Guys I have come across this article which throws light by saying that the visa law by the US Govt. is purely disciminatory..... Software industry body Nasscom today said the US Border Security Bill, which has been passed by the Senate, has logical flaws and is discriminatory in nature. 'From India's perspective, I think it has been done ahead of November Congressional elections. It is based on flawed logic and is discriminatory in nature. But it did clarify that it is not targeting any particular nation...” 'It (this Bill) shows the fact that Indian IT industry is posing significant competition to the US companies,' Nasscom PresidentSom Mittal said in a media conference call. The Bill seek...

Reliance on only one market is always dangerous.  The market horizons have to be developed.  When we have the ability to serve every market needs, why should we confine to USA.

10 minutes for your country? If yes, then read; otherwise, choice is yours. YOU say that our government is inefficient. YOU say that our laws are too old. YOU say that the municipality does not pick up the garbage. YOU say that the phones don't work, the railways are a joke. The airline is the worst in the world, mails never reach their destination. YOU say that our country has been fed to the dogs and is the absolute pits. YOU say, say and say. What do YOU do about it? Take a person on his way to Singapore . Give him a name - 'YOURS'. Give him a face - 'YOURS'. YOU walk out of the airport and you are at your International best. In Singapore you don't throw cigarette butts on the roads or eat in the stores. YOU are as proud of their Underground links as they are. You pay $5 (approx. Rs. 60) to drive through Orchard Road (equivalent of Mahim Causeway or Pedder Road) between 5 PM and 8 PM. YOU come back to the parking lot to punch your parking ticket if you have over stayed in a...

I refuse to respond to TROLLS. Pl see my earlier post on THE OTHER SIDE OF THE COMPANY THAT ANNA HAZARE KEEPS and as you read some of the ballistic comments you will understand what I mean. As Sachin says "Let my bat do the talking", so here I am with another food for thought on Anna Hazare's campaign.    I have stated that earlier, and I repeat ad nauseam now also, that I have no doubt in my mind that Anna's campaign is the bitter medicine that this scams-ridden nation and the UPA II government badly need. He is doing a good job -- the scavenger's job. The nation should be grateful to him and I salute his spirit and his well-meaning intent. More than anyone else, it is ANNA HAZARE who needs to be given BHARAT RATNA. Anna ji hi hain aaj ke asli Gandhi.   However, journalism has taught me an important thing: never to get bowled over by one side howsoever convincing and appealing that side might be.   So here I am with some more questions. I repeat once again that these probing...
