Changing Regimes



1.The US Presidential election process is an interesting and complex democratic practice that for the most part matches expectations for the oldest surviving democracy in the world.
The official process begins almost a year before the actual event of electing the president, with the Iowa Caucuses followed by other state caucuses and primary elections that are part of the process to determine which party candidate will win his or her party's nomination to run for President. However one can argue that the process begins more than a year before the main event, when various people begin announcing their candidancies and engaging in lively discusions and debates.

3.China on Tuesday summoned the Japanese Ambassador here and warned it would take “necessary measures” to protect its interests after Japan announced it had purchased disputed East China Sea islands.
Heightening recent strains, Japan announced on Tuesday that it had purchased three uninhabited islands from a family recognised by Tokyo as the owner. China, which holds competing claims to the Diaoyu or Senkaku islands, hit out at the move, seeing it as a provocative assertion of Japanese claims in the long-running dispute.
Beijing said after the announcement that it had dispatched two China Marine Surveillance (CMS) ships to patrol the waters and enforce its claims. Analysts said the developments raised the possibility of a confrontation with Japanese Coast Guards.
The Chinese Foreign Ministry described the Japanese move as “a gross violation of China’s sovereignty” and “highly offensive to the 1.3 billion Chinese people”. Spokesperson Hong Lei told reporters that Foreign Minister Yang Jiechi had summoned the Japanese Ambassador and expressed a strong protest. The skirmishes between the two largest economies of Asian continent continuing since decades without a clear mandate for those islands.Click here to know more about the Sino-Japanese cotention

Changing Strategic Landscape: Coopetition between Toyota and Suzuki

Image
  Very recently the country's largest car manufacturer, Maruti Suzuki Limited is preparing its own version of the best-selling multi-purpose vehicle (MPV) in the country, Toyota's Innova i.e., Suzuki Invicto . A few years back , Toyota launched the " Toyota Glanza ", which is essentially a rebadged Maruti Suzuki Baleno.  It was a part of the Toyota – Suzuki Collaboration to leverage each other's products to multiply their sales. While the Toyota wants to leverage Maruti's best-selling products to increase its sales in the Indian  market by launching Toyota Glanza, at the same time, Maruti Suzuki is using Toyota's ace MPV "Innova"  to leverage on the popularity of Innova to boost its sales of Suzuki Invicto.
