印度人惊叹：中国是铁路技术的世界领袖

　　India has to introduce 500km/h trains, otherwise we are making a wrong choice for future generations. If Shanghai can have 421 km/h speed train, Japan can have 581 km/h and operational speed of 505 km/h speed (L0 series Shinaksen), India should not go for slower trains.

　　印度必须引进500公里时速的高铁，否则就是为未来一代做出错误抉择。既然上海磁悬浮可以跑出421公里的时速，日本新干线能跑出581公里的最高时速和505公里的运行时速（L0系列新干线），印度就不应该选择慢速高铁。

　　Trial runs of those rails are 160 km/h, according to the media reports. So average speed of such trains will be 130 km/h, because trains can’t run their maximum speed throughout the route and there are stations in between.

　　据媒体报道，那些铁路的试跑时速为160公里。由于列车无法全程保持最高速度，且中间停靠很多站，所以平均速度为130公里每小时。

　　Ocean besides long-standing border dispute on our Northern border clearly indicates China’s intentions. On other hand, Japan never in its history had adverse relation with India. The development of an infrastructure as railways would better serve us in hands of Japanese from both reliability and security point of views. Until recently, China never before had high-speed railways until recently. It is Japan helped design and construct it. Japan has expertise since its first bullet train started its operation in 1964. Japanese may not be cheap today, but, it would be reliable and in long run it may be economical than Chinese.

　　北方边界长久存在的争议清晰表明中国意图。另一方面，日本历史上与印度从未存在纠葛。把铁路基础设施的发展交给日本人之手更符合我们的利益，不仅是可靠性方面，而且还有安全考量。

　　中国最近才有高铁的，而且是日本帮助设计建造的。

　　日本第一列高铁于1964年开通。日本高铁也许不便宜，但是可靠，长远来看比中国高铁更为经济。
