Very good posts from you, indeed!
If Indian politicians think and act like you, and educate Indians like you, next century will be no others but Indias century.
But, given your insightful thinking, you are not likely to be accepted by current Indian society, as the society has been brainwashed for the past 5 decades with such toxic venoms as back stabbing, number 1 enemy, 96 hours, etc, even though the reality is more likely India of Nehru back stabbed China.
Unfortunately, vote bank in a democratic society can only be established by Bollywood like sensation. Reality is boring, and, many times, disheartening.
Thank you for all your good wishes. I wish the same to your country.
I know the politicians are special breed and they can be shameless witout any limits however I've seen very positive changes in Indian political / institutional system.
You may not be able to see it from outside but since I am observing it for quite sometime now, I must say changes are positive. The times of old (and mostly corrupted) breed of politicians are now nearly coming towards its end and new leaders like Rahul Gandhi are emerging. Also, the most of the population of India is young, it is now much more focused towards its goal. Ofcourse it is impossible to eliminate past 5 decades of venom as you suggested in one go, it is atleast now diluting.
We have now overcome the hysteria of being pakistan enemy no. 1 and started to dream big. May be the dream of being a superpower is farfetched, atleast it is worth living for rather than dying in war with enemy no.1.
A decade ago if you ask any general citizen of India about what he/she thinks of the country and I bet 99% replies would be negative.
If now you ask the same person, I am sure the negative replies will be far less.
One could think I am making up since I am an Indian and being patriotic so I give you a real life example happened with me.
I am in UK for quite sometime and one day I was in a taxi driven by a british person. We were chating and he asked me where I am from? And when I told I am from India he was surprised that why I am in UK and if I work in India, I can get much better opportunities and better life. It was a pleasant surprise for me as a local british taxi driver was praising India.
Similarly a british professor of mine told me that his son applied for a job in India for a civil engineering post and he wanted to settle down there for better future prospects.
So this shows something is changing positively. Same is true with China too.
Yes, democracy is not a fool proof system however it is always a preferred option over a military rule and communism. However I am very much looking forward for other new system which can eliminate the politicians, till then I am happy with democracy.
Regarding back stabbing issue, as we all know no report is un-biased. So there will be always a twisted truths about the same story. So yes India could have done something wrong or may be its chinese, but as I said in my first post these were "Political / Military decisions" and the people who were involved in 1962 ones are long gone.
So I am not sure that how wise it is for us people (not politicians or military men as they always want to fire the emotions of people) to still burn in the rage in which we were not even remotly included.
Do we really need an Asian version of world wars before we all progress to a developed nations ??
