I received quite a bit of interesting response to my last post about THE HINDU working in foreign partners. When I posted this note and a question for readers to judge, I had decided not respond because it was not related to investing. However, reading through this discussion, I can see many have put lot of thoughts behind their responses and I got to know differing viewpoints. I respect your differing opinions and hence I am compelled to present my thoughts too.
This issue seems to be a hot button (any of my investing post does not generate such a two sided discussion). I showed this post to few my friends and it generated similar debate. In almost all cases, there are folks on both sides of the aisle. Here also a very good debate from both sides.
In my view, I look at this aspect in three different time scales, viz., (1) Prior to 2000; (2) period between 2000 to 2008; and (3) 2008 onwards. I am not saying this is the only way, but we can only reflect on the past and project for future.
