RE:..... by TongInChic on Mar 12, 2008 10:58 AM  Permalink The reality of the modern borderless world is that goods will be manufactured where it makes sense, services will be delivered out of locations which make sense and people will settle down where it makes sense. Live with it! Indians living abroad are Indians and a majority love India, but it makes sense for them to live abroad. You can accept this reality and try to be more inclusive and keep the door open for them. Or you can push them away saying that you disown them for leaving the country. You need to reflect on what the individual and the nation loses, and make your choice.    Forward   |   Report abuse

RE:..... by Nanda Kishore on Mar 12, 2008 12:52 PM  Permalink Indian can wins laurels only in America . America is a place where meritocarcy rules .As long a there is dirty politician who vouch for quota and reservation for people to collect votes, India will not improve,There is no place for intelligent ppl in India to prove thier mettle. So i feel it makes a lot of sense to stay in America and persue your self interest. I am an Indian and i am as patriotics as any other Indian. I am writing this with lot of frustrations.    Forward   |   Report abuse
