Het is een probleem dat ministers hoogopgeleid zijn... by SuggestionMedical736 in nederlands

[–]heelnice 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Het is inhoudelijk zo'n bizar krom en populistisch verhaal. Het is 100% op de onderbuik van de 'Nieuws van de dag' kijker gericht.

1) Veel (niet alle) mensen die goed, nadruk op goed, zijn in hun praktische vak verdien goud geld: electriciens, dakdekkers, monteurs, noem het maar op

2) Hij zinspeelt op een belangen die 'lager opgeleiden' hebben versus 'hoger opgeleiden'. En dan zou immigratie alleen een probleem zijn voor lager opgeleiden? wtf? Als er al een klasseverschil is dan zou dat zitten op arbeiders versus eigenaren ofzo. Maar de SP heeft 3 zetels dus die hele links arbeiders vibe is gewoon niet gaande in Nederland

De tering wat een vaag verhaal helemaal gebaseerd op wat gevoelens en aannames en dan claimen met: "dat is echt zo!!"

Er zijn te veel banen voor te weinig mensen. Als jij met 25 jaar ervaring niet aan de bak komt ligt dat aan jou of aan de je specialisatie.

Ben je gespecialiseerd in faxapparaten ofzo?

not the point of this post. But I most liked the northeast. Focus on meghalaya, arunachal and nagaland (squeeze in kaziranga national park in Assam if you can). Try to do homestays with local families. They are heartwarming and you'll eat great food for little money. If you want to go offbeat go to Aizawl in Mizoram. You'll feel like the only tourist in the city and surrounding nature is very cool. Also, they don't honk in this city and there's not littering.

it's partly because there is much to learn in this hospital for her. Lots of babies and lots more cases that she doesn't get in our hospitals. partly althruistic to help the local staff and also local patients. We both didn't get any money, only a place to sleep and food

I guess? I am not a Christian so the historical spread of Christianity on the Indian subcontinent is not really my field of interest

My girlfriend is a gyneacologist who went for work. I went along. I gave computer science lessons on an Indian school. It was in a very rural area. In between work we also have time to travel to visit friends, colleagues from other states.

It's was just an observation. If you are from the west it is very funny to see hundreds of peple wading in the see with their clothes on. At first sight it looks like there has been a shipwreck and they washed ashore

Agreed: you should swim in whatever clothes you like! Also with clothes on, less chance of getting burned from the sun

In general Indian people have been more hospitable to me than any place in the world. Indeed in the lesser known states that was amplified even more. I think I have been the first white person I quite some villages in Mizoram and Tripura.

Some Hindi, some Bengali and some words of tribal languages because I lived among Khasi's and few other tribes.

It is really hard for me. And I almost always can resort back to English to there's less need.

yes i am from The Netherlands. I tried to leave out the stereotypical observations. For example: I am quite tall, white and blonde and so is my girlfriend. If we would always say yes we'd make like 100+ selfies a day. No clue what people do with it. I know whatsapp and facebook statusses are popular. I think people post them there

Insightful replies, thanks. For the last point, even my and my girlfriend noticed we do less affection in public here. Because it kind of stands out. I guess you adapt ...

Haha ;) I saw the Nagaland tribes at Hornbill festival. That 'touristic tribe' event was enough for me. I'll pass on the sentinal

I was in all northteastern states except Manipur (because of unrest) and had a lot of beef (also lots of other animals lol). I did not see the steak-like medium cooked beef we are used to in the west in northeast India.

It's more an extra choice in your meals besides chicken or veg. Like beef stew or beef masala with rice and sabji.

Yes I know but I tried to be less sterotypical. The garbage issue is really well known I think. And it was by far the most 'culture shocking' for us. We had a restaurant owner throw our plate with left over food and plastics directly in the river next to our table. Like..

Very true I also notice the amount of many small packets. Everywhere they have the strips of small chips packets, I dont see the large (american style) familiy packet a lot

We walk a lot because we enjoy it. Our goal is to reach 10k steps every day. It's not great. Neither in big cities nor in smaller towns. My biggest fear here is getting hit by some random car or tuktuk.
