Kunal Shah's remarks are somewhat similar to what Infosys co-founder Narayana Murthy said a few days ago when he asked youngsters to work harder if they wanted to see India compete with China and become number one or two in terms of GDP.
Only privileged tankies are praising China. Also fuck the Chinese 996 model. Give me “western” work/life balance anytime of the week. That exploitative shit is not sustainable for the economy and the country. Like nobody is having children in China, South Korea and Japan, because they don’t have the time and money to raise them.
Nobody is having children even in western Europe, because of the same reason (lack of time and money). But this is another thing and does not relate to economic sustainability. Having reduced working time with high salaries/benefits makes EU western industries much less competitive than Asian counterparts and those firms are doomed to close.
