emerged as one of the fastest growing in the world. The number of cars sold domestically is projected to double by 2010, and domestic production is skyrocketing as foreign makers are setting up their own production plants in India. The government’s 10-year plan aims to create a $145 billion auto industry by 2016.

According to McKinsey, the auto sector’s drive to lower costs will push outsourcing. The auto sector could be worth $375 billion by 2015, up from $65 billion in 2002. McKinsey thinks India could capture $25 billion of this amount. Out of 400 Indian suppliers, 80 percent have the ISO 9000 certificate—the international standard for quality management.
The production of automobiles in India is largely aimed at local consumers. Several Indian manufacturers also export a diverse variety of auto components. Tiku (2008) predicts a sale of 4.2 million four wheeler automobiles in India by 2015. Indian passenger vehicle exports are also expected to rise from 170,000 in 2006 to 500,000 in 2010.
