R&D
by Bodh Ramdeo on Oct 08, 2007 07:28 PM   Permalink | Hide replies

R&D is risky business - it costs money and there's no sure profit-making product at the end of it all, so why do your own R&D when you can just lease it from the OEMs for less?

Thats why we have Ambassdor car manufactured by Hindustn Motor. Although HM was one of few asian car manufactures in 40s-50s. Now we know where HM stands. It all because they never spend money on R&D. India is suitable for greedy businessmen and in-efficient government.

thats the sad thing with India, that the people doesnt understand what research can give.. they believe to remian copycats, as they always were.. but they dont understand the other half of the story ..yes u can copy others but u can do that after a gap of 10-50 years, so keep on using obsolet technology which others invented 50 years back and which is age-old..and be happy..
