My View!

After reading some of the comments, it's disheartening to see that there are so many amongst us who want to board the first flight out! Is India really so bad? One of the readers in his comments went to the extent of suggesting that the idea of migration should be inculcated from a young age itself!!! Is this the right kind of message? Foreign education is not bad because we are not perfect yet and lot of things can be learnt from the developed countries and their system of governance and administration. But to go there with the idea of living there permanently-is that rational? Is escapism the only way out of all the troubles that we face in our country? I am only 23 but when I hear my juniors and counterparts venting their frustration everyday because of little things, it really feels sad! Most of us haven't even seen the real struggle-afterall we got the luxury of INDEPENDENT INDIA as our birthright. Are we that weak that collectively problems can't be solved? I am not corrupt and I want a better country, a better infrastructure and so are the many readers in this discussion-so then what stops us from working together? Think hard friends-we are growing up to a better country-this year is only our 60th year of independence-let's give the right message.In a short time we have seen development. (maybe at a relatively slower pace but no denying that it has started to take place) Foreign education is not bad but the concept of disowning your very own people for materialistic gains is not the bravest of acts and would not define our true culture in the right sense. Imagine what the Americans, Canadians, Australians think of us? Are Indians that greedy that they can leave anything and everything for comfort? Think hard my friends. And sorry, if I am off track-comments are welcome!
