Prof. Jhunjhunwala and his team at IIT Chennai are also the people who invented WLL (Wireless in Local Loop) cellphone technology.
Their high bandwidth cellphone technology has been sold and deployed in both China and Brazil, but here in India our largest WLL cellphone network uses Qualcomm's CDMA2000 protocol..
India is a country where elections come out fair only because of our always upright election commission and because they are so rigged.
It makes a curious kind of sense -- local politicians in rural areas often pay constituents to vote -- but each constituency (ballot box, rather) is just 1500-odd votes, and hence dwarfed by the size of the country. Also, the worst offenders are usually caught by the election commission, setting examples for the rest.
The other, more dangerous form of rigging elections, is when influential politicians inflate the electoral roll and have people vote multiple times. This happens largely in the metros, because in constituencies with huge electoral rolls and many migrant labourers, fake names are more likely to go unnoticed. The election commission tries to regulate this as much as is possible, but how do you challenge the identity of a man (or woman) who possesses no identification beyond a birth certificate? Especially when you consider migrant labourers who work in big cities, and who often have nothing but names to confirm their identities.
It is to redress this second form of rigging that voter id cards were introduced. As of now they have no other uses beyond identification for voting, and the government has no plans to make them so.
So put it all in perspective, and it makes sense. I am a libertarian by nature, but I understand the bind the election commission is in.
You can knock Clinton and his administration for being anything but xenophobic. The racism that usually lies just under the surface of American administration was notably absent even in (dont take this as flamebait) in the south and midwest.
My cousins/friends in college/school in the south said it was amazing how people opened up as they grew up, mostly because of the Clinton administration and foreign policy.
The opening up of immigration (H1-B) to skilled workers has lead to an influx of educated professionals living and working in America, boosting the 'New Economy'.
I am afraid of prejudice, hate and intolerance returning being one part Bush era 'free-speech' that is not prosecuted or criticised.
To me, this could cause a huge slowdown in tech and computers in America especially after they cancel or fail to renew all the current visas
compared to the zillion dollar price of one of these (not to mention software optimised for these/ new motherboard etc) i might as well chuck the fan....
invest in airconditioner stocks ONLY
