    Namma Metro is HERE !!!

    Agree with you. Frankly the route that has been completed is barely used by most people. But a welcome progress. Hope they can connect the rest of the cities and hopefully the airport.

    Are you a Vegetarian?

    I don't indulge in too many veg vs non-veg discussions. But frankly I need to clarify certain points regarding content. Firstly, it does not matter how high the content of Vitamins, protiens or carbohydrate is in a food. What matters is whether it is bio-available. Simply put, can the human...

    Do you have courage to drink "Blood bag beverage"?

    Wouldn't mind just to freak some people around me! But I find this still better than what Rude Foods UK sell.

    Indian Physicist ‘cheated’ of Nobel?

    I know buddy. I'm not sure if my post suggested something else. What I was saying is that the 3 scientists did not get the initial idea from the Indian guy and the future work took into account the theory that these guys came up with using observed events and not the Indian guy's theory. That...

    Islamabad looks to India to aid economy - FT

    Firstly..what in the world is Chuwarey? Secondly...India does face a shortfall in agro goods every year and believe it or not a lot of it is then met by imports from Pakistan. Just 1 case, look at the onions case study earlier this year. Frankly, the imports did make life much easier around...

    Indian Physicist ‘cheated’ of Nobel?

    There are loads of scientists the world over coming up with theories and hypothesis. However, the only ones that can be accepted and recognized are the ones that are observable and the results of which can be replicated repeatedly. Also papers do not come up in a matter of months. Years of...

    Islamabad looks to India to aid economy - FT

    There doesnot seem to be a list per say. But indications are that Indian pharma and car manufacturers would be interested in Pakistan. Pakistan has been exporting a lot of RM in terms of agro and forest goods as well as petrochemicals through agencies in the gulf. I would expect those to be...

    Islamabad looks to India to aid economy - FT

    Here is a little A-B-C of economics for you. There is a difference between declining economy (negative growth rate) and declining growth rate (slower growth rate but at 7.5% still very prominent). GDP has not been downgraded, please look up GDP for definition. Once again, growth rate has been...

    Islamabad looks to India to aid economy - FT

    Makes sense....despite being rivals for decades there has been a constant exchange of business transactions between the two parties via Dubai,Yemen etc etc. The gulf has minted money for just the work of routine paperwork and container routing. Most of the exchange happens due to cultural...

    Part of a tendering process. Sri Lankan firm had the best techno-commecial offer ---------- Post added at 11:26 AM ---------- Previous post was at 11:23 AM ---------- Cheapest would not be the right word for it. Best techno-commercial offer is more apt. Simple process, don't open commercial...

    Indo-China War in the Offing?

    I agree with you on this one. In case something does actually happen I predict it will go along the lines of the 1987 skirmish.

    Indian naval aerial arm will stretch Pakistani air force

    There has not been any open declaration of intent of use. But a brief look at history would shed light on how the IN uses aircraft based fighter aircraft. (Hint: No it is not for fleet defence)

    Pakistan Pharma Industry in fear of closure after Indian Offer.

    Pakistani's here need to realize that "cheap" as described by westerners is different from the South Asian perspective of it. Indian pharmaceutical companies are reported to have 200 or even 300 percent profit margins in some cases. Except from the everyday drugs like aspirin or anti-allergens...

    Indian naval aerial arm will stretch Pakistani air force

    Thats only partly what a Naval aircraft is. A Naval aircraft is modified to endure the stress on the under carriage related to landing on an aircraft carrier and due to the arresting hooks. As you mentioned, this won't be a major task since PN doesnot have an aircraft carrier. What would be...

    ‘Corridor’ threats to sovereignty

    Seems to be a lot of back and forth in the thread. Not all of them strictly logical. @Iajdani: No country in the world can expect to develop without opening up itself to globalization. By globalization,I don't mean throwing your domestic businesses to the sharks, but engaging various forms of...
