I love them! I think the Indians are generally peaceful, very thoughtful people. You have a rich philosophical and religious system, I've never met a bad Indian, and I don't think I will. \n\nI can imagine you're asking because of America's view against all people with brown skin, however I've never seen the point in blaming Indians. I don't generalize to an entire group of people to begin with, but I think it's silly to think that Indians are really capable of anything so hateful. I mean, come on, did Mahatma Gandhi teach us all nothing? \n\nI hope to visit India one day, I think I'd really enjoy it there.

Yes, unless you consider the Indian subcontinent to be a separate continent.

One of the oldest civilization of the world India, Only an Indian can feel and say what is India and what is being Indian. Where One Rickshaw Puller’s vote have the power, which can change Prime Ministers overnight. Power of one billion people of every religion and colour. Modern medical and education facilities of International standard. Indians are working for NASA to Microsoft in majority. One of the obvious choice for permanent seat in UN, We are going to rule the world in economy very soon

Not at all.  In military and atomic power India is not a puppet like Iraq or Afgan.  Even if the 100 million people walks over, the invation will come to end.  US will not take this kind of invation decision against India or China fearing the population these countries have.

I am NOT an expert by any means, but I believe that the Indian infrastructure is your big issue. Power grids and other related issues have to be improved to truly take advantage of Indian positives. \n\nWith IITs, the Indian work ethic and drive to improve, as well as outsourcing already well under way, I think India has immense potential.

Not being from India I am afraid I'm not quite sure what you mean exactly (I don't know what you regard as 'their rules' for example).\n\nIf you are talking about emigration then we have a saying here in England "the grass is always greener on the other side of the fence" and other countries do have an appeal, especially if they're richer or present more opportunities.\n\nWhile I have no problem with Indians emigrating here (or anywhere) I too wonder why they don't stay - perhaps they feel there aren't the opportunities to 'make a difference' in India, or they may simply see a chance to improve their own standard of living and aren't concerned with the bigger picture of what is happening to their homeland. Or could it be that over the last century or two, with the Brits running things, there's a feeling it is up to others to improve things in India?\n\nFor what it is worth I believe India has grown up since the days of the Raj and, though some of its people may be behaving like selfish children, there is enough talent and knowledge being gained by Indians across the globe to contribute immensely to its growth and maturity. Once they see India as 'the place to be' I think they'll come back.\n\nI would also like to say that I think India should remain Indian and not feel it has to become American or go back to being British. You have a great and glorious history of your own, with immense successes (and a few mistakes - but we all have those!) and an impressive cultural background. and don't forget even the language known as English has its roots in Indo-European 'soil'. \n\nSo yes, I agree wholeheratedly with you if what you are saying is be true to Indian values and ethics while developing 21st century techniques and knowledge and, above all, make your country great again. The world needs a strong India.

I have a say that this a very broad question. India is home to many different cultures and they vary in beliefs within themselves. So there is no black and white answer to this. Anyway, being born in Indian and having lived in Australia for 8 years I will try to answer from personal experience.\nMy first impressions were very positive. I appreciated the organised way of life, openess to new ideas, good governance etc. What always disturbed me was the lack of stability in the familiy aspects, lack of respect for elderly people etc. Again this is not a blanket statement but to someone new to the west it might easily seem so. Another thing which strikes is the 'me' approach of the west as opposed to the 'us' approach still prevalent in India. Anyway, after a few more years and interactions I realised that familiy/social life is lot more stable than what it seems on the surface/propagated by media and I met an overwhelming number of dedicated parents. \nWe could continue this discussion on various aspects and its too  hard to type that much !

India is considered a part of Asia.  It is not a continent by itself.\n\nThe Ural mountains separate Europe and Asia.  With a continuous land mass, you have to designate something as the boundary, and this is the way they did it centuries ago.

I don't know. India is a great place. It looks like it is dirty because it is poor. Being poor is not a crime, is it?\n\nIt is poor because it is over populated, and not enough money to go around to all the people.\n\nI think "Born-on-earth" is a F****** As***** for saying that. Just because of some people, you cannot stereotype the whole East.

Globalisation, in my opinion, started several centuries ago. The way Budhism spread from India to the far east is a case in point. The building of temples and social and economic thinking, to the East from India is a classical case of globalisation.\nHowever, the concept took a new meaning with the discovery of the New World in the 15th/16th Century. The engine to the discovery was to bring spices, gold and other precious commodities to Europe. Some form of Economic Imperialism.\nIn the 1970's, the US and Europe, went on the globalisatin spree, as we know it now. This was particulaly the case with the large multinationals, who saw tremedous opportunities in the low cost economies, and the large markets, which would give them further opprtnities to grow.\nHowever, I believe, we have only seen the tip of the iceberg for economic globalsation, as I see further opportunties with the process.

It is the motherland to Indians ... many other countries use/have used similar wording (Germany > Fatherland?).
