If I understood this right, it struck me as a bit strange. We will lobby with the host society and place the onus on them to ensure that their's remains a "fair society". At the same time, many expats like us will turn a blind eye to (or, in some cases, actually push for) the injustices going on in Amchee Mumbai, or even Glorious Goa... all in the name of curbing in-migration, preferencing locals, or the like.
