Indian -?????

This was a Recent conversation between two guys in a Gym ........

Guy 1: Are you planning to settle down in India ?
Guy 2: If possible will Immigrate .
Guy 1: Where would you like to go?
Guy 2: Somewhere Indian population is less!
Guy 1: ( Bemused ) Why so?
Guy 2: Indians abroad are having a spoilt image , we are branded that we are after girls , flaunting our wealth so we are under scathing attack , getting discriminated ( * quotes few other example*) and our Image in general has taken a beating , i would like to set a good example .
Guy 1: But that Happens inside India itself ? we are not united ! we fight for petty things , Kannadigas dont like Tamil , Kerala refuses to give water so is Karnataka , Mumabi wala 's hate Biharis , Karnataka and Maharashtra fight , North east is always neglected ..... *(Pauses)* why do we have so many issues and fight over petty things ?? we have this introverted mindset and we have become selfish !
Guy 2: That's because everybody sees himself from a partiuclar region and not as Indian . There is no onesness or a common cause which can unite all .
Guy 1 : This oneness can be a Language and specifically English !
Guy 2: *( Laughs)* Nah , it cant be
Guy 1: Iam from North and you are from south and the only we communicate is English
Guy 2: But how many can speak English ??
Guy 1: we can train everyone , atleast the educated mass.
Guy 2: what is the percentage of Educated Mass??
Guy 1 : Around 50 %
Guy 2: Then the rest of the 50%
Guy 1: *(Thinks).....
Guy 2 If we cant be united by one of our own language , definitely not by a foreign Language ...
Guy 1 why cant everyone speak Hindi .. especially people from Tamil nadu ..!!!!
Guy 2: why should they speak Hindi....???
Guy 1 : Its our Official Language !
Guy 2: Tamil is one of the oldest language and a classical language too...
Guy 2: During Ancient times , Indians were united , they were so culturally rich , economically powerful and people were united across the length and breadth ..why????
Guy 1: .. hmmmmmmm...
Guy 2: Simple we had one notion of India , we had one Religion or atleast major and hardly two languages and there one was one Emperor who controlled everything...
Guy 1 : true ..
Guy2 : As time went by , people started to speak different languages , aread were divided along the languages , then came alien and foreign religions , people started to split along different religion ...
Guy 2: so it became increasingly difficult to unify people ...
Guy 1 : so you mean to say religion and language is the cause for all the problem s...
Guy 2.. hmmm..no .. but the politicians who use it for their vote banks and how the fickle minded people fall for it .,...
Guy 1.. That's right ...
Guy 2.. First educate the masses , Go back to developing Agriculture that's our prime strength , feed people , regulate water bodies , ensure adequate electricity and reasonable cost of living , this would help to a certain extent ..
Guy 1 /..but will those be alone enough,,,
Guy 2..well..that's a beginning ... lets hope people become matured soon enough ...
guy 1 .. lets our cricket stars play all through the year ..
Guy 2: .lol ..that's one solution..

Price Rise

First the Price of Petrol , then now LPG and slowly the price of Diesel will be raised , infact almost all of essential commodities like Electricity , Food , Public Transport have been raised .Rupee value is depreciating everyday , consumer good prices have also been hiked . but only thing which has not got raised is our salaries:(




Petrol , Diesel and Lpg Prices are hiked saying that the Government can no more afford to subsidies the prices as the Government and the other agencies are taking a hit on their profits and they are not even breaking even . The Government is planning to limit the LPG cylinders provided to the House Holds to a 6 or 7 a year and moreover they are deliberating a scenario were the affordable' s are to pay more or the cost equal to market price which is around Rs.700/- per cylinder . Now it will be interesting to see how the Government is going to arrive who are have's and have not's , i hope it wont be shocking as the Rs.32 demarcation for poverty line ! The Diesel Prices have also increased but then its not got deregulated otherwise the Oil cos would wreck havoc and prices will go spiraling further !!!!


Then comes another scathing attack on the masses , the Government has increases the Public transportation cost , Poor people and the Middle class people are worst affected , People have stated to walk , to save money on their travel !. Well after the long walk " aam admi" comes home to rest but what happens there is no power (Electricity ) supply , its the daily routine cut , The Government ensures that this "power cut" is met even if not other basic necessacities are met and some how hopes to keep its " Power " in tact and the irony is that The Government is proposing to hike the Power Tariffs !!!! now this is like " Paying Fees for a class which we are not supposed to attend"

The above mentioned price rises have a cascading effect on every other person and product . The Transportation cost and Power Tariff increases , basic food stuff and basic commodities (essential commodities) prices increases , basic food stuff prices increases cost of living increases , because of this many house holds are going without proper meals and its becoming increasingly difficult for them to make ends meet!

