India

Yes when you walk in a street , you will definitely find litters , old buildings, when you board our trains, you will find it old..not like the ones u find in japan or in korea....our roads are narrow.....why ? why ? because india is not a country which has grown like a mushroom in yesterdays rain.....we are not improving our wealth through oil revenues..... The only thing we have is "brain power" our investment is "knowledge". It will take some time for the common man to realise his mistakes ( like child labour,spitting in public) and rectify .....
Kudos to indians and india for coming so far....

While I agree but I must say if only Indian "brains" would stop slaving in foreign land and help India, we could achieve a lot. but on the other side, it is not so much of a fault of those who leave India, they leave because first and foremost, India needs to stop the age barrier for employment and think of a wage restructure. if a woman is in her 30s it is so hard to get a job as a secretary or similar line, she might be very efficient who can run the office duty real well but can not because no one will give her a job at that age. I am a very proud Indian and working abroad, it breaks my heart that we are still trying to please a country like US etc. who can not be trusted. I wish India can change some of it's old views. India has succeeded in copying malls, clothing style etc. but can we change some of our views that are much required. With all the pros and cons, my heart is for India. just remember the countries we are talking about has worst side that they do not project, they are not as honest in agreeing with the truth like we do.
