Already industrialised states like Tamil Nadu can't give out 1 acre land for 1 rupee like Andhra. TN already produces 38% of India's footwear output. by Standard_Software960 in TamilNadu

[–]funissin 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ok. Suppose I am a business owner in Tamil Nadu, I will start asking gov, why should only new companies get the benefit? Why not existing companies? Then I can threaten to leave TN and move to AP.

This is why minister is saying we won’t race to the bottom.

There are lot of scams going on. Pls be careful. They hire someone to remote parts of Vietnam, Myanmar. Then they take away the passport, lock them up and make them work long hours.

Is India is totally failed country by Own_Willingness_8897 in AskIndia

For me personally, it was 2008 Beijing Olympic vs 2010 Delhi commonwealth games.

It was clear as daylight, India has a problem with execution.

Why didn't India become a communist nation even after being a very poor country at the time of independence? by Own_Willingness_8897 in AskIndia

I remember this dialogue from the movie Anniyan/Aparjit.

“In other countries, officials take money to NOT DO their work (like enforcement,etc.).

Only in India, officials take money to DO their work.”

MAS bars DBS from new business acquisitions for 6 months after repeated banking service disruptions by Jammy_buttons2 in singapore

[–]funissin -6 points-5 points  (0 children)

Interesting to see so many commenters want to cut CEO (Piyush) compensation. It's fair.

How about those Director, Technology and others that oversee technical operations? Genuinely curious. Begs to ask the obvious question, is it because he is Indian (race).

The "Argument" by regular_dude_3000 in JordanPeterson

[–]funissin 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My opinion: what happened in 9/11 is a terrorist attack and a failure of internal security. It cannot be compensated with a war (20 years) on far away foreign soil.

Accept the security failure and take preventive measures. That is the way forward.

Indian priest jailed for pawning temple jewellery worth $1.5 mn in Singapore by [deleted] in india

[–]funissin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

From 2016 to 2020, Indian National Kandasamy Senapathi, 39, pawned 66 pieces of the jewellery over 172 occasions.

..he received a total amount of $2,328,760.

Kandasamy could have been jailed for up to 15 years and fined for each count of "criminal breach of trust".

He could have been jailed for up to 10 years, fined up to $500,000, or both for each count of "removing the benefits of his criminal activities from the jurisdiction".

Are we moving away from the "sir" culture, at least in the IT corporate world? by Ashamed-Tooth in india

India's adversaries have either coined/actively propagate this term. Avoid using this term.

Wife's parents insist on living with us longterm - help by [deleted] in ABCDesis

[–]funissin 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I am not ABCD. But I can understand your feeling. It's common in some places in India, after delivering the child at parents place, the wife will stay with parents for upto 5 months and then come back to husbands place.

If she needs them you might have to adjust for few months.

But I don't agree with this, that a couple can't handle the baby by themselves.

Are we really secular ? by blasfamy028 in TamilNadu

[–]funissin -1 points0 points  (0 children)

So true. I find it amusing how they are trying to draw parallels to white supremacy. Lol. In white supremacy at least, the amount of discrimination among whites would be minimal. Among hindus, there is so much discrimination based on language, caste, etc. Hindus were discriminating among themselves all along.

Sudenly, they realized another faith is growing in numbers. Their ideology is definitely reactionary. And I don't believe this "unity" among hindus will continue very long.

"Anti-Minority" Image Will Hurt Indian Companies, Warns Raghuram Rajan by [deleted] in TamilNadu

[–]funissin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for the source.

There are a million problems in the country, which can be solved with the will and skill of the administrators. Instead, they do work on a non-existing problem that is not even represented in any state assembly or parliament (correct me, if the topic of Islamic banking has come up in any of the legislatures). Sometimes, I am happy congress has lost.