The Rupee value keeps depreciating day by day because of this our loans are becoming costlier and our investments are loosing their sheen , Gold and silver prices have risen to pluto and external galaxies .... savings are disappearing just to keep pace with the price rise !!!! Hope we dont disappear with the rising prices !!!!

well is there anyway to stop these things yes , there are ways ,Good Governance and most of all Bring back the Black money and please ensure people who have swindled tax payers money are made to pay and ensure no more scams . If the Money which is stashed in various foreign banks by our hot shot corporate honchos and big shot , good for nothing politicians is brought back to India and pumped in to the economy millions of people could be fed for free without a problem and all the essential commodities prices would come down. Scams !!! stop them and the money the scammers have swindled cannot be counted by two super computers !!! please ensure that money is accounted for and ensure it is pumped in to the economy and NO INDIAN will be affected by poverty and price rise ever again !

This is by a Regularly Tax Paying Normal Citizen!

Revival of Test Match Cricket

When the Head Honchos were deliberating the Future of Test cricket , i always thought that it would survive and infact it will evolve as a whole new challenge. Ad mist all these T20's and 50 over matches it is clear that the Test matches are indeed testing a Players skill , temperament , attitude and character to the core .

Test Matches were said to be dead because of the crowd response were very poor but look at the recently concluded test series Aus Vs RSA, Ind V Windies or for that matter NZ VS AUS, the crowd response was good and infact the quality of cricket was ever improving. Gone are the days were matches were heading to a dull draw , due to the advent , especially of T20 , the pace at which the test match is played has dramatically changed. Big Fourth Innings are scores are chased down easily and bowlers have learnt and mastered various skills , they are able to handle teh nerves better in tight situations and infact they are able to bowl out opponents with much more craft and guile . The recent Test matches especially 2nd test between Aus Vs RSA , Aus Vs Nz and 3rd Test of Ind Vs Windies were very close and they wre heart warming stuff and the crowd as well as players would have enjoyed them regardless of the result .
This proves no matter in which condition a team plays , if the attitude of the team is right they can go for the win .


If we start using uncovered pitches , i guess it will argue for the Game well and the matches would be more interesting as the ball and the bat would have a equal say and the crowds will starts automatically come in as the batsmen would hone their skills as they have to bat in uncovered pitches and the bowlers have to be intelligent enough to use the conditions well .. if there is constant and fair battle between the ball and bat the crowds will automatically come and the Test Match would be the superlative form of the Game .

Dark Ages - Coming soon to India !

There is a problem which is plaguing us for quite sometime now and surprisingly nobody is even bothered about it or is it they think that the problem would solve itself ??? Nah , unless we ensure some steps are taken iam sure we would return to the dark ages .. by that i mean no Tv , no Laptops/ Mobiles , no Pc 's/ Ipads etc even radio NO more industrial Units or factories and we are going to return solely to agriculture and all the built house would be razed for cultivation!!!!!..Hmmm... am i kidding??? no absolutely not, does that mean no electronic gadgets would be available in India or the big industrial companies are shutting shop or the small cos are bankrupt ! NO , NO No Not at all , Its simple we are running out of electricity ...YES! Electricity !!!!





Our Nation solely depends on Thermal Energy , Unfortunately we are running short of coal ( The Electricity which is produces using coal is called Thermal Power) !! Our Country is not able to produce the desired output , the reason shortage of many many things and the slack in the Policy making and yes Of course Red Tapism! and the Private companies like Reliance , Adanis etc etc came in to picture depending on the coal from Indonesia ( Indonesia once exported coal at a cheap rate ) but the Indonesian Government have issued stern warning to the Coal Cos to revise the prices up to International Standards, because of this the Private Cos are struggling with the Spiraling cost and are falling well short of expected production .




Turning to the Hydel Production .. we mustn't have a problem since we have a lot of rivers and that's one of the cheapest means of producing power ..but we are not able to implement the same why ...simple Red Tapism , Protests from various environmental groups saying building of dams will displace many lives and construction of hydel projects would create harm to flora and fauna .



