Poverty and the World's Next Superpowers:
A Closer Look at India and China
Featuring Tim Hanstad, President & CEO, RDI
The Trade Development Alliance of Greater Seattle
Greater Seattle Chamber of Commerce
1301 Fifth Avenue, Suite 2500
Many pundits continue to prophecize the ascendance of the world's next superpowers, China and India. Yet a closer look reveals a more complicated picture. While there is no doubt about the great potential of these two economies, both China and India are still wrestling with rural poverty. Of the 2.3 billion people living in these two countries, nearly 1.5 billion earn less than $2 a day, according to the World Bank. At the heart of this crippling rural poverty is the inability to own or gain secure rights to the land.
