இந்தியர் என்பதில் பெருமிதம் கொள்வோம்...

My friends used to say this, 'one cannot grow big, make money/become rich in this india... thats the reason why we like to fly oversees (especially they pointed out US, UK, and Emirates) and make the fortunes.. we don't see this country growing.. because of so many issues/dormancies in economy, politics etc..!'

Even, I too had such a bad impression about this country in my earlier ages. But, looking at what India has turned to be, from the darken days, I am very much proud to live in this age, in this country. India is not just a growing country. It is a fast growing country.Very very fast.

One should see it's growth and history from all the possible angles. Leave the hurdles and threats aside. See, the country has got up like anything now. 'Money flow/Economy' is not the only measure to scale the country's progress. Even if you say it is, then the country has done that too, much better.

One should not simply blame that he is unable to grow big in wealth by being here. See, how other legends have grown from their feet. What kind of attitude, dedication, energy they had put in this country.

All you wanted is a good paying job. This country offers you that too!

I trust this country. I have faith in India & myself. Rather, very lucky, to live here in this age.

These two lines were printed there at all my school text book's back cover. I used to read them loudly in childhood:

"இந்தியர் என்பதில் பெருமிதம் கொள்வோம் -இணைந்தே
இன்னும் பல சாதனைகள் புரிவோம்!".

mani, u know one thing.. you can find Indians in all parts of the world... means Indians have spread [or ran away] to that extent.
but they also succeed there... my question is y not in India itself ??

i don't think any other countrymen are spread like this..

Rightly said mani.

People fled the country when the economy was poor, unemployment, drought etc. As you said we are in the booming period, economy is good so people started thinking differently. They didn't want to leave their family and go away. Its a good sign.

@prabs: yes prab. we ourselves created such a impression about this country. we need to prove it ourselves first. Just speaking/committing whatever we want, and not doing anything- spoiled the whole thing! that kind of attitude should be shot dead first!

@sakthi: yes yes. At least SenSex stands to prove it! :-) Indian market, business, education, culture started dominating the globe!

That's right. When we go abroad, there is no other choice but we are employees, but here we have a chance to become employers!