Nuclear Energy .. Ha! The Future!!! But is it safe??? its a 50:50 gamble they say .Some safe its very unsafe will harm millions of life if something goes wrong , some say its the way to the future , many say if Japan could struggles , we would not definitely cope up with any calamity if it happens , already our Nation is the poorest in Public safety ( The recent AMRI Incident at Kolkatta is a prime example). Few say , If Germany can do without Nuclear Power so can we!!! but are WE and Germany Same????? Ask this question a million times ! and for the million time the answer would be a BIG NO!

So what is the solution ?? Hike the rates so that every one suffers! and Cut the Power for 6-8 hrs a day ! Make people to Force immigrate to other countries!!!

I have bought enough candles to last till my family survives-- Have you?????

Curse!

The Ancient world ! The Mighty Greeks! The Brave Romans! The Fertile Crescent , Culturally and Intellectually Rich India , Arabia Fellix , The silky China ! . All these countries were a treasure trove of Knowledge , Wealth , Culture . They were all known for their Great Warriors as well as their sea Faring Traders ! Silk went all the way to Greece from Asia , Spices , Ivories and Precious Stones all the way from India to the European Elite .



Spices , especially from Cinnamon from Arabia Felix ( Modern day Yemen ) went to the European markets , The Greeks and Romans were mighty and known for their war fare and for producing great scholars .Persia , Vast and rich because of the trade and renowned for their Art and Architecture.

The present world.. Once Mighty Greeks are submerged in Debt the while country is crumbling , Indians are at loggerheads among themselves , caste-ism , communal ism , corruption etc etc are plaguing their society , rich Yemen (Arab Felix) is no more happy , The ruler has plundered the county to such an extent , people have become poor and its become a haven for terrorist . Modern Rome ( Italy ) has its share of economic problems , The Lesser said about fertile crescent ( Middle east and north Africa) is better . All of the Countries which were once rich and powerful have crumbled and are plagued by some problem or the other.

Its amazing that none of the Ancient world Superpowers are nor superpowers anymore and why is that they are ravaged by debts , unemployment , corruption and so many other social and political problems???

Is it because of the People ? Is it because of the wars? Is it because of their Trade? Or is it because of some other reason???
The Ancient world was prospering and evolving , wars were fought , People died but then there was Honesty , Bravery and most importantly Respect for each other and comradeship .But the Modern world is widely slit mainly by two things or rather three things and it hurts deep as everyone could see it..they are 1) Oil , 2) Religion , 3) Greed .

All the above mentioned things has made man to loose his man and he become eccentric and the desire to be in power has made him exploit his own people , supress who oppose him and oppress who are against him ! People have respect for each other , they are ready to backstab each other and Religion is creating such a deep divide which is un-repairable . The Modeen Day villain Oil .. !!! Oil , Oil , Oil countries are at war for Oil and oil in turn takes religion as shield and also vice versa and ensures world is always tore part !!! Money is the magic word , it ensures greed stays in man , ensures poor is becoming poor and rich swindling all the wealth and Man is ready to kill another fellow being to make money ! Man is after all a monkey who is evolved and so he is going after another evolution called Money which doesnt differ from Monkey by much!

I expect a Miracle to Cure this Curse!Will the World Be Saved ? Happen?

Busy ! Too Busy !

Hmm.. well i have always wondered about people who are very busy for anything ??? what do they do ?? To be frank ..People have a day job and then come home then gym and then read or play a nice game or view a nice movie , weekends meet up with friends and have fun , but then there are few or rather many who have work 24/7 .. ??? They would be online always but they would be not be replying when you ping them !!!! but whenever you log on they are there????. Its just to show they are busy and they will be online and wont be replying , in real they would be sitting ideal hoping somebody would ping them so that they can show off !!!!The same happens with FB friend's request . They would act as though they have million friends in real , hardly people would have send friends request !

They would later ( Surprisingly ) would message and tell us that they were busy with something else and we would also say its all ok and no issues???!! When you call them its the same they hardly pick up and when they do , they would always reply they are busy and they cant talk !!! what do they do ?? do they eat 24/7????
When you try to meet them at their residence(if in case they are known for longer period of time ) they are always out or helping others!!!!!, later we will get to know they would have had a stomach upset !!!!:P or they are just showing of as though they are busy !

These kind of people are at work too!!! they used to stare at the system 24/7 and keep clicking the mouse with no mercy ,as though they are the only person working in the office or they constantly are on the phone which is supposed to be an important conference call or they would have some kind of discussion in the conference room!!!! They would take 3 or 4 markers and duster and lots an lots of paper as thought they are coming up with a new technology or some new innovation!!!!

