I completely agree with you, hope people realize this. Don't underestimate it is not informed decision from Goverment side.

On other side, you cannot GET killed in the cunning race created by Chinese cheating and stealing companies. Foundation of Chinese companies is stealing, adapting & glorifying :)

I think regulations can play very good role to control monopoly. Hope India can catch up next economy transition as Indians already lost the e-commerce train.

Andy, you say that the Chinese digital giants were funded by global venture capital firms and listed later, to capture value. True. But then, consider investors in Jio, such as FB, Amazon, Google et al, to be venture capital firms, and Jio will capture value later. How is it different?

Also, I believe that the Chines Government has funded some of their companies. GOI cannot. Can Jio grow to the valuation you expect without infusion from FB er al?

We can secure India’s digital tomorrow via relevant law enactment and strict enforcement, data sovereignty, anti-trust class action, and public policy 😀👍👍👍👍👍👍
