#1 In'shalla on that one, too.

Think Allen is telling them something, but they're not getting the message?

#7 Historically India had higher overall rates.

With a much larger population, India had to build six hospitals for every one constructed by Pakistan and train six times the manpower just to keep its inferior status.

That Pakistan has now fallen so far behind, especially after the removal of its poorest part (now Bangladesh) shows the spending priorities of the Pak government.

India, Japan to discuss Delhi-Mumbai industrial corridor

India has fine-tuned an ambitious plan for the industrial corridor project and will make a presentation to the Japanese side to increase funding for the project, now expected to cost $90-100 billion.

The project entails the development of infrastructure along the 1,483-km dedicated freight corridor between New Delhi and Mumbai that includes the building of airports, setting up of several agro-processing parks and special economic zones, creating 4,000 MW of power generation facility and two ports in Gujarat and Maharashtra.

The industrial corridor project, which was initiated during Indian Prime Minister Manmohan Singh's Tokyo visit in December 2006, is likely to be finalised during Abe's visit to India in the last week of August.

The first phase of the project is expected to be completed by 2012. The second and the last phase of the project are expected to be completed by 2016.

Japan is keen to invest in India's infrastructure and make it a hub for production and exports to Europe and West Asia.

#9 Nice little bit of info, John Frum. I wouldn't mind buying something Made in India. It'd be nice if we could begin to see more of that in our stores and less Made in China especially since we've gotten so wimpy that we can no longer make anything ourselves.