Later , it would turn out the system staring is nothing but playing solitaire or chat with somebody , the conference call could be with a dumb friend and the meeting in the conference room would be for relaxing in the A/C after a hard days play and talk!!!
Even the CEO of the company wouldn't be so busy !!!! he would be having the coffee break on time and enjoying his spare time , while these guys would work as though there is no tomorrow and the surprising thing is that , whenever you call them for a break like lunch or coffee , they would start acting as very serious and the world marked crashed and they are working to save it !!!!

Next time if you see somebody really busy now you know what they do !!!

Pleeeeasee... guys get a life !!! Live Real !

English!

Okay ! Now iam bad at English ! True! I went to a communication workshop and found out that what we learnt at school is completely wrong :(, man , my school ripped me off my money .. they naver taught me to pronounce H as "aich" , p as "phii" :(. But then i realised English is really a funny language , it didnt matter how we pronounced it people were able to understand and infact the way English is written or spoken is completely different from what it was before .. it has evolved so much or should i say it has degraded so much ..hmmm..iam not sure !

English has survived and especially in India without English it would be hard to communicate among us,by default is has become lingua franca of India,though we say Hindi is our official language .More People speak English than Hindi in India,and this has played to our advantage it has given a global spectrum to play with.

I bet English is the only language in the world which is spoken in so many different accents and with so many different dictions even the Brits wouldn't have though that their language would reach far and wide,with so many accents and modifications!.In India alone,we must be speaking 50 different "ways" and accents of English!!

We should not leave our roots ! That is our mother tongue but then English has become our lifeline these days , so p we must learn both our mother tongue as well as English to be competitive .

Even if we get Mocked for our English , remind the English we are ruling the entire world with our English .

Battle against Corruption !

" Cometh the Hour , Cometh the Man"

The battle against corruption or like some people term this as second war of Independence !!! . Atlast it is good to see We, Indians unite for a cause which is good and will do good for us .People of all religion , caste , creed and community are together in this fight against corruption or atleast we term so . Mr.Anna Hazare , A Gandhian who has served the Country in every proud way ( Jai Jawan) now is leading the opposition against corruption , the massive support for his fast and the respectable people who are with him is really commendable. The Fast against corruption if not uprooting the corruption , has atleast made our Government sit up and take notice that " We are indeed tired of corruption , opportunism and exploitation .

But The fast alone or the LOKPAL bill for which the Respectable TEAM ANNA is fighting for will not solve the problem . The Problem starts with the common man yes You and Me . It is who we encouraged corruption , to make people heed to us and to make sure our job gets completed we started bribing and this way more and more people started to bribe and the official who received bribes now completed jobs who paid more and this made people to pay more bribes!!!!. Its simple we want to break every simple law in the books and to justify that we have it our way we paid bribes .

In every other country corruption exits but then its only for doing something out of their way , here the difference is that its a habit to take bribes even to do their daily routine !!!! We as a citizen must ensure that we dont encourage bribes and yes next time when we vote we must be thoughtful in casting the same ,there are so many youngsters who are willing to serve the country in blood and sweat !

Though Anna Hazare is doing a great Job , care must be taken not to compare him with Mahatma . They are 2 different personalities and nobody can be compared to Mahatma .No denying the fact we need people like Anna Hazare who is selfless and is giving people's cause the priority . Political Partys and Politicians must realise that people's pent up feeling will one day swell and fire back at them and they will have to answer people's wrath for sure .

This fight must not finish only by ending corruption but also black money , the amount of money stached in various swiss bank accounts is brought back to India , we will be wiping out our debts in no time, the standard of living will increase three folds of what we are now and all essential commodities like Milk , Kerosene , Petrol and Diesel will come down and will help greatly in making or economy powerful and stable one .

There will be a day in India when there will no people living in Poverty or without a roof on their heads .That day is soon to arrive, if we people make a stand against corruption , greed and non-morality .

So, what have you decided?

Blessed!

Iam blessed that her divine fingers caress me and play with me all day long ,
Iam blessed that her heavenly eyes are fixed at me all day long
Iam blessed that iam besides her all day long .

Iam blessed that iam near here when she is sad ,all day long
Iam blessed that she even shares her intimate feelings with me all day long ,
Iam blessed that she shares her happiness and sorrows with me all day long ,
Iam blessed that iam near when she smiles serenely


Alas , all i can is just feel her , as i stand on her desk lifeless ,
hoping that one day by her divinely touch i would spring to life ,
Hold her hands and say i will be there besides you all day long .......

