Most Indians I know in real life are hardworking, honest, and very intelligent. Virtual ones are a little different I admit but lets not generalize a entire race based on that experience.
Lets get back on topic. You can place a more detailed analysis comparing Chinese and Indian ABM developments.
Then I must be forced to assume that you are in an academic environment such as school or university alike, where the Indians you know are creme of the crop of India, thus non-representitive. And how many you know that you can remember theior names , half a dozen ? 1 dozen?
Since most of them are first-generation immigrants (and most of them are therefore highly & overly educated to meet immigration criteria) whom you are engaging with in an academic environment as a stud, it seems to be safe to reason that your environment is
not as
competitive, as
diversed, and as "
lethal" , as
that of the real world.
Everything in a confined , limited small acadamic circle is very likely to be painted with rosen colour.
Aren't most German folks you meet not "hardworking, honest, and very intelligent"?
Aren't most Swedish folks you meet not "hardworking, honest, and very intelligent"?
Aren't most Dutch folks you meet not "hardworking, honest, and very intelligent"?
Aren't most Chinese folks you meet not "hardworking, honest, and very intelligent"?
Aren't most Japanese folks you meet not "hardworking, honest, and very intelligent"?
...
See what I mean?
Wait, my friend, until you step into
the real society, in which you will encounter Indians of all social statues, educated and uneducated, 1st & 2nd generation settled downed ( thus more relaxed) immigrants and harden uped recent new comers, ones in univeristies and ones in 7/11s or Car-washes or Motels or a Logistic Co., ones of priviledged backgrounds and ones from inner Mumbai slums or a Delhi Trading company...
This enviroment is what I am talking about ! This is what I see day in and day out here in London ( and in Amsterdam, in Frankfurt ...for that matter) , where one can see what the average Indian is like without rosen-tilted academic glasses, in order to form a relatively more imformed and rather perhaps unbiased opinion on their average stock, don't you think it's fairer?
And I disgree with you after all my life exposure to them in above environment, unfortunately!
It's quite usual at dinner tables , in high street shops or night clubs here in London that I could hear stories of how such such Indians in their new company managed to badmouth a talented easten European to the boss in order to get more bonus or pormotion while doing much much less; and how such such Indians in a team collectively setting a trap to get a newl comer Chinese immigrant
fired at spot by the boss and laughing at this poor high IQ "low EQ" Chinese girl in her face thereafter; how such such Indians backstabed their English team leader by falsely accusing him a racist to make him resign in order to conner the team for their own end... and so on and so forth.
I think you are making the same mistake ( an illusion actually) as what
CardSharp ( a memeber here) and other US & Canada-based Chinese members are making.
A disporpotionally much larger presence of Indian educated elite immigrants in the North America is the root cause of that twisted illusion.
An average Indians in a large society inhabitated by all kinds of Indians - the good, bad and the ugly, in my experiences,
- is
not hardworking but normal;
- is
not really honest but rather conning and sly who is most likely to backstab you without 2nd thought
whenever you're in his way in a competitive enviroemnt ( such as working together in the same team for a profit-oriented org ) ;
- and to be perfectly honest I find average Indian here in the UK rather unintelligent, or regular at best --- an average Chinese or an average European given the same level of education background is
much much more intelligent in my experiences.
You have to ask you self this question:
Why average Indians in PDF (self-selected - hence can be seen as
random in statistical sense) is totally different from what you experienced , but more like what I see in my daily experiences then??
Open your eyes and see the full picture beyond your tiny campus , my friend.
