This is a big problem. My daughter who moves to class 9 next year will have to drop French and choose 2 Indian languages. I would like her to learn Malayalam or Tamil or Kannada. But there are no teachers for these languages in North India. So only option is Hindi and Sanskrit.

🚨Economist Jayant Mundhra: My prediction is that we are going to see the rupee hit 150 against the dollar soon. Narendra Modi cooked India, but bhakts still won’t believe it. All economists are sounding like we are in serious trouble and it’s not just due to war. It’s the result of disastrous 12 years rule of the Modi government.




Many years ago, I gave two presentations on how China builds its industrial and technological ecosystem—one for an Indian audience and one for a Vietnamese audience. Although the content was largely the same and went into many details that were rarely mentioned in other settings, the feedback from the Vietnamese and Indian participants was strikingly different. When I discussed the gaps between Vietnam and China, my Vietnamese friends listened very attentively to my analysis of Vietnam’s weaknesses. They even proactively acknowledged Vietnam’s deficiencies and asked me to analyze more specific issues in greater detail. However, when I compared China and India, many Indian friends became quite argumentative. They tried to compete with or challenge the Chinese perspective on almost every point, to the point where I could barely develop my analysis. As a result, they might have won the debate, but missed a valuable opportunity to have a meaningful exchange. So, I came to know which country would be the real winner for "China+1" many years beforehand.
