.. contd from earluier message.. So what do we do? Pinpoint responsibility, cut down the excess flab, have stringent labour laws, exclude labour law protection from government jobs and allow a hire and fire thing there. Raise salaries and demand performance. All should be aware that salary is to be earned and is not a right. Fix responsibilities on seniors for their juniors fault.. remember rules can percolate downwards and so is the will to perform. And DO anything to take the nation forward at a faster pace. Fix time for everything to enable progress at faster pace. Do whatever but don't hide behind the curtain of inefficient government workers in a plea not to raise salaries.. Remember, in private sector if the management was soft, they would have had a bitter working sector too. So all that has to be done is at the top.. and all will fall in place.. sincereity, work culture, attendence, performance..
