I don't get this Riaz Haq guy. When indians do it - its a menial low paying job or "cyber coolies". When pak does it, the reaction changes to - "lo and behold, the IT revolution beckons".

Sure...for the financial year 2011-12 - BD made up foe 1.2384% of our exports...this 20% duty is sure to hurt us. Export Import Data Bank

Its funny, some of the posters from BD. They ridicule India as a potential market, with jibes like - "you can't afford our clothes", "you guys don't pay", etc. Yet, people from within the industry in BD, don't seem to be buying it. Check out the McKinsey Report -...

Haha...unless this junoon guy has a rich daddy's trust waiting back home...one look at his bank balance a year from now will send him back to India.

I really doubt that Modi will come to Delhi in 2014 with a resounding victory, as some would have us believe. Other than Karnataka (which has a strong anti-incumbency sentiment), the BJP is non-existent in the south and eastern parts of the country. Moreover, in the last 24 months, despite...

I guess the need to compensate for insecurities fuels the need to draw such naive religious and cultural linkages across time and geographies. Nevertheless, India has played host to numerous cultures, traditions and religions over hundreds of years. Indian cuisine has evolved over the ages to...

How is that relevant here? India has more muslims. By virtue of sheer numbers, these dishes, even in their original "persian" form would be more indian than pakistani.

Why are our pakistani friends so sour. Surely, there's very little in the Pakistani film industry worth defending. Not that India can afford to boast a lot, but the sheer scale of projects is what differentiates the two film industries. Waar, according to reports, will be the most expensive...

I like playing golf with women!!

Hahah...Weed? Hash? Coke? LSD?? Snake Poison?? What's your secret?? Anyways, whenever you stop tripping, give the following a read - Pakistan’s default on anvil - Khaleej Times Seeds of Unrest in Pakistan’s Economy | Pew Global Attitudes Project Caretakers may approach IMF for funds...

Economic Doom?! Due to one budget?! Let's be fair to the Finance Minister. To reverse the service sector bias of our economy in a single budget would be asking too much. And to carelessly use the word - "reform" - to criticize the budget is also unwarranted. The more immediate concern is of...

Why are sections of the US admin attempting to get cosy with Pak? What can US hope to gain by pandering to pak, and possibly angering India? The war in Afghanistan is winding down, pak economy cannot provide a big enough market, US already has its outposts in the region in the form of Saudis. I...

Hahah...NOW the IM is fu@ked!!

I remember having seen shows like "udti hui bhens" and "dilli mein barf giri" on India TV. They have a great line up of comedians.

By that logic, the media would also need to name and shame all among us who are prone to farting. After-all, it is a well established fact that methane is known to compound the problem of global warming. It is not about the quantum of methane excreted but rather the fart itself.

The srilankan budget is about 290 billion sri lankan rupees. The sale of hardware in this case amounts to about 380 million sri lankan rupees. That is roughly a tenth of a percentage point of the defence budget. Foreign policy of UK, i'm assuming, is dependent on more than one-tenth of a...

Sensationalism at its best. What the fu@k kind of "defence equipment" can you buy for 2 million pounds?! It would barely be enough to arm a local police unit. The headline makes it sound like a multi-billion dollar deal was struck. I guess the Indian media is not alone...

The questions is not in reference to how Indian Muslims feel, nor am I questioning their sense of patriotism. The question I asked has more to do with the political discourse in Muslim dominated countries in our neighborhood like Bangladesh, Maldives and Pakistan.

I agree to an extent, that on certain occasions the majority community has been made to bear an unfair burden. But that is in consonance with the spirit of tolerance that the community has displayed for hundreds of years to allow a unique mix of beliefs and people. These are cherished ideals...

Appreciate your opinion. And I wish, religion and one's sense of national pride were exclusive of each other. But we all know how the situation is. But this has to do with India's domestic issues. But, as mentioned in the first post, i am referring, to perception issues, NOT in India, but in...
