Bhuban da,
I agree with you that one big impediment is the stark inefficience with which the State Govt. officials act. Personally, But its not just state. govt., similar is the case with bank officers, Regional Passport Officer etc.
When you visit any of these offices, the first impression is a lack of total interest of your presence.
Above that they are just plain rude. If you are lucky, you may get a ' ki lage upunak?' or a ' aji nohobo dei, in-charge manuh jen nai, kail le ahi bosun'.
In any case, small as these things seem to be, they would discourage any small time investor.
The other big impediment is the need for an investor know that his/her investment is safe and will yield returns. With problems with the insurgency, big time investors will shy away.
Add to these the state holdiday scheme - "BANDHS".
IMHO, even given these factors, those interested, could still attract some small investors on a short-term basis. There are still many businesses who seem to doing great right there in Guwahati. Many of the private businesses have great customer service, a smile on their faces, and want to be successful.

>>>There are many members in this list , settled in the USA, UK etc., who are millionnaires. I wish some of them would get together and make an effort to open one in Guwahati / Assam. The Govt will only be too willing to help them.<<<I don't think there are many millionaires in UK or USA as suggested. I agree they could be small investors. However, people have lost confidence on Assam Government offcials' efficiency in such matters.I expect people to disagree with me on my submission. At least that is my personal experience.Bhuban
