    Biggest American Companies to Invest in Sri Lanka

    The thread title itself is misleading. There's a difference between willing to invest and investing. I wish the country all the luck. It has seen peaceful times after a long and arduous journey. But a word of advice for Sri Lankan here, please dont exaggerate and mislead.

    Quietly, US military opens up to Sikhs

    They ought to. UK and Canada in the West allow practicing Sikhs to serve. Sikhs have served with distinction during WWI and II in all theaters of war. I dont think a turban and beard would be a problem.

    Too low for controlling stone-throwers. I guess rubber-bullets will be better. But yeah, TASERs will definitely come in handy for city cops to tackle aggressive criminals.

    China Made Trains to Mumbai - India

    The idea looks interesting. Though I assume that India would be connected to this trans-continental line by Pakistan. And given the mistrust, the whole might stop at that. On a related note, Indian railways' consultancy arm RITES is a major name in rail transport projects in developing...

    Kashmir | News & Discussions.

    What is the range of a taser? in J&K protestors or stone-throwers are as they say, a stone throw away from police. Can a Taser strike a person at that distance?

    China Made Trains to Mumbai - India

    It stupid for any Indian to really malign China for playing on costs. They indeed provide the best quality at a given cost. Similar, to what Indian outsourcing companies do for IT services.

    China-Pak nuke deal may not get NSG nod given Pak's past: US

    You evidently do not understand the difference between nuclear accidents and proliferation. India has had nuclear accidents, that's what leakages can be classified as. But apart from our initial attempt at making weapons grade uranium from a reactor for energy purposes, India hasnt supported...

    SCO to be fortified by India

    I dont agree with that. China and to an extent Russia may desire that, but it's not the stated aim of the organization. If India can balance its changing (positively) relationship with US with that of its age-old friend Russia, there's no saying why it cant do the same vis-a-vis the SCO.

    SCO to be fortified by India

    I think an organization like SCO is very relevant at the point. Economically and politically it can form a major power block. Though all countries are at varying degrees of development, they control access to major resources.

    Japanese couple weds Hindu style in Bodh Gaya

    I thought Bodh Gaya was revered by the Japs for its Buddhist origins. Whats the point of getting married in a Hindu ceremony there?

    Is it Taj Mahal or Tejomahalay??

    Its a BS conspiracy theory. If you read his arguments they can all be debunked pretty easily. One cant say Taj Mahal was a temple just basd on architecture. The truth is that many Mughal buildings display characterstics of Indian style as well. And Indian style was usually visible in temples and...

    America keeps falling in and out of favor with Pakistan. Millions of dollar aid for the floods and still Pakistanis see them as greedy.

    Kashmir | News & Discussions.

    Totally agree with the above. We have to acknowledge that Azadi is a demand however unfeasible it may be. GoI should be willing to discuss it at least if that soothes tempers and prepares the ground for engagement with Kashmiris.

    My bad. Thanks for the info. So how many folks work there?

    Huawei to set up $500m plant in India

    I think 'made' in common parlance still means 'manufactured'. As such it will definitely carry a Made in India label. Thats true for Suzuki, GM and Hyundai cars as well. It may be called conceptualized in China. Credit should go wherever deserved. But again, the article mentioned that Huawei...
