Very nice and pragmatic article.I believe the suggestions offered by the author will be a reality. However, it will be a slow process as usual. That's OK.
I agree with the idea of pumping more effort into better projection and marketing of our country. There is no doubt that we do have poverty and economic disparity to grapple with but better ppositioning of India's image will augur well in terms of attracting more foreign investment and improving our self respect in general. I think that while we must have an inner humility and understanding of the huge amount of upliftment that is still pending in India, it is good to slowly eliminate the image of a rather poor and service- oriented country that we seem to project to the world.
