NEW DELHI - India has criticised as "discriminatory" Britain's decision to consider travellers from the country who received the Covishield vaccine as unvaccinated, with New Delhi warning of reciprocal measures
......
The Covishield vaccine, developed by British-Swedish company AstraZeneca and manufactured in India by Serum Institute, is identical to the doses given to millions of Britons.
Indian foreign secretary Harsh V Shringla said at a briefing on Tuesday (Sept 21): "The basic issue is that here is a vaccine, Covishield, which is a licensed product of a UK company manufactured in India of which we have supplied 5 million doses to the UK at the request of the UK government."
"We understand this has been used in the national health system, and therefore non-recognition of Covishield is a discriminatory policy."

I wonder why didn’t they complain about Chinese vaccines being discriminated?
Such democracy is indeed tainted.

UK does not recognize Covishield 管他屁事 ? India talk through their ass?
China tighten their immigration when India had 3rd Wave also KBKB.
Australia said PRs cannot return to Australia and they burn Aussie flag.
Even when we tighten Foreigners ( seems to be FWs due to quota), they also say they will sue us for violating CECA.
No wonder PAP is so scared of them. Our NS also cannot defend against them.

There is a reason, or at least conceptually so, to have international body to govt stuff such as WHO, WTO and NATO etc. However, we notice that USA always doesn't play by the international rules even to the extended of stealing shipments of medical supplies during covid situations earlier.
Why have international bodies when you don't respect each other mutually? All countries should just accept the WHO list of vaccine. Likewise for any rules and decisions made by WTO, NATO etc.

Does it also mean we must accept their fake qualifications and fake vaccine passports?
Are they becoming Asia Bad Boys?
