Introduction China and India are two countries in Asia separated by the Himalayan Mountain. Both countries are growing rapidly in terms of economy. They are becoming both locally and internationally important in the economy of the world and are affecting globalization to the greatest extent. Both countries, China and India, have experienced this growth because of good political leadership, security and investment in industrialization. The citizens of these two countries are engaged in intensive business throughout the world and this is why they are in a good position to control the world economy. China and India relate even in the military sector. The current partnership between Asian countries India and China has a great impact on the world economy. These are the largest emerging economies that will set the pace of the global economy. This essay will discuss the impact of India and China power at the international trade system. The strategy and the impacts that both countries have at the local and international levels will be examined. India India is in the process of gaining great power at the international market. This is because of its diversity in ethics and a strong economic system. The growth of India was for the first time noted when New Delhi signed a nuclear pact with President George W. Bush in July 2005. India is now growing rapidly in the global balance of power. This is a sign that it will be able to control some sectors in the global economy (Foreign Affairs, 2011, p. 1).

The leadership in China considers foreign nations as important and encourages carrying out of business with other countries. China is currently growing at a slightly higher rate of 1% more than India which is growing at a rate of 9% per annum (Taipei Times, 2011, p. 1), this is an outstanding growth rate: “As in the new 21 st century finally dawned, it was China, rather than the pacific that was catching the attention; the future was pointing to China, a global power shift” (Scott, n.d., p. 101). This was after a partnership with USA.

India China Economy There has been an increased trade between India and China in the recent years which was not well established some years back. Today both countries are beneficiaries of this trade: “In 2004, India’s total trade to China crossed US $13.6 billion, with Indian exports to China touching $ 7677.43 million and imports from china at US $ 5926.67 million” (Stanley, n.d., p. 1).
