Give back whatever you can...

This is an article that appeared on Network World. Although this is not very much related to what I want to post on my weblog, but I could not hold back posting this. Please see the part about the guy, Anil wanting to do well in his studies. Well no surprises there. Everybody wants to do well in their studies. But why does he wants to do so well? So that companies from foreign countries can recruit him and then he can live comfortably in the US or some other country. Does not it occur to anyone to do well so that they can work towards improving India and helping her develop even further? It may seem ironic coming from me, an indian living in US. But I am not here by choice. I want to go back one day, open a high tech consultancy and R&D company and help India become one of the best countries in the world. I am an Indian and am proud of it and I want everyone to be proud of it. India gives me so much, I want to give it back a part of it at least...

I hope every student and aspirant thinks this way. And I also would urge the expatriates living in other countries to think what they can give back to India.
