BEIJING ( Caixin Online ) -- China's gross domestic product surpassed Japan in the second quarter of 2010. The international media gave this milestone considerable attention. The domestic media hasn't paid as much attention.

As natural disasters, environmental degradation and property bubbles take the center of attention, the domestic media isn't likely to focus on this number. Besides, China has 10.5 times as many people as Japan does. The same GDP still puts China's per capita income at less than 1/10th of Japan's, which is hardly a moment to celebrate. Nevertheless, it would be useful to look back on how far China has come, study the risks in China's future, and, if the country can overcome the existing challenges, how much further the country can go in the next 10 years.

In terms of levels, the nominal GDP has increased by 2.9 times, exports by 3.8 times in dollars and 2.9 times in yuan, and electricity consumption by 1.6 times in eight years. Japan had a similar performance in 1960s, Korea and Taiwan in 1980s. But, they were much smaller. What China has done is unprecedented in terms of scale.

These will be among the topics address by Xiaoguang Hou at an export conference to be held September 15 at the nearly sold-out, members-only PMMI annual meeting in Greenville, SC. Packaging Machinery Manufacturers? Institute members can still register to attend after logging in at www.pmmi.org, which will achieve record attendance.

Maruti Suzuki India (MSIL) is looking at manufacturing cars for other vehicle makers, both foreign and domestic, on the lines of its arrangement with Nissan.

Nissan, Japan’s fourth-largest car manufacturer, sells MSIL’s A-Star as Pixo, an entry-level car, in Europe. Last year, MSIL had supplied 50,000 units of A- Star, but this year, it is likely to supply 20,000 units because of subdued demand. According to its agreement with Nissan, MSIL makes nearly 35,000 units of the small car every year for the Japanese carmaker.

Bhargava did not rule out the possibility of Maruti acting as an Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM) for Volkswagen in India. An OEM manufactures products which are purchased by another company and retailed under the purchasing company’s brand name.

Volkswagen is a bigger company and has resources to invest in research and development for developing hydrogen and hybrid cars. Unlike Suzuki, Volkswagen neither has the technology to develop small cars nor low-cost manufacturing facility, according to him. Moreover, it has a weak presence in India.
