Developed countries law regulations are very strict financial punishment against defaulters are very heavy. So, they use developing countries for their Holidaying e-wastes. Mean to say that they use to dump these to get relief from their laws.

By adding with our living environment only we get diseases. put in some place and recycle them for further use. Or sell them to recyclers.

I agree with Shipas comments. If satsang for personal life means its more spirtual with gods mens advice then its totaly wrong and it is not needed. We can have a group of people who speak always positive aspects of life, guide and motivate...

"Satsang" means company of good(Sat-spiritually good, Sang-company). Its not always like going to any religious Guru.So its necessary for our lives because what kind of environment you are living in, always matters!  
Shilpa Gote  |  Argues in support of  "No"  |  1 year ago
No we dont require satsang for our personal life. Everyone have their own mentality and this can never be changed. i know few people who have a lot of tension and satsang doesnt help them. if any person dont have a positive attitude towards life...

This is a story from web :     One fine day, a bus driver went to the bus garage, started his bus, and drove off along the route. No problems for the first few stops - a few people got on, a few got off, and things went generally well. At the next stop, however, a big hulk of a guy got on. Six feet eight, built like a wrestler, arms hanging down to the ground. He glared at the driver and said, "Big John doesn't pay!" and sat down at the back. Did I mention that the driver was five feet three, thin, and basically weak? Well, he was. Naturally, he didn't argue with Big John, but he wasn't happy about it. The next day the same thing happened - Big John got on again, made a show of refusing to pay, and sat down.  And the next day, and the next. This grated on the bus driver, who started losing sleep over the way Big John was taking advantage of him. Finally he could stand it no longer. He signed up for body building courses, karate, judo, and all that good stuff. By the end of the...

In many ways, a manager has to be a leader, so therefore a manager will have many of the traits that a leader does. However, I feel the term 'manager' applies primarily to business, it's in a manager's best interest to lead his co-workers effectively, encouraging them to achieve their goals and targets. In my experience, a leader is more of a social thing; more associated with team work, too. Go to Discussion http://lnkd.in/wUJe5E
