EZLINK Singapore: [EZLINK] Re: Is it bull shit to talk about your own country --India ????

Thank you for your valuable thoughts...

But please do remember we are talking about "Making India a Super
Power in the world not just to make a developed country among others."

I don't think so our yearly once spending(lavishly) will make India
super power, when we have high percentage of unemployment ,
corruptions , uneducation rate and 60% poors living villages without
any basic needs.

We are here to talk about the high degree of illness which stops
India to become Super Power in the world.

As mentioned by somebody in our group,it is only possible when
a 'Miracle' happens.

I do agree with you that NRIs helped in our economic growth.Do you
think is it enough to become India "Super Power"??????

Yes it is not wrong working in a foreign country to earn money for
India, But think this way...If a foreign country starts a business in
India and do the export, import how much foreign trade will happen!!
Doing so they definitely need very good knowledge base,man power,very
trasperant foreign affairs policies ect...These can be very much
possible if we,professionals work for them in India...

Hey my friend,do you think we come here to reduce our unemployment
problems in India?These factors are all the 'Indirect' impact of our
move out of India.

But now India needs our direct participation interms of discovering
or inventing a miracle that makes "INDIA SUPER POWER".

And one more thing "Are u from Tamilnadu".pls don't get affended.
These is because recently election happened there...Pls don't
miscompose. Im a poor software engineer only know to split a logic
but not India.

Cheers,
