Lets hear what these MBA's from America have to say...

Excerpt...
This summer, many MBA students are passing up jobs on Wall Street for the chance to work in Bangalore, India, a city some call the outsourcing capitol of the world.
These future captains had a chance to work in Bangalore, India. They experienced India's explosive growth first hand.
One was working with HP and taking the outsourcing to next level. 'Outsourcing' of medical analysis, engeneering design, high tech. Now it was tough for them to digest that the management was now indigenous. (Way to go India).
They all agree that India is the place were it is happening and happening in the BIG way. They wanted to see it for themselves.
They were surprised to see the fabric of the Indian society. They also found a lack of gratitude.
One of them saw the contrast in Indian life. Individualism is also mentioned in context of change.
They think it is positive that Indians think US is the promise land.
Listen for yourself ... worth your time.

Nice, very nice...

All that I did not like is when Indians say 'America is better'. After staying in Europe for an year and in one of the most developed nation of the world(Denmark).
I still feel that India is the place where I want to be eventually, because that's where my roots are. Our Social fabric, values and traditions are the one's which we are proud of and we will be always.
I have experienced that staying in Alien land makes you more patriotic and you realize the importance of being an Indian in more broader sense.
Seems that Ashutosh Gwarikar movie 'SWADESH' had an tremendous impact on me :-)

Hats off to all Indians.
