Our invaluable universal truth not understood by other countries is:
Use the national resources, get trained and serve the global by taking their citizenship rather than being a miser, nation focused. Is it not the real Indian style of globalisation?

To become a world power universities need to create an environment that promotes free thinking, promotes creativity, research and innovation. The universities need to create a culture in which they are driven intellectual pursuits. This will require lots of money and resources.--At this time most Indian universities are like teaching factories. Let us not forget that a large number of universities in the North are infested with party politics and Goonda Raj. Politicians have poisoned the academia which has led to poor quality of education. There are universities in UP, Bihar and MP where professors are intimidated, beaten up and murdered. India cannot become a super power, let alone becoming an economic power in this century. More than 60% of youth in India are still struggling to find a suitable job.It is very true that those parents who have money and resources will continue to send their children abroad. And those who are really smart already know that India's cultural comforts are not enough. Hence such a group will keep seeking better job opportunities and life abroad. Bringing out the best in young people requires a vibrant academic. It also requires a competitive work environment. Unfortunately, such environments are missing in most universities. A few pockets of excellence such as IITs, IIMs are not enough to transform India into a super power.Kuldeep Nagi, PhD

Very Good Morning.The situation was different during that time and across the world education was at low level.
Today , the business dynamic is different in knowledge economy . Education and related skill sets are the drivers.
We see renewed efforts toward skill development in India and if education gets the same push , things may change for better in near future.
The statement of Dr. Amartya Sen holds some merit with the argument given in the present context.

If we look at the shop floor of our manufacturing units, our uneducated workers know more that our engineers. In textile industry, there is a very interesting practice to which I have been witness for many years; whenever a new technical boss arrives at the shop floor, the worker creates some kind of glitch in the machine and surrenders that he doesn't know what and how things have gone wrong and how to set it right. The action and achievement of the said engineer at this point decides how much respect, obedience and co-operation he is going to get from the workers.

Subject: Re: [MTC Global] Amartya Sen: India can't become a global economic power with an uneducated, unhealthy workforceDear All,
In the 17th Century India had international market share about 27% (when Adam Smith (1723-90) and Thomas Macaulay (1800-59) were just emerging), whole Europe and US combined was 21%, in 1947 we had roughly 2% and today after 68 years of independence it is hardly 1%.
What are the reasons? We have isolated knowledge, attitude and skills. There is nothing surprising that advanced countries make us to dream as emerging super economic power, the youngest country, demographic advantage, etc., naturally with hidden agenda. When our Kings of Princely States used to visit UK, British workers used to be damn happy because the King used to give them a tip of several pounds! Agarkar was pleading social revolution first and then country's freedom. Sister Nivedita has written a century ago that Indian parents mind-set is: the only objective of education is earning more money.
Instead of focusing on mass-education or literacy and agricultural sector we embraced something different. Our elite class is happy to get good education and jobs in foreign countries, on the plea that India is unable to provide us the conducive climate. Is it a real path to make India a global country? Whom we are serving? Under such circumstances no party can turn up side down, even after a decade.
A heavy stroke/impact cannot be generated by a soft hand!

Subject: Re: [MTC Global] Amartya Sen: India can't become a global economic power with an uneducated, unhealthy workforceVery true.
Lot of hype is being created about India being super power.
We need to address to the fundamentals first.
1. All experts claim about demographic advantage of India that
60 % of our population is young .
But what is its quality? what is its Productivity?
2. Our exports are declining even at previous levels our share in International Trade
is not even 1 %
3. Our share in world tourism as well is also much below 1%
These two factors are the main and important determinants of any nation
looking for high growth . The competitiveness of any nation depends on
its exports and its share in International trade and Share in Tourism.
Why Tourism ? Because tourism is always at the apex of Industrial growth
and capability Indicator . Normally When tourism is good all other things in a country
on other indicators are taken care off automatically .
Good tourism share is indicator of Good infrastructure,Facilities,
Hospitality ,Overall economy,Capability and efficiency of people.
Tourism is soft and invisible industry /Business. Requires lot many factors
for success.tourism alone can employ millions of youth in this nation.
Thanks for raising this topic.

On Nov. 6, Nobel laureate Amartya Sen visited the London School of Economics (LSE) to discuss his new collection of cultural essays,Country of First Boys. Before taking the stage in the packed Old Theatre, Sen spoke to Sonali Campion and Taryana Udayar of the South Asia @ LSE blog about the Indian government's approach to development, Kerala as a model for universal education and healthcare in India, and his faith in democracy.
Q: You have said that looking at the end point of a debate is not an ideal way of understanding the wider discussion. This seems relevant in relation to economic policy today, where developing countries aspire to high and continuous growth. What's your view on the current Indian government's manner of pursuing growth?
Sen:Let me make a clarification first. The point about the end point not being the only issue asks what were the counter arguments that were considered? What were the different points of view that may or may not have been aired, even if the end point is correct? That only becomes relevant when you agree with the end point. In the case of the policy as it stands now, that is not the case. I think the end point is wrong. The argumentation process is wrong as well, but there are two distinct issues here.
India is the only country in the world which is trying to become a global economic power with an uneducated and unhealthy labour force. It's never been done before, and never will be done in the future either. There is a reason why Europe went for universal education, and so did America. Japan, after the Meiji restoration in 1868, wanted to get fully literate in 40 years and they did. So did South Korea after the war, and Taiwan, Hong Kong, Singapore and China.
The whole idea that you could somehow separate out the process of economic growth from the quality of the labour force is a mistake against which Adam Smith warned in 1776. It's an ancient danger, and he might have been right to think that the British government at the time did not pay sufficient interest in basic education for all. Unfortunately, that applies today to the government of India as well. It doesn't acknowledge the relevance of the quality of human labour.
That is the foundation of their mistake, their conclusions, therefore, are wrong. For example, they are trying to go suddenly for everything to be done by cash, which is meant to be an experiment. In one of his first interviews after winning the Nobel Prize this year, Angus Deaton said this is purely an experiment, but it's an experiment with the lives of the poor.
And I'm afraid I agree with him, and his scepticism towards it. There was a reason why someone as intensely keen on the market economy as Adam Smith thought the government has to make the country fully literate, this is something the government can do. America is meant to be very anti-government, but every American has a right to primary school education paid for by the government, you're picked up from your home by government buses, delivered to your state school and educated there.
India is trying to be different from America, Europe, Japan, Korea, Hong Kong, Singapore, Taiwan, China—all of them. This is not a good way of thinking of economics. So foundationally, the government's understanding of development underlying their approach is mistaken. Having said that, the previous government was terribly mistaken, too. But one hoped there might be a change, and there has been, but not for the better. All the sins of the past government have been added up.
