§ Get together in DEC 2011 [1 Update]

I dont know whether we need to set a social agenda for a get together which
happens once in a while. I am very much in support for the topics mentioned
by Ciby, which we can discuss here or on our facebook forums. May be after
dicussions here, if we want to take it up further in action, ofcourse we
can include in the Get together agenda.
I think all these Rs 1 / Kg rice schemes have made the keralites even more
lazy. As such we are turning to be the diabetic capital of world. Its a
pity that govts dont try to encourage people to earn their bread by
hardwork. Politics thrives on the poor. So they need the poor not to come
up in life. Free or subsidised Rice, TV, Gas, Petrole/ diesel etc can only
harm the poor on the long run. Rs 13000 crore spent on koodamkulam power
plant which can generate 2000MW, is 97% complete. Now it looks like the
project may be shelved. Who is responsible for this tax payers money? A
former CM said to have looted 1500 crore. He can afford to pay each and
every voter in his constituency and win again to say 'in democaracy, people
verdict is final!'. Another of his minister, son of a retd police constable
is said to have looted 15000 crore... owns 3 helicopter, Rolls Royces..
Golden Chair, plate, spoon etc.. Just 15 years back, he is said to have
been roaming in a cycle and then in TVS champ! It seems in Singapore, they
planned early, spend quiet lot of money on waste / water management to keep
the city so clean. In kerala day today waste management is becoming a
nightmare. Instead of forseeing these problems 15-20 years back, govts
happily disbursed all the tax payers money on the so called poor. There is
said to be a debt of Rs 17000 on every malayalis head, Govts are happy
subsidisng everything. Welfare of 3.5 crore people are more important than
taking care of loss making KSRTC employees. The services are so horrible.
Bed bugs, Leakages are the norm there. If they cannot run it properly, let
them give it to private sector and tax them. At least it will ensure
quality service and competition. Even in Railways, they provide
same quality service they gave 30 years back. Air India is said to have an
accumulated losses to the tune of 43000 crore! What social
responsibilty did they do for the poor. Most of the Govt lands are being
distributed to the so called poor everywhere. Nothing is being preserved
for the future generation.In all I think only the deserving poor needs to
be taken care by the system. 10 years back one kid told me that when he is
old, he wants to be a peon atleast in govt service! May be today kids might
say i want to be a 'poor' when i grow! In short, i want people like Anna
Hazare to go much beyond corruption

§ g2gether : Really, do we all need to end up something like this [1 Update]
thomas mathew
<thoma...@yahoo.com> Nov 18 09:28AM -0800
since there is loud thinking about our second g2gether, thought the following
story would be relevant, notwithstanding all those profound thoughts about
eradication of poverty to corruption from the society being mooted as agenda
items!
:o)
A group of 40 year old buddies discussed where they should meet for
dinner. Finally it was agreed that they should meet at the Ocean
View restaurant because the waitresses there had low cut
blouses and
were very young.
Ten years later around 50 years of age, the group once again discussed
where they should meet for dinner. Finally it was agreed that they
should meet at the Ocean View restaurant because the food there was
better than most places and the wine selection was extensive.
Ten years later around 60 years of age, the group once again discussed
where they should meet for dinner. Finally it was agreed that they
should meet at the Ocean View restaurant because they could eat there
in peace and quiet and the restaurant had a beautiful view of the
ocean.
Ten years later, at nearly 70 years of age, the group once again discussed
where they should meet for dinner. Finally it was agreed that they
should meet at the Ocean View restaurant because the restaurant was
wheel chair accessible and they even had an elevator.
Ten years later, at almost 80 years of age, the group once again discussed
where they should meet for dinner. Finally it was agreed that they
should meet at the Ocean View restaurant because they had never been
there before!'
By the way we see a lot of future anna hazares among us, with profound
views, which is an encouraging sign !!!!
regards.
