There is basic difference in Japan manufacturer moving to US and Indian companies moving to US. Japan is an economy with high labour cost. So when they move to US they are either getting labour at same cost or lower. But India can not have this benefit as worldwide the companies opening their centers in India to avail cheaper and skilled labours. Moreover our exports are not from hardcore manufacturing but from softwares that employs more of human brain than of those dominant machines.

But Jayesh human brain we are not using in IT at all. Are you saying IT people coming up with new inventions, new medicines, new theorems etc etc ? No Jayesh IT people simply doing coolie work in C Java so that Murthy will expand Murthy angadi. IT work is for people with 10th standard skills, little bit of arithmetic, logic, you are set for lifelong IT.

Jayesh You have a very valid point, but as of now India has moved up on value chain and we have software projects which can be managed from within US.
