Yeah exactly. Maybe Trump could have a talk with some of them.
I know at least some of amazon’s customer service is in India, but at least they’re hiring bright people that actually can speak English well, have a sense of our culture, and actually help you with your problem.
First time that’s ever happened to me.
India has several advantages over China - lower labor costs, faster population growth, higher skill/academic vibrancy (second highest producer of Ph.D.s, aftter the USA), and widespread English language ability. They are a real democracy - an open society.
They also have religion and religious morality very much still alive. In China, it has been harshly suppressed for generations - bred out of many people. That is a reason that theft is so widespread (routine) there.
Government policy is the biggest obstacle in India - bureaucratic and protectionist. If they can fix that, they have a historic development opportunity, to attract the exodus from China.
Just ask the businesses to draft the rules they need - fastest way. They can review them for attempted cheats, but they will get the whole set of best practices quickly given to them for review. The Government needs to gear up to respond at the speed of business, and involve real successful business people.
