Yeah, we thought before India disappears from the world map, let us
take some advantge of its cheap supplies.
BTW did you see the post:
INDIA A FAILED STATE ?
in this forum? It says:
The three major threats to India are listed in all Indian security
briefings
Bollywood and India Inc. cannot hide the truth about a failed state
False words are not only evil in themselves, but they infect the soul
with evil. (Socrates)
89 insurgencies raging all over =93India=94
Kashmir: 100,000 civilians killed
White Widows: 50, million women ostracized from society and
incarcerated in temples
East Punjab: Brutal suppression of Punjabi insurrection. Thousands
killed
Tamil Nadu and Mizuram are in flames seeking independence
Tamil insurrection in Sri Lanka led by Tamils Terrorists in India
Bihar: Major suppression of Biharis and problems with Bangladesh
West Bengal in Communist hands fueling Naxalites.
Gujrat: Serious Hindu Muslim riots perpetuated by Mr. Moodi. 3000
burned.
200 -300 million Untouchables have little or no rights
150 million Muslims are at the lowest rung of the ladder:
India the only island of penury in Asia keeps the Subcontinent poor
India has had wars with all her neighbors
India has lowest per capita GNP in the Subcontinent
Indian poor are poorer than Sub Saharan Africa
More than a 1000 districts in the hands of the Naxalites
More than 560 states were forced into the union they did not want to
be part of
Tamil Nadu and Mizuram secessionist movement are live and hot
In a sea of affluence spreading from Luxemburg to Sydney south Asia is
the only island of penury=97kept down by India, that is a heavy
millstone for South Asia. Unlike China India has been unable to pull
herself from the bootstraps and provide decent living, food and
shelter to her citizens. Marketing alone cannot gloss over the poverty
stricken population of India. Bollywood may be able to hide the Indian
slums by filming in Kuala Lumpur but Bollywood cannot hide the
dilapidated infrastructure of India cities. By all counts, India is a
failed state.
