Like every natural resource, the Government has plans to use its resources at optimum. In general, we tend to link reward with a cost and hope that our resources are self-feeding. Similarly, with human (as natural resources), the more they contribute to the nation by their labour more valuable they are to the country and more reward they would be earning. So, China has created a strategy for automatic success.
So, how export comes into the picture? Because it is available in quantity or abundance. There is so much demand for cheap labour that it is easy to do it and hard to ignore it. Now coming to China's Olympic haul, about which this article was written. The lot I have written above is build up to this theory. We know China is export country. We know China is thinking its population as resources rather than a burden. If we can combine this ideology, we get subtle wisdom from it.
China as a country wants to empower its human resources and as it does best by exporting because it is available in abundance. So, for China Olympics is not only a sport but an opportunity to empower its people. The Olympics and other sports are just for them an export opportunity available with cheap resources. The Olympics give its citizen a money, prestige, and respect as a reward and efforts as a cost. It is the reason the Chinese are firm to play a sport from a very young age. Because it gives an additional option for the kid to achieve success. It's the rule of probability that China wisely use, and it is benefiting them largely.
Mr. Modi is using the same strategy here with Make In India, but I don't know how much it is would be successful. I am not still observing a Psychological shift in people. We are still not seeing people as the resource but as a burden.
** This article is not about whether Kid's should be in the sport so early, so we will not focus on that.**