The Hindu or Indianised Kingdoms ....Past to the Present

From Time Immemorial , India or Bharath has been a source of Inspiration to Many Great Nations and Great Kingdoms ... There was a Time when Indianised Kingdoms extended from Maldives to the Indonesia encompassing Maldives, India ,Modern Day Pakistan , Afghanistan , Nepal , Bhutan ,parts of China , some parts of Azerbaijan Bangladesh , Myanmar , Thailand, Laos , Cambodia , Vietnam ,Philippines It was whole of South Asia or South East Asia was influenced by India by sharing its culture , customs and traditions and to the fact we were ancient sea farers trading with the Mighty Greeks and Invincible Romans . It has been found out almost in 2 B.C we were trading with the powerful Romans via Red sea and the commodities were black pepper and incense sticks , At the ancient port which is located at Tunisia ( which belonged to Romans at that time ) they have found a letters in Tamil Brahmani script and yes , they have found a map which describes the route to India and which wind will help to reach India and which wind to avoid . The wealth of the romans were adjudged by the quantity of spices and incense they possessed and be live it or not 1000's of ships played to and forth India . Hinduism spread to the whole of southeast ASIA .. some great empires were born out of the inspiration Namely the great Sriwijaya Empire( Indonesia and Malaysia) , Khmer Empire ( Encompassing Thailand , Laos , Vietnam and Cambodia ) ,Ayuthhya (Named after Ayodhya in India ) Thailand , Majapahit Empire(Indonesia) and our own Maurya's , Cholas ( who ruled till Indonesia ). The great Temples of Khmer has withstood the test of times to tell us what India gave the world , The names in Indonesia and Thailand still resonate the Great Hindu Kingdoms which put them on the world map namely the airport of Thailand is still called Swarnabhoomi and still the Name SRIWIJAYA commands respect with the people of Indonesia and Malaysia .Srilanka was ruled by us .The Jaffna Tamil library the largest in the world was destroyed , we lost so many scripts and Indians especially south Indians are still treated bad in Srilanka and few other south east Asian nations . BodhiDharman: Does Anybody Know that a Great Pallava Tamil Prince Called Bodhi Dharman taught Kung fu to Chinese and he had such rich knowledge in Medicine he wrote a whole book about diseases which will come to exist and which existed and also the cure for them , He was aware of each and every plants medicinal ability Apart from that He was a master in Kalari and especially in mesmerising " Noku varmam" , he can cover peoples mind and bend them for his wish and will. He was responsible for the Shoa lin Temple to be established in China . Chinese preserved his works but we have lost in India . Iam sure that Most of us wont we know that we Gave Chinese that Martial Art . The Irony is " Bodhi Dharman " was killed or rather poisoned by those same people who he taught everything .!!!. His Knowledge still exists in China but we have lost it here!! Osho Says that He BodhiDharma was the second Budhha , such revered he is in china , Japan and Thailand where for him you can see many Temples! We played an important role in the ancient Silk route ! we were one of the richest Nations form time immemorial , Far Nations used as a model for nation building and culture building, they had deep respect for our tradition , culture and our Harmony . Nobody was poor , even a simple man had three type of drink to a stranger , no doors were locked , all were welcome ! Look at our Temples , Palaces and the monuments we built , they mesmerised by their sheer presence , they captured people's imagination , they were bestowed with the best of the best jewels the world had to offer , they commanded respect by their sheer grandeur .We didnt hear about poverty at that time , all we knew was love , camradrie , valour , Dignity , Respect to others and atlast bu not least to Have fine taste in everything we do . we were spiritual and religious in the right way ,we gave umpteen religions to the wrold , Budhism , Jainism and spiritual Gurus like Adhi shankarar, Gauthama Budhha and countless numbers of Texts and verses like Vedas , Upanishads which taught how man to live life in the righteous way and the way to Dharma and spiritual emancipation . Who can forget the great epics Ramayana and Mahabharatha ., from which all the other Natiosn great epics were outlined. But now the scenario is grave , where did we loose our roots ???? what happened to our richess ? what happened to our valour , vigour , Nation building, the respect we commanded , we are strewn with poverty , people are at logger heads to earn money , we have lost our dignity , our respect and now we are looking at other nations for help ??? what happened to our culture , tradition and customs ?? They are getting corroded day by day , the younger and the current generation are not fed or taught lessons of our past !!! The younger and current generation are not even aware that we had such a grand past filled with great legends and noble achievements . When are we going to make them realise , we were the decision makers for important happenings across the world at one point of time , how are we going to bring back our glorious past?? where have the Temples gone? where do we search for those great leaders , spiritual gurus ??? How do we Inspire the current generation to achieve the ancient valour and past richness ... Iam just Praying one day we would realise what we were and work towards achieving what we are !

