I think this man is spot on so many fronts- happiness/life balance, about diarrhea in India. He has a lot of wisdom. The food is very different and is not compatible with your gut bacteria so it will take time to adjust.

I'm from northeast India with maximum Southeast Asian elements. Within India itself if we eat extra chilli (Other spice has nothing to do) in different states of India you will have diarrhoea. Plus if you don't drink lots of water then you can have serious viral fever, headache and body pain.

8:52 he's right, 95% of the seats offered to my mum on the MRT are the Indians, my mum was very grateful for this when she had a knee injury and had to travel to get treatment. Now that she's healed up well, she accepts their nice thoughts instead and tells them to take back their seat because they paid for it too, and needs it more than us (often they're otw back home after work or had a long day).

That is sad, as Indonesians who commute with KRL always force someone to give seats to the priority passengers. I quite often wake up someone who is sleeping because older or pregnant women take KRL. This habit comes from my awareness and experience of many working trips to Japan. So many elders that you can not ask someone to give their seat to a mom with kids or a pregnant lady. ( That is so sad) I guess Jabodetabek Workday's users are pretty savage, asking/waking up someone to give their seat to an older, pregnant woman, disabled person, and a person with a toddler/baby (regardless of the tribe and gender). If stubborn people don't want to give up their seats, just send DMs to Krl/mrts; the security will help ASAP.

​@@simsgazytech2013It is not sad, it is understandable because everyone had a long day and everyone just wants to sit and rest. During off-peak hours, the "needy" seats are usually empty here. We can't judge people by appearance, someone who seem young and healthy might have health issues that we have no idea of. Everyone is a paying customer, everyone has an equal share of taking the seat. 😉

offering to the needy is great,but some elderlies wanna stand,n refuse the seat offered,n some say its just 2 stops...u can notice more often in a train with available seats n some elderlies r standing!i've seen pregnant lady stand,while there were free seats too...indians/banglas even offer any ladies regardless of age...coz,indian culture believes women as weaker than men,n NEED to be cared for...unlike in Japan,offering seats to elderlies offends them!its like discriminating their strength,n also-elderlies r discouraged from taking train during peak hrs!

Diareha occurs due to change in food content cause suddenly your stomach cant empty the things you had 1st time in your life,diareha and india is also one of the propogandas tht western people started againts us,their is less than 1% of extreme poverty in india right now and now after the govts schemes which are going on i can bet on this that no person in india is starving or not getting atleast 2 meals a day,the infrastructre of india is getting better than 1st world country,just look at the channel name johny's desk on youtube you will get what i am saying,some things he said were partially wrong,but he told it in a real nice way not to offend us,but just pointing it out

Rightly said, The diarrhea is not because of air or any such thing. It’s a person’s micro-biome in the gut. The ecosystem of digestion enabling bacteria are different across people living in different regions and based on the food they consume.

After a lifetime of living abroad because of my parents jobs I decided to come back & settle down in India. I like the thought that I'll be contributing a very small part in re-building 21st century India. Anyone who knows our history knows we have gone through constant societal restructuring every few generations. And now is the post-western/post-capitalism restructuring. Thats why we get to see so many remnants & different phases of the past just sitting and collecting dust. Plus there's a lot more room for economic growth when you're a developing country; lots of opportunities for jobs, new architecture & just in general new development all around. Also I don't know why but I like the chaotic-laxness, the sweet to spicy, the old & new etc etc. It's diversity that's been bred through ages of being on this land.

I understand Andy's predicament as a working adult with a diploma holder in Singapore as I am in the same shoes too. But I stuck to the quest of acquiring better academic qualifications, transiting from manufacturing to IT back in the early 90s. I spent 8 years to study part-time while working full-time for my diploma, degree and masters. Eventually I did managed to transit into IT and work as a senior IT engineer. But my journey didn't end there, I managed to qualify for skilled migration to Australia so I took the plunge to move. That was back in 2006, since then I spent another 7.7 years to study part-time for my postgrad and PhD in AI while working full-time as an IT engineer and graduated at age 55. I am confident to say that the difficulty that I face in Singapore, motivated me to move and seek better avenue to improve myself given the lack of education opportunity that is available to me back in SG. Reflecting back on my past, I always think that I can be of something better, and I took the arduous path to actualize it despite facing a multitude of obstacles.

10:07. Sundar Pichai is from Chennai but graduated from IIT Kharagpur, just as I did 15 years before him. Educational loans are available at low interest in India. It used to be 4% back then in the '70s. The telephones were not available easily or cars not affordable back in '70s unlike today. Education in prestigious government premium schools are subsidized heavily.

I too got education loan from Indian Bank for 2009 to 2013 window. But the interest rates are too high.. I got loan at 10.5 then it got increased to 12.5% when I closed. And then I got personal loan from HDFC for 10%. I feel education loan should attract lesser interest rates compared to other.

@@jaideepts4911 well, I took out the loan in 1974-79 time frame. The inflation back then was not what it is today and hence the interest rates were also lower. Demand for those loans were also lower. In the entire country we only had 135 engineering colleges including the IITs . I couldn't get a loan to study abroad back then, which is all too common now. The foreign exchange reserve was anemic and hence paying for GRE and TOEFL involved lot of redtape.

Being an Indian Expat, I was looking for something like this for a long time , to understand how do they view such a country with broad bandwidth or say 2 or multiple extremes of economy , culture and positive/negative transformations. He is tremendously intellectual on what he shared. One thing I personally learnt the most in Singapore, may be its predominantly only in my company cause its a robotic company tranformed from startup , here People dont whine / badmouth behind , no pointing fingers without clarity and solution seeking without excuses with resources. That aside Pretty much recent generation (whoever got the job they wanted) are so workoholic and towards salary now unlike 2009 he was talking about, the software developers in India are bit more grinded / stressed , wheras in this island Country , from shop keepers to fintech Employees, its racy day always.

I think he expressed that india is different and how culture works around in India but I think one of the things he got wrong was that in India , you can get education loan. It’s not a necessity as families try to work around their own finances to get education to children but if the circumstances arise, there are banks that provide education loan- SBI is the biggest education loan provider in India .

India has a lot of diversity I will tell you two disco songs from India: 1) Rathipushpam from film Bheeshma Parvam from Kerala in 2021 2) Di Ruk Te by Sangtei Khuptong from Mizoram in 2023. Americans say they speak English, Thai speak Thai but as Indians they speak Hindi, English and either one or 2 state languages. India has 22 official languages. These days creativity in India has also improved There is Cadbury India and they created an ad 5 stars everywhere with 55 million views. Then there is a startup called Whole Truth Foods and they don't have Soy Lecitin, Emulsifiers and Invert Sugar Syrup in their products, they created an ad called Eat Protein not Chemicals which has 6.5 million views. Both these ads are really amazing. You can find Banana plantations in Kerala and Apple Orchards in Kashmir. India is like USSR or Yugoslavia in diversity.
