When I was going home to India last year, I called up my mother to ask if she wanted anything from China.
When India had not  36  its markets to the world, I carried suitcase loads of dark glasses and jeans.   37  , we can get all these anywhere in India now.
Still, her answer  38  me: “Green tea.” As long as I can remember she didn’t even drink  39   tea. I dutifully bought a big packet of Longjing and  40  home to hear the story. My mother and her brother, both  41  newspaper readers, believed that Chinese green tea was the wonder  42 for all illnesses.
  43  the turn of the century, China was not really familiar to the  44 Indian. It was a strange country. Now every town of  45  size seems to have a “China Market”. And everyone is talking about China. How things  46  ! And how soon! The government of India has planned to send a team to  47 to see how things are done. A minister once said that India must open the doors for more foreign investment and such a step  48  “work wonders as it did for China”.
But it’s a  49  street. I just heard about a thousand Shenzhen office workers who have gone to Rangalore to  50  in software. Meanwhile, all the IT majors are setting up a strong presence in China.   51 that trade , which was only in the millions just ten years ago,   52  hit about US$20 billion for last year and US$25 billion by 2009, a goal   53  by both governments. No wonder, my colleague wrote some weeks ago about this  54 the Sino-Indian(中印)century as the two countries started on January 1 the Sino-Indian Friendship Year.
But what is still a  55  to me is my mother drinking Chinese tea.
