Greed has its chime words: resourcefulness, ingenuity, hardwork, billions, etc. It's unfortunate that peoples lust for money allows these words to justify these slum like conditions. Economic Eugenics, its kind of the thing the West is known for propagating around the world. Some MBA's figure the coordination bits are worth 90-95% of the profit. Quick, show me a shiny building and talk about progress, or tell me what a very rich person has recently told us plebs. One question, if the west is going to bring back its manufacturing base with a little bit of AI and automation, do you think many of us will end up like this? Me, nah, these sort of buildings are illegal, and being homeless is basically illegal, right?

There are 2 kinds of "traditional toothbrush" in India. Neem and Meswak. 1. Neem Neem has strong antibacterial and antifungal properties, which can help reduce plaque and combat gum disease. It contains compounds that can help in reducing inflammation and promoting oral health. Neem has a slightly bitter taste, which some people may find unappealing. (You probably chewed on this) 2. Miswak Miswak is easier to use and has a more pleasant taste compared to neem, making it more palatable for daily use. Miswak contains natural compounds that can help with remineralization of teeth and may have fluoride-like effects. This is the more common of the two and is considered the better option due to its medical properties .

One of the problems of newly independent countries is getting administration and management in order. In India the British left a seriously depleted country whereven food was extremely scarce.But in 70 years to become 5 th in the world as a economic power is remarkable and many countries simply do not compare with this kind of growth.Overcrowding often follow in towns and cities after colonists leave.This is how Dharavi came to be.Rather than sit back and cry what the government can do the people have taken the initiative to help themselves.Many countries can learn from this.THIS HELPS A COUNTRY GROW.Yes there is still work to be done.Every country has issues.A countrys success is built on the initiative and drive of its people.God bless India.❤❤❤

This production system has existed in China and Japan. It is extremely flexible because there's almost no tooling costs. Setting a huge factory takes a couple of years and a huge investment in equipment. Once running it can be super efficient. But if the market changes a huge factory gets stuck in the past. These small centralized suppliers can quickly change to producing parts for a new product.

Sorry to say this: I first visited India in the early 1970s, but never had the chance of going back. Then my wife joined a guided tour of India in 2019, and from her description, there seems to be very little improvements over some 40 years. Though it is claimed to be the greatest democracy in the world, the governments elected by the Indian people did not manage to have done much to improve the lives of these hard working and ingenious people trying their utmost to make a living in such poor conditions.

The average age of someone living in slums is 39.5 years. Watching this video explains why they don’t live very long with all the nasty polluted products they are breathing and touching. I know these people seem to be happy at what they’re doing to some degree but this needs to get cleaned up. I don’t know how you solve this from a consumer point of view. You can personally ban buying items that are made in these sweatshop environments. But then people tell me that they have no work. Well years ago before there were so many slums they must’ve done something else. Life is complicated and ultimately we humans are making so much garbage that it is hurting everyone in the environment. We’re going to end up like a bad sci-fi movie. And as I come from Canada a first world country, what is my responsibility in this situation. I am a senior, and not much of a consumer anymore. However, for many years, I have bought used secondhand or antique things to put in my home, and even wear. But the quality of clothing that I see in the charity shops these days is terrible and they will send it to people in poorer countries. It is not worth even sending. They are so badly made full of plastic They pile up in garbage dumps. I guess I just keep doing what I’m doing and watch what I am purchasing..

All big international brands get all their leather goods from here. Theyre shipped and all they do is just brand the items with their logos and tags. And there are a ton of shops on the main roads in Dharavi where you can buy these items without the brand name on them (although theyre not allowed to sell them cos its for shipping). The shopkeeper which i go to also procures the products after their branding is done, so you could compare it to the same one without the brand name. And you buy them at a fraction of the cost.

I was in Mumbai ( Bombay) in 1973. The poverty and frenetic energy of the city was incompressible to me. Chaos amid chaos, sadness inside unimaginable poverty. I wanted to go home immediately. But, there was no OUT. This was it! A few days later I travelled. To Goa, East cost rural province, ocean side. There were amazing people, easy going, hard working. Less abject poverty. More room. It was there I began to assimilate and continue my travels. The next city I remember was Bangalore. The poverty was less but prevalent, only there was a shift in my perspective ot a spiritual essence I missed in Bombay. The kids following us everywhere we were smiling and had shiny eyes. They were adulating on the sight of Canadians and hoping for a tossed rupee or a pair of sneakers. I will always struggle with the poverty Mumbai and my heart cannot unsee what I saw. Yet my persctive is only one. People survived in these places. God lives lives there. He is the love that glues everyone together all depending on each other. Each other. Nothing's changed. Only highways to hide these joy workshops and bldgs that deny what's under them. Must love hard to get it.

Living in the slums looks rough, but I wonder if they pay an ever growing property tax, and 30 years of mortgage interest and insurance for those run down homes. I wonder if both parents work and pay strangers to raise their children. I'm not saying I'd like to trade places with them, but as I look at all the drug zombies walking through our neighborhood, I'm reminded there are different ways to look at poverty.

"Work where you live. Live where you work." It's in a way, the "dream," of the Western worker. Ofcourse, it's the quality of daily life, that makes the stark contrast. Work standards, safety issues, and much more, make India a far step away from the nearly micro-controlled, world of the American worker. There, the workforce makes it so, that humanity replaces everything that would be mechanized in America. Part of the process. Here, there's no computers, no robotic arms or hydrolic presses. No chemical sprayers or even chemical controls. There's nothing in the process of manufacture, except people. The one resource India seems to have in excessive supply.

Really? The west has slums that is Los Angeles, Chicago, Detroit tent cities also the ghettos and favelas in Brazil, Argentina where people don't even work and are busy snorting cocaine, taking drugs with unemployment everywhere. That's American cities right now with their unemployed, homeless population. That's what we see in Brazilian favelas. Just horrendous. Compared to them Dharavi in Mumbai is a heaven because there is a hardcore economic system and even students in Dharavi study hard. We have got so many brilliant minds who have humble beginnings in Dharavi. That's what defines hardworking Indians from the spoiled Americans.

Heartbreaking to watch really. It seems our gluttony for stuff is responsible for a lot of the poor conditions these super hardworking, savvy people have to endure. Some of those conditions would not be tolerated at all here. How sad is it that some lives are more thought of than others merely because of location. I love how unbiased you are showing the reality of the products we consume. We in the western world live with blinders on

Used Better Help one time. Went through the initial process and questionnaire aimed at (presumably) aligning me with an appropriate counselor. Paid about $150 USD upfront and began communication via text with my counselor. I explained in detail wmy history, prior diagnosis's, and goals for our work together. I received back rather blunt message in broken English from a recent Psychology grad living in India. After trying 2 more times to develop good communication and exchanges, it became obvious she lacked the English skills and professional depth to be of assistance. One hundred and fifty bucks wasted.

13:00 No disrespect to India but I would imagine that we too went through similar processes in the past, it is what it is. Fair enough that the Indians hold cattle Sacret and that is their lot in life. But because of the quality of leather used in their saddles, they, the Indian leather trade got a terrible reputation for sub quality and lack of durability. While I am picking faults, I have to ad the constant persistence of their endless door knocking and phone calling to sell a new power plan, but they have to make a bob somehow. But as a rural Aussie I have to thank them for buying up country business's and keeping them afloat and alive (many will disagree with me). We now have a servo again in our town, prices could be better but we have fuel. They are eager to please and I like doing business with them. 22:36 He's not a guy! He's a bloke, and here I was thinking you were an Aussie.
