How India is affected by Gate?

When I got the news that Gates is in India, I thought it must be some type of business visit and yes I was right. Yesterday(8-dec-05), while reading Economics Times on the net I got the first glimpse of “how Gates and N R Murthy are common” then many news from his breakfast to dinner(thank god, they haven’t entered in the bathroom) . The news which I think is important was announcement of 1.7b$ investment in coming 4 years. This investment will definitely improve India and its economy. This is the one way how Gates affected India.

A day before yesterday, when I was on the way to home from office, I heard from some corner that NDTV was broadcasting an interview of Gates and Murthy. After 10 hrs in office I was in no mood to hear the interview. After taking my dinner I went to Juicewala. While he was making juice for me I have just asked “Apaka dhandha kaisa chal raha hai”(how your is going). He replied in little bit sad mood “Bhaiya aaj thik nahi hai” (today its not good).I inquired “kyun”(why)?. He said “ koi videsh se aaya hai usika interview hai 9:30 pe log wohi dekh rahe hai koi bhi tak nahi aaya”(some one has came from foreign and interview was being broadcasted do people didn’t come to me today). This is another way how Gates affected India.

A journey to Indian Restaurant in JAPAN…

After getting bored with noodles, after trying raw fish (susi) I have decided to have a dinner in Indian restaurant named Arati Restaurant. My one colleague and me searched the map to the restaurant, on the net. We left the office on 7:00PM and started walking along the streets (Believe me I got the toughest time in life to get that restaurant.). As I entered in the restaurant I was on the nineth cloud to hear NAMASTE and song tere liye but my clouds got vapored out when I saw the pricelist for Indian food. (1000Rs for chana masala and 200 for nan.) We have ordered 1 Chana Masala , 1 Paneer Masala, and 3 nan and then started some gupsup . Very soon we became very friendly with restaurant owner (he have been in Japan since 1996) and he started asking us about India. He was memorizing his childhood, his best time in school, and many things. He also inquired the price of CHAY in India. I saw the pain in his eye but didn’t dare to ask why he was in Japan.


Then the most exciting incident occur I saw Dr. Y N Mohapatra(prof. IIT Kanpur,Physics Department)(remember PHY102N). He was in Japan for some conference. I have introduced myself to him and started conversation. He offered me Paneer Tikka and then started giving lectures on values and ethics.(it was very boring)(only thing I remember is what he said to his Japanese friend “our student is everywhere in the world”). Suddenly I heard the voice of owner informing about my food. When we were leaving the restaurant I got very pleasant bye from Mohapatra and concession for 1 nan.
It was one of the best experience in Japan...

Where is the problem?

India is getting ruined due to politics, bureaucracy, corruption, and many reasons. I have heard this line many times from people and read it in some Blog (“Mera Bharat Mahan Series-one of my friend’s blog”) pointing out every problem of India. May be after reading this blog you will say that I had done the same thing.
Am I contributing in this problem? The answer is YES, I am. I have consumed a lot of resource of India and now working for Japanese company. Institute spent extra 33,000Rs per Year as a scholarship on me and I am earning money for someone else.
A person who is helper for me earned 3.5 lacs Rs(in hand) per month and i am getting money less than him. In spite of this I am happy (I dont know why?). Why should I work here? Why don’t I work in any native company? At least they will not discriminate in this manner.
Japanes got the worst thing to eat,worst place to live and still they are one of the developed nation. And another side, we who got one of the best thing to eat and envoirnment to live and still we are 25 yrs back.

Now I am feeling shame on myself. I am confused ……