New Newton's Law

NEWTONS LAW

"Love can neither be created nor be destroyed; only it can transfer from one girlfriend to another girlfriend with some loss of money."

First law:

"A boy in love with a girl, continue to be in love with her and a girl in love with a boy, continue to be in love with him, until on unless any external agent (brother or father of the gal) comes into play and break the legs of the boy."

Second law:

"The rate of change of intensity of love of a girl towards a boy is directly proportional to the instantaneous bank balance of the boy and the direction of this love is same to as increment or decrement of the bank balance."

Third law:
"The force applied while proposing a girl by a boy is equal and opposite to the force applied by the girl while using her sandals


OMG ..amazing .. the above three laws are really hilarious and mind blowing ..well to be frank , it indeed reflects today's scenario in Love and what exactly influences love in the current world .. its been really a long time since i wrote something but these laws caught my eye .. the guy or the person whoever composed these laws are expert in Love and certainly have had a sour taste in love that is why this sarcastic attitude towards love ... but then it indeed reflects their awesome sense sensibility and wit...

I had a good laugh hope you guys have too .. :)

See you soon ..cheers

The Champions of The World!

" We are the champions , We are the champions ,

No Time for Losers

We are the champions of the world"..

The song by Queen reverberating in my ear as our Midas Touch Dhoni smashed the Ball for a SIX to lift the ICC Cricket world cup 2011!!!!!

What a feeling it was , couldn't describe by words , the same must have been the feeling of 1.21 billion people across INDIA.

We all became Kids once again , dancing in the Isles , distributing sweets , hugging each other , jumping in joy , we all were elated .

It was even more delightful to watch those 15 men becoming KIDS .. Tears of Joys , the sense of achievement, after the fall , 28 years of relentless fighting , striving for the crown and the glory and fighting for the dreams of 1.21 billion people and the burden gave away to Pride.

It was really humbling to see every member of the Indian Team playing and supporting for each other , the comradrie and the way the dedicated the win to the "Hercules of Cricket World" Sachin "The Great" Tendulkar. It was touching to see the Great Man in Tears after the achievement , of which he thought will elude him in his career.

Sachin is a legend now and how he inspired the Indian Team to win Sita Back will become a Fable and how he inspired Yuvraj and Yuvraj was calmed down by a " OHM" locket will all become etched in the pages of unforgettable history

The Hercules still has to achieve few things like a Test Series win in Australia , One day & Test Series win in South Africa and he has to gather his strength to score a 400* to break the The Trinidadian Prince B.C Lara's record.

Well i can only wish our Midas man to continue his magic and to win all the coveted trophies in the cricket world .

Mr.Gary " The Calm " Kirsten has proven why he was a great opener and also how humble can be a Human Being , i wish him success in all his future endeavors.

Kudos to the Entire Team , Each team member as and when given a chance and the support staff especially Paddy Upton and others did a fantastic Job.

Selectors did a fantastic job by persisting with the same bunch and giving them the much needed confidence and assuring that they will be supported all the time.

Abroad!

First trip abroad is supposed to be the most exciting feeling for anyone , getting on an international flight , first co -passenger , first immigration check , first visa , first stamping ., all are very exciting moments .. for some its their dream to travel abroad , for some ist business , for some its a fun trip but for sure its a very learning and cherishable experience . Im a little excited , little nervous but i bet this will be a learning experience .

Iam writing this post form KSA ( Kingdom of Saudi Arabia) , to be frank this place has a lot of restrictions and rules and its completely Islamic. My observations are that , Riyadh the capital city is kind of vibrant but still very much conservative and not many places to visit as such.Water will cost more then your Gas/petrol !!!!
This place has a lot of cars , well i suspect this place has a lot of cars , cars more then people , cars of all brands and kinds and the road are pretty wide and huge.
The other good thing is that interesting architecture around , huge buildings of fascinating shapes and sizes especially the Kingdom Tower and few moe are under construction .
Heard few malls are aroud , yet to visit them , iam sure they will throw up a different experience .
The society is very closed and conservative , hardly see anyone talking to each other and even if they do its of their own kind, the tolerence level have to go up and yes language is a problem , may be in future if the society opens , this will be tourist paradise too ,lets wait and watch .
