India seems to be doing quite well. It joins a very small elite group. Meanwhile hapa nyumbani we are still involved with bread and butter issues. http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/science-environment-24729073

This is like someone saying that they won't buy a car (which is a luxury to many) because they are from a poor family and 1/3 of their clan is still poor. At least India is dreaming BIG. What if the US would have put off space exploration until none of her citizens was classified as poor? What about Russia?

India can copy Scandinavian countries which have reasonable societies by focusing on the basics I may be wrong..but then I could be right

India can copy Scandinavian countries which have reasonable societies by focusing on the basics Should Kenya be building superhighways while millions of her citizens are living in slums? India is spending $72m (Ksh 6B) for the project. Compare that with the Ksh 15B kenya wants to spend for std 1 laptops. Or 9B used to procure useless BVR kits.
