A picture can say a thousand words and inspire a billion !


Sometimes, you feel humbled by the enormity of words. While surfing the net yesterday night, I came across a print-ad. Moving words, inspiring thoughts.
 'Sometimes an ordinary Indian can make a Rs 120,000 crore company feel humble. For every step we take, there's an inspired Indian leading the way'
The tag-line on a Hindustan Petroleum ad describing Captain Vikram Batra (Param Vir Chakra winner), need to say anything else ?
Captain Vikram Batra, Posthmous winner of India's highest gallantry award, Param Vir Chakra

Outsourcing - the new wave !!

First they outsourced their customer service, then their market research analysis, then teaching and then some more....... Well, if Time is to be believed, the day is not far when we have the US Army outsourcing its 'war on terror' to where else ? - INDIA !! What do these "soldiers" get - US Citizenship. According to "Fast Track" in the August 7, 2006 issue of Time. "When President Bush visited Walter Reed Army Medical Center last week to witness three U.S. soldiers seriously wounded in Iraq become U.S. citizens, he said that "if somebody's willing to risk their lives for our country, they ought to be full participants in our country."

So far, 26,000 of them have achieved that goal. Be it patriotism or the easier p...

There is no defense of IIPM and its high handed techniques. To summarize Patrix (of DesiPundit fame), the core issue here is FREEDOM.

The Dragon vs the Tiger

Image
China may win the sprint, but India will win the marathon. I am often asked, the Dragon Vs Tiger comparisons between China and India. India is always equated with a submissive tiger (or worse, as an elephant !!!). It is true that China heads a great manufacturing empire. Foreign companies pour billions of dollars in China. Everyone from car companies to turbine manufacturers wants a heads-up in China by establishing their own manufacturing concerns there. Foreign investment, both direct and indirect, coupled with availability of plenty of natural resources and cheap labor has propelled the 'Made in China' tag to each and every part of our lives. It is extremely tough to obtain any item anywhere nowadays which does not have the 'Made in China' tag. The main question to be asked it " What if 21st century dollars are being put into a 20th century power?
