Dear Indians, WE CAN MAKE A HUGE DIFFERENCE TO THE INDIAN ECONOMY BY FOLLOWING FEW SIMPLE STEPS. Please spare a couple of minutes here... for the sake of India ... our country. Small example, Before 2 years 1 US $ = IND Rs 39 After 2 years, Now it is 1 $ =IND nearly Rs 50 Do you think US Economy is booming? No, but Indian Economy is Going Down. Our Economy is in u'r hands INDIAN economy is in a crisis. Our country like many other ASIAN countries is undergoing a severe economic crunch. Many INDIAN industries are closing down. The INDIAN economy is in a crisis and if we do not take proper steps to control those, we will be in a critical situation. More than 30000 crore rupees of foreign exchange are being siphoned out of our country on products such as cosmetics, snacks, tea, beverages... etc which are grown, produced and consumed here. A cold drink that costs only 70 / 80 paisa to produce is sold for NINE rupees, and a major chunk of profits from these are sent abroad. This is a serious drain on INDIAN economy. We have nothing against Multinational companies, but to protect our own interests we request everybody to use INDIAN products only for next two years. With the rise in petrol prices, if we do not do this, the rupee will devalue further and we will end up paying much more for the same products in the near future. Surely all the products are going to cost 20 % more when Uniform GST of 16% is going to be introduced in April 2011 from the present 4% VAT in many states. What you can do about it? 1.. Buy only products manufactured by WHOLLY INDIAN COMPANIES. 2. ENROLL as many people as possible for this cause. Each individual should become a leader for this awareness. This is the only way to save our country from severe economic crisis. You don't need to give-up your lifestyle. You just need to choose an alternate product. Indian Govt. cannot buy any other Aircraft Except Airbus or Boeing. Hospitals Cant have alternative Products except to buy CT Scan or MRI from GE, Philips, Toshiba, Siemens Etc., But now we too have Indian made cars, few medical equipments are made in India. But Major Chunk of our Precious Foreign Exchange go out of India through FMCG products. In this aspect China is faring far better than India. Chinatotally avoid buying/selling any multinational FMCG products. In China, one could not find "Britania Milk bikis", "Nestle", "Colgate -toothpaste" Head & Shoulder- shampoo". They always use only chinese brand products. All categories of products are available from WHOLLY INDIAN COMPANIES.

EVERY DAY IS A STRUGGLE FOR A REAL FREEDOM. WE ACHIEVED OUR INDEPENDENCEAFTER LOSING MANY LIVES. THEY DIED PAINFULLY TO ENSURE THAT WE LIVE PEACEFULLY.. THE CURRENT TREND IS VERY THREATENING. MULTINATIONALS CALL IT GLOBALIZATION OF INDIAN ECONOMY. FOR INDIANS LIKE YOU AND ME IT IS RECOLONIZATION OFINDIA ... THE COLONIST'S LEFT INDIA THEN. BUT THIS TIME THEY WILL MAKE SURE THEY DON'T MAKE ANY MISTAKES. WHO WOULD LIKE TO LET A" GOOSE THAT LAYS GOLDEN EGGS" SLIP AWAY. PLEASE REMEMBER: POLITICAL FREEDOM IS USELESS WITHOUT ECONOMIC INDEPENDENCE RUSSIA , S.KOREA , MEXICO..........THE LIST IS VERY LONG!! LET US LEARN FROM THEIR EXPERIENCE AND FROM OUR HISTORY. LET US DO THE DUTY OF EVERY TRUE INDIAN. FINALLY: IT'S OBVIOUS THAT U CAN'T GIVE UP ALL OF THE ITEMS MENTIONED ABOVE, SO GIVE UP AT LEAST ONE ITEM TO FOR THE SAKE OF OUR COUNTRY.
