If they are so good, then they should have no problem in a democratic system. But ofcourse this ties back into human rights, and the one thing CCP would loose in a democracy is to play god allowing it to disregard the rights of its people within its borders.

Tronic, again, I don't want to start anther round of pissing contest.
I am not comparing our system with your system and claim that our system is better. You are more than welcome to believe that your system is better.
In my opinion, we had different systems because we had different history. If British did not colonize India, you probably will not have your today's system. Therefore, we need to look at things in a historic perspective.
I agree that economical development can never be a substitute for Human Rights. But I think that they help each other in sometime or historic period.
I repeat one more time, I consider that child malnutrition rate, infancy mortality rate and literate rate are part of the human right.
Do you agree with me on the above statement? Don't you agree that those are part of the human right?
I agree that Indians have more human right than Chinese on political power and voting power.
But Indians have less human right than Chinese on child malnutrition rate, infancy mortality rate and literate rate.
In that regards, China is disregarding the rights of its people for politic voting right.
India is disregarding the rights of its people for child malnutrition rate, infancy mortality rate and literate rate.
We are both developing countries. Both of us have enough problems to worry about ourselves. Pissing contest between India and China is the contest between two disables.
