How does one define technologically advanced?

 How does one define technologically advanced?


1) Is it by the R& D spending and number of successful R&,D outcomes with globally accepted patents  ( Then, USA- but INDIA a big ZERO), 

2) Is it about delivering 'indigenous fully/ completely ( meaning all parts) manufactured or produced usable technological hardware/ software/ tools ( Then we have USA, CHINA, SOUTH KOREA, JAPAN, RUSSIA are there but INDIA not at all visible - let us not feel ashamed, but that is the reality , note down each and every word in  the statement),

 3) Is it about manufacturing big machineries to manufacture those hardware and tools ( Then, we have USA, GERMANY, CHINA, DENMARK, NORWAY-again India nowhere), 

4) Is it about Innovation and invention of most modern technologies ( Then we have Israel, USA, CHINA, JAPAN, SOUTH KOREA, SWEDEN- India insignificant numbers that too mostly improvements or modification of existing technology), 

5) Maximum number of people using or at least know how to use, repair, reproduce, assemble, duplicate etc. ( Then India is number one). 

So, when one says 'technologically advanced' one needs to know what one means by it.
