Prefer chicks with more traditional clothing...maybe its just me, but the crass way actresses and other young women are portrayed in the media these days has just put me off the whole "hot and sexy" thing...

Maybe if they pulled off some really tasteful yet sexy and modern clothing on some of these actresses, I could change my mind...but as of now, I really think actresses look waaaaaaay better when they stick to traditional clothing. I mean, come on...every one can look hot when they've got hardly anything on...but how many can look REALLY good with proper clothing??

Case in point...I am a HUUUUGE fan of Aishwarya Rai but her look in Dhoom 2 completely put me off her...she looked REALLY fake and plastic, what with all that fake suntan lotion and all...but in Guru, she REALLY looked very graceful and beautiful...

Follow west?...Where people have no culture, where having both of ur parents with u is considered a blessing, where divorce rate is higher than population growth rate, where a rape occurs every 4 seconds, where almost every household has a gun and people go on shooting sprees when madness grabs them,.....,?

I observe that we still have our culture, we still have family values but we are surely a lot better than afghanistan! While the west is now trying to ape the Indian culture, trying to practise yoga at mass level, experimenting with ayurveda, and exploring the Indian past and culture, here we have some people who r forgetting that or don't even bother to find out whats going on in the west and then saying "we shud follow west"!

Tell me how much west helped India in developing its nuclear program,space programme, propulsion systems etc? The major work was done by India itself! West now recognises the futility of being isolated with India!

And what ideas u wanna follow? Almost half of the brain work there is done by Indians! Remove all the Indians working in west and u will have the situation there almost like afghanistan!

Most Westerners dont even know what is 17*17. They use calculator for that. The things taught to them like calculus is at college level, where we r taught all that when we r just in 11/12th.

They say when u r physically fit then u r mentally fit too. But westerners don't even bath daily, water costs more than coke/pepsi, all they eat is "processed food" and fill their overgrowing tummy with pepsi,coke,burgers,pizzas etc and then they bring the foolish concept of sugar-free/calorie-free. How pathetic!
Even their fruits are artificial and syringed.

Can't they eat anything natural and be fit to avoid all this misery? and here we have some people putting their expert opinions and telling us "to follow west"!

The points are endless!
West is now trying to ape Indian culture and here we have people telling everybody to ape "west". How ironic!

^^I understand, but if u take a closer look u'll realise that we have higher thinking levels then them. What we really lack is financial support to carry on researches,explorations etc! If given that then ofcors we without any doubt will produce unparalled quality doctors and engineers! :)

@gx : Taking ideas and following someone are different things! Think abt it. I hope nobody will desire to follow the western misery as I posted before. Neways, my post must be looking aggressive becoz of lack of smileys. SOrry abt that! :)

Actully, the thing these days is that the componies perfer to hire students or apprentice from reputed colleges of the world, weather it's India or Europe or anywhere. We do not have many reputed colleges in India, compared to western countries. All we have is IIT & IIM, ISB is slowly getting recognition, & Symbiosis despite being a govermant body is not that popular.

2nd, The jobs we get out of india pay us more money. Here, indians themselves has kicked the arse of india, by not recongising the potential of us. All we think is outself & not the country or the community as a whole

if u look at the education system of USA, trust me compared to India, it sux, when it comes to IT sector & Engg.

Compare that to mechanical engg. from germany & india is nothing in front of it, the reason, they teach a lot & in a vast sence compared to what mechanical engg. in india study.

Compare that to management studies, IIM is getting huge recognition all over the world.

But most important, & worse thing in indain education system is Tough competition, i really am against the pact by govermant that for IIT entrance exam u need to have above 60% in 12th, i mean comon.....12th & IIT entrance is compleately different. Indian philosophy is that only the genius prevails, & those who are not that genius get depressed. Insted of looking at other things just as desigining, manufacturing or anything else.

Most students go out of India to study, cos admission there is very easy, just pay the fees, & go study. No entrance exam required except for Tofel etc which are again not as tough as CAT or JEE. Even loosers have a chance there, but here if u r a loser, or someone who did not get enough marks in 12th/10th, u will be treated like a loser without being encouraged that there are many other things to do or look at

they don't come from USA etc, cos they know, despite of being cheap education in India, the competition is tough. U still need to give exam for IIT even if u r from USA or Europe

It's an individual chocie, weather to stay Indian with modernisation or turn to NRI mentality.

Don't forget the gr8 Manno bhabhi Ad, with samosa....that sums it all:D

Nd here the money issued for development goes into the accoutns of the ministers , MLAs , Constructors etc.

