So unless you're basically saying that the uncivilized states don't intend to follow their own plans, your statement makes no sense.

Also I'd rather not get into debating who's civilized or what civilization means because that's moot, and usually ends with arguments which are little more than 'mine is bigger than yours'.
Thanks for the lesson, I wasn't aware of that

And you are right about the second part as well, note however that I rank India FAR above China in that regard *India is still not IMHO quite up to European standards*
