Even keep all the factors aside- the global/external economy turmoil, scams, corruption, bad/failed governance, falling IIP, policy paralysis, Govt inaction, Lokpal log jam etc, just wondering what if it was a bad to worse monsoon in 2010 or 2011! Then was it possible to recover from the second recession/dip!? Would a bad monsoon prompt or force the Govt to take concrete real positive action and implementation instead of complete disaster inaction or some show offs like some bills passed for the name sake just as today the 13Dec2011? Well, India still should fill lucky as no big natural disaster has happened in the past two years. That will be the last thing any body would even fear.
Regarding the stock markets: well, when there is clarity, growth, affirmation, automatically money in form of FII (yes, that’s the reality, FII flow has been the determining factor on which side the market trend is!) will flow into the Indian markets, in fact, the right strong growing companies’ stocks. In fact, the current situation in the global arena is the best opportunity for India to act right, and automatically many things will fall in place. India, don’t miss this opportunity, you have missed it just earlier. As opportunity doesn’t knock the door twice at least so immediately.
Now coming back to the implementation/functioning, no doubt a clear anti-corruption practice/system at least will kinda make sure whatever is happening, positive or negative is not a show off or hidden scam or trap. I am not sure how a big (yes, big, we need even a big one practically) Lokpal or anti-corruption body/department/system will also remain corruption free practically until we really inculcate the anti-corruption culture not just in the heads but in practice as our very character.
(Well, I know and believe the roots of India than any part or country in the world are still very strong but the display has been completely dormant, actually no show at all! It’s time to switch from hibernate mode to normal system mode.)

I am Idea!
Hi, I am Idea…Hmmm…
Can’t you reckon me?
I am the one who is always with you,
I never want you to be in a queue.
I am the one who makes you feel
even in traffic and crowd when
it seems there is no way,
I stand up and show the way
so you can always be happy
have nice time and make hay.
I am in you and always with you,
so as not to make you feel at loss,
never can leave you alone; always
in your own-self, heart, blood and mind.
I am the one making you feel
stay tuned and stand tall,
very dynamic and mobile,
yet very much on the ground,
and stay firm, steady and still.
I am the one in every Win,
downs and ups, all the Time.Why do they try to shut the door,
ending the session so quick, do
they think to force me sleep?
Don’t they want me to be with you,
Or don’t they want you to be with me?
Then why do they want you to log-in,
just to be back home and be with me?
Can’t they give i/p option to tell them
how long you’d be at home with me?I am originally not so original,
that I keep flowing within you;
So let ’em not try to reproduce,
and duplicate me!Why do you make me so heavy,
by using those options as B,
I tell you I don’t need (more) dress;
why do you make me tilt by that I,
I don’t like it much I must confess.Why did they name it Eureka –
Announcements section aka?
I can’t help but also laugh as
I get reminded of Archimedes.Why can’t one spend one hour
per day with you, me and our home?
Let me tell you –
Especially for those who
didn’t need to stay,
One hour extra was added
every working day.I love you so much,
and in so much with you,
I am priceless but
you never need to pay,
in order for me to stay,
I will be so happy
to be in this place
even within the limits
of characters and space,
I can manage and stay.I am so free, so you make me feel,
I can just flow at my will.
I feel so blessed, feel the bliss,
At cloud 9 in so much peace.Insider, Intruder and Competitor,
Forget their names and wrong
intents as they see us whenever;
they tell each other –
‘it’s not to be the job,
it’s not to be just the money,
and that it’s not all any more,
it’s also values and ethics,
and being smart and honest,
being always at best.
Why form an ally, and envy?
Oh dear, oh honey!You would be and want me
being (slim,) in form and
in shape, hale and
hearty, fit and sound,
So am ‘!’; and people now know
they can shed their fat(s),
can stay healthy and fit
if they laugh a bit,
develop the habit,
do yoga and always smile,
have healthy food daily and
walk at least a mile!Thanks to all, thanks for all!
I feel so obliged and say,
We can’t be separated,
You and I have found a Way!Hmmm…
I must tell you…
I am so full, know me Phool,
Plz let ’em not mark me a fool!If you say bye for now,
I would say ‘See you Soon!’.
*************************************
Ah! Friends, what can I tell you?
I feel so empowered,
So relishing the Time,
Being with Idea is never a crime.
Who says (only)
Life is beautiful?
I find Idea so bold
and so beautiful!
