Where Workers Are Flocking To


Young, educated and tech-savvy workers of South Asian descent are heading to India for work. In fact, about 300,000 Indian professionals working overseas are expected to return there in the next five years, a recent report by employment firm Kelly Services estimates. A growing number are second-generation Americans of Indian descent who land jobs in India's booming tech sector. India has the second-largest diaspora in the world, at 25 million people, and the government's Ministry of Overseas Indian Affairs is aiming to lure skilled workers back home.

People are coming back just as the last vestiges of reforms Ver 1.0 and Ver 1.5 initiated by PVNR and ABV work their way through the system.

12 months from now, we will be back to the bad old days of Nehruvian stalinist stagnation.
By that time, things in the US are likely to be on the upswing or at least stabilise.
And then indians will have to pack their bags and head back stateside again, to make a living.

We indians are so stupid.
