Here is the first change I propose to SaiSuresh
by Vishnu Sharma on Aug 15, 2007 11:45 PM

'Be the change you want to see in the world.'
SaiSuresh, this is for you to heed.
Relocate to a village for one or two years.
It does not have to be any specific village
Relocate to a village in Tamil Nadu assuming you are a Tamilian.
See if you can either rent and accomodation or own a plot there.
Next, try to get a Bank to open a Branch in that
village.
Next see if you can get internet connectivity to that village.
Hold classes in the local village school for village boys.
Next, try to see if you can improve the sanitation in that village.
On your daily wanderings in that village you will notice men women hunched over paddy fields.
See if you can try to automate rice plantation in a paddy:

See if you bring a minute change in one SINGLE village in India.
You are also allowed to take ownership of the change you bring with the following statement:
"You see in such and such a village they have
internet connectivity or some other amenity because of me".
Let me know how it goes one year from now.