WHY?
What do u think they r going abroad for? Better theories? Nah. Next...Better practical experience? Yes. And where does this experience comes from? Equipments,facilities? yes......And where equpments and facilties come from? Financial support? yes! Connect this with my earlier posts!

People goto west for higher education. Do u think they can do it without learning English? Same holds true for India too. As told by @raaabo, in that language debate that 90% of Indians dont even know how to communicate in English well. So do u think the foriegners can survive here without learning th e local language of the area they r living in? Do u think foreign students will hire a guide all the time?
Well what wud u do if u were a foreign student coming to India? Wont u learn the local language?

As for other part, that again gives stress on the need of equipments which in turn needs financial support. Thats why u'll see most private colleges have better equipments than govt colleges as private colleges need reputation and need to survive. Also do u know that today many britons and americans that u r so confidently defending, come to India to get themselves treated medically, physically and mentally?
The answer lies in cheap treatment, wonders of yoga and ayurveda. U wont realise all this unless and until u read newspapers daily, watch news and visit to kerela once!

The reason for India's educational backwardness is manyfold instead of financial support. They are mainly politicisation of education, meagre spending of union budget in public education, over hyping a few elite institutes (IIT, IIMs etc.). We are a country of 1 billion people, at least 10 lakh people pass out class 12 every year. Can IITs, AIIMs occupy all of them? What about those who couldn't qualify for IIT, should they go behind in life just because they live in a country of extreme competition?

Mediator, not meaning offence but actually the western world is happy the way they are. If we were to put Indian culture in West Europe or US it would have destroyed their system, because what they follow works best for them. We humans evolve, pick out the attributes which work best and discard attributes which don't work.

I agree and if people like Arjun Singh keep sprouting up, then I think the situation will remain hopeless! The key is to refine the system and filter out the viruses like Arjun singh.

But in engineering and medical field, practicality is as important as theoretical part. One cannot neglect practicals! Tell me how can a doctor be really called a doctor if he has no knowledge of practical part. He may use a syringe, without testing it first that was used for an AIDS patient, to operate another patient. That wud lead to a disaster!

IITs, IIMs get full fledged support. I know some of the labs in IITs are no better than that of local colleges! But they get sponsorships and support. The students opting for a particular project get sponsors. How do u think IIT students who belong to rural areas are able to work on hi-fi projects and develop cars and other things which requires a lot of money? The get sponsors and support! i.e they r refined practically!

Now compare that to local private and govt colleges that are not popular! Students there develop what is possible within their domain of money and knowledge! Electronic students there still develop there a remote controlled toy car coz that is all they can afford! Some people may be able to develop more, but can they develop car designs and engines? Majority of these local colleges dont get any support, so how can anyone expect students to excel practically?

Also, in majority of these institutions the practical part is outdated. If u keep a reality check, then u'll find most of the engg students saying that college course is accessory. People like to go parallel with latest technology an learn it (digit) and thats what students do most of the time! In engg colleges u'll find frequently the machines not working or not available and students copying the readings from trashed lab copies! How can one improve practically like this?

Yea, So I agree its politicisation which in turn leads to lack of practical training in majority of institutions! We need to change the whole system so that it gives more stress on practical part! :)

Don't know about the rest of you.
But I completely believe in whatever @mediator has stated.
The over liberal attitude that has crept in us has is taking its toll.
Look at what happened at Nithari.
How dare do people think they can get away with so much evil?
Crimes are becoming bolder as society is becoming more liberal.
Call me backward, but I shudder at the thought of thinking of the present state of affairs.
We have double standards. We want women to walk half-naked but we can't keep our cities safe for women.
Look what's happening in Delhi. Even Foreign tourists and dignitaries are not spared.
Did you get that news on the Gateway of India incident on new year.
What sort of a message does that give out the the world at large?
Talk of corruption when our morales themselves are corrupt.
No for the love of God, enough of this God forsaken nudity.
I am sick and tired of seeing bikini clad women in newspapers and magazines. I have to steal the time from my family to read the paper or watch television, lest it passes the notion that I am ogling over some dumb bimbos.
I am telling you, this liberal trend will be our downfall.
Morales and ethics are there for a reason. Turning a blind eye towards them will be our greatest mistake.

We are going in such a state of mind, where everyone wants to get western. In this thing we forget what our indian culture was. Every movie even TV programs are showing nudityu now-a-days. so what ^ free radical said i agree with it.

NIthari was the most EVIL Thing which cant be tolerated and they should be hanged .
