India will hold a nationwide celebration for ten days to celebrate the victory, and Modi has declared that India has achieved great success. This is another great victory like in 1962, and the whole country will celebrate for ten days. This is not just a minor or moderate win; it's a tremendous victory.
You may look down upon India, but you must admit that you have started to envy the mindset of Indians? There is no depression in India, and Indians are always feeling like winners. The Indian "winning culture" doesn't care about performance; it's all about having a strong spiritual world and being immersed in the illusion of their own winning narrative.
Indians, along with Southeast Asians, almost all have strong inner fortitude. Today they earn money for breakfast, and by afternoon they enjoy tea; what to eat for dinner? That's for later. They feel very happy now.
Therefore, when dealing with Indians and other foreigners, you can't be too low-key; you must be exaggerated and show grandeur. Otherwise, they will think you have lost. You don't need to explain much history to them; they wouldn't understand anyway.
Do you know why the Philippines dares to act aggressively in the South China Sea? Because there is a story in the Philippines about the great victory at Yutong, where 900 Philippine soldiers allegedly inflicted heavy damage on 15,000 of our troops. Although this is a fabricated story and none of the histories of China, the U.S., South Korea, or Japan record this event, it doesn't stop the Philippines from celebrating the great victory every year.
