Good article. This man is honest and not bitter. I like it. Too many people I 
know felt empty after going abroad. It was interactions with them that steeled 
my resolve to return to India. But India really is bittersweet. There are too 
many scamsters who are able to separate an NRI from his money. 

In the US - NRIs make an honest living ans still get relatively wealthy. In 
India making an honest living is not guaranteed to make you wealthy.  In the 
US dishonesty is almost guaranteed to get you into jail. In India dishonesty 
can well make you a king. 

The center is indeed diferent. I too am optimistic and I live in India. i look 
forward to a time when the honest in India can live well and without 
bitterness. Their time too will come. IMHO.
