I'll throw out some of my perceptions:


1. A lot of Indians that I've met with have a horrible mindset when it comes to IT. I complain about it all the time to co-workers. Just like Pakistanis, Indians are not very creative. They will not bother to iterate on anything by themselves. Its almost slave-like. Very aggravating to deal with.

BINGO

indians are not atall intelligent,they jst follow others and work hard like slaves

4. I wish your country would stop murdering Christians in some areas. Not saying all Hindus do it, but when I read about people being murdered for their religious beliefs, I am very saddened to hear it. Especially when many of the missionaries are trying to bring education and help to the people.

that happens rarely

also conversion by money is banned in india cause catholic and islamic missionaries forward their ideas

education isn't what you think,its like you said above.education in india is jst to educate people to fight towards a particular cause not to have free thinking which education should really be

1)Ok, Im an Indian, and im in IT, and I know exactly what youre talking about, and I'll tell you why that happens. I have seen perfectly good ideas proposed by our guys shot down during a requirement gathering phase by our honored clients(it came from an Indian after all!), only to be requested again towards the end of build.  Its honestly not worth the hassle.

4) Since I keep track of the news as much as possible , i can assure you incidents of missionaries getting killed in India are rarer than news of indian students getting stabbed to death in places like Australia or the UK.

as for religious intolerance, I have never, in my life, heard of a brahmin trying to convert a person to Hinduism. Isnt trying to convert people to your own religion the highest statement of religious intolerance of them all?

1) I can somewhat understand that. But the part that it becomes a major, major flaw is in Q&A. From my experiences, such rigid thinking results in horrendous issues during Q&A. Possible issues with the development & design of a project are not dealt with early, and become huge, time-eating issues later on.

4) In regards to religious intolerance, you're very wrong. Intolerance is where you do not permit dissenting views from being presented, and the exchange of ideas and ideals. Intolerance is where differing views are not respected or allowed. If intolerance was defined as trying to convert people, then countries like North Korea, Soviet Russia and Communist China would be the most free, tolerant societies in recent memory. But of course, the reality is that they have traditionally been the exact opposite.
