Atanu urges us to take lessons from the China ‘manufacturing’ experience
Build cities. That will require a great deal of manufactured stuff. So you need lots of manufacturing. And forget the crumbling mega-slums we currently pretend are cities, and forget the tiny impoverished settlements we call villages. Build livable cities and build factories that will produce the stuff that the poor currently don’t have because it is not produced.

We have to register at his blog to comment, so I’m sorry that I have to comment this here. Not for the first time, I can’t get his logic. Is he implying that cities exist, or are born, because of “lots of manufacturing”?

Bombay addict, what Dey says is not very unique. He says that manufacturing creates more “stuff” but manufacturing requires lots of people living close together. So if you create cities then you can support manufacturing and therefore create more stuff.
BTW, registration on Dey’s blog takes about 10 seconds.
