Primitive Grubby
Mexico Travel Tour Information
India is a country that rejects the rules and has an aversion to change, which has made it a land of great freedom. A European equivalent would be Italy. The laws may exist in the book of the statue, but people only pay attention to whom they should or can not get away with it. Lax law enforcement and the attitude of live and let live keeps the whole system running. For example, drivers can make and take to the streets, including major highways, without a signal or even bothering to look in the mirror (if available). There is an expectation that traffic on the road give way to them, even if risks an accident, and I've seen a lot of close calls. Normally the only warning of other drivers who have to swerve or brake is a blast on the horn, because they know the next time you also want to take, they will do exactly the same, so life goes on – in a chaotic semi.
When journalists write about the new India which generally refer to the offices of a new, brighter and business parks on the outskirts of cities. Are those that have fallen somewhere in Europe and are full of young people seriously for the good times really are rolling. The middle classes have left the trains and now receives about country in the implementation airlines are competing hard for your business. Some of them (I particularly recommend Kingfisher Airlines) are really excellent. Another example of India is the subway in New Delhi. This is a work in progress with several lines being built by 2012 to run all over town to get to the airport international (which technically is in another state), with most lines being built in the cheapest way high. Most of this money is paid in Japanese, and exceptionally most of the equipment are imported and are not in India. And it is impressive, unlike any other place in New Delhi, which shines, it can eat your dinner of soil in the seasons and potted plants line the sides of the walls. The constant announcements telling people not to walk through the tracks (!) Spitting or littering, and unusual in India, we listen. One reason may be because security is so tight, with police patrols with sub machine guns and train records metal detector and bags just to get to the platforms.
Outside these showcases life in India is more or less as it did when I first came in 1989, this is particularly true in the countryside, where most Indians still live. At dawn, people still take the field to make his ablutions, water comes from wells and oxen pulling huge carts full of straw. Cooking is done in fuel cells in India are made of dung beef mixed with straw and piled in heaps and sold on the roadside. Roads are also in brick kilns, where bricks are being made hand and fired in primitive kilns. The working families who do not live in this most desperate poverty, their "houses" are little more than primitive tents made of rags and garbage in the corner of the brick factory. One reason these people live at work, is because they can not leave, are contract workers who work for pay past debt, sometimes from an earlier generation, in conditions of virtual slavery. In a region saw another agricultural / industrial processes, sugar allowance sugarcane. These factories primitive roads crush the cane shop in surrounding fields, with the "juice" then boiled in large pots. Lines of these factories belching smoke black, with sugar workers ladling hot outside containers that gives the impression of one of the first industrial scene, a bit like the early days of Coalbrookdale. However, India, this is modern.
If India is particularly immutable is nothing the government has from participation, and as a hangover from the era of socialist planning, which participated in a good deal. His interests range from banking and insurance (statewide) running the juice, but for now his main concern is rail operations. Apart from not now put into the steam engines of the entire rail system does not seem have changed at all in the past eighteen years. The train cars are pieces of metal, built to last feel to them, that is just as well that it seems to have been a penny for new investments for decades. Booking a berth is to fill out a form on cheap paper then join the hordes of queue for someone to enter your information in a computer system Seventies was. Indian Railways are the largest employer in the world with $ 1.6 million on staff, and looks like a giant employment system. As elsewhere in the government runs the India, there are plenty of 'supervisors' sitting around reading the paper and everyone calls for lunch. Surprisingly, the whole system works very well, even if (everything including travel) that usually occur slowly.
In Delhi, the cars still Ambassador line up outside government buildings Lutyens. These cars are based on the 1948 Morris Oxford design and are still made in India today. Although the president now has a BMW, the lower ranks will motor around sixty years old cars for some time. One of the reasons have remained current Ambassador is because they are sufficiently strong to cope with the roads of India. Widening of the road is now commonly seen as the bad roads are seen as a brake on economic growth. Much of the excavation work is performed by (locally) from JCB, but many still done by the workers, usually women who dig the earth in baskets and take him in the head. What do these people if they were all replaced by machines? In many ways, everyone has a vested interest in resisting the However, as these people do their jobs that just means more beggars living on the streets of cities.
For the tourist in India can be overwhelming, and has certainly become a more stressful place to visit. Resellers appear to be almost everywhere and the traveler is bombarded by questions all the time. "Want a rickshaw? "Look at my store?" "Which country?" or simply, 'What do you want? "Even more irritating is people seem to think they know what they want, so give commands like, 'You must go there now "or allegedly read your mind, tell you where is the box office, even when you walk down the street minding your own business. Normally there is a hidden motive of all this free advice, usually a postcard rickshaw or sales pitch. Add to all this, the following children down the street shouting 'Hello, hello "and tourists often feel they are under site.
Also the Indian tourism industry has not worked what they really want foreign tourists. Thus, in a country awash with cheap labor, the hotel walls are dirty, and sometimes things seem to have had a good cleaning for years. Of course, if you pay real money you can expect the best, but for most Indians in the tourist trade, if they think they can offer a comfortable price, then everything will be okay, no matter if you cut every corner. After all, I would not to interfere with all that time reading journal. In Nepal, the rules have been developed that tourists expect and, therefore, in general, offers a travel experience better. Not surprisingly, is a country that allows foreigners to own a business that drives up standards in India, this is almost impossible.
So what is the future of India? The economy is supposed to be overheating and a slowdown is expected. Inflation is rising and The Congress Party recently hit in state polls for the price of onions, which shows what really matters for most Indians. I think however, because of the strength of numbers just keep growing the economy and people are getting richer in relative terms. I can not imagine many parts of the country will be like the subway in New Delhi in the short term, there are too many vested interests in keeping things the same. But the cities will become increasingly frantic, more traffic and to shut down and the sound of the horns are heard across the world.
