Everywhere you turn now, your hear about Outsourcing, India
Shining & India Dreams. Being a election year in USA, you also
hear about the backlash, the pros and the cons.
Today Ranga pointed me to an interesting article in Express India titled “Outsourcing: A few years ago nobody in US wanted to talk to Indians, now they are eager”
It is a well written, neutral piece (hard to find these days!). I liked especially the closing quote, given here verbatim:
As one Indian exec put it to me: The
Americans’ self-image that this tech thing was their private preserve
is over. This is a ‘‘wake-up call’’ for US workers to redouble their
efforts at education and research. If they do that, he said, it will
spur ‘‘a whole new cycle of innovation, and we’ll both win. If we each
pull down our shutters, we will both lose.’’
