Uniformly bad picture can be seen. Are we fools?
APPLES imported from Fiji; Washington State (West Coast), US; etc are sold at outrageous prices and we blindly buy them ignoring the thick wax coating on the outside (to preserve) and not knowing whether they were plucked when our grandmothers were born!
NOODLES, SPAGHETTI, etc are sold here at high prices after being manufactured a year back in Italy etc but IMPORTED FRESH a month back into India! Even the taste is horrible because suited to their culture
TABASCO SAUCE etc: do we really need the west to teach us about spices? At loot-o prices?

Breakfast food:
KELLOGGS CORNFLAKES: Do we really need to buy Kelloggs cornflakes at 3 times the price (of local brands), made from hybrid US corn, tasteless, keep chewing like cow?
OATS: Many foreign brands have invaded India market. Over priced, same nutritional value?. (May be stale because imported long after being manufactured there)
MUESLI: This Swiss breakfast food may be OK for those who like to chew grass, do we need it having tasty upma/ idli/ dosa/ kachori etc?
MOHUN MEAKIN, HP: Let me share this name with you. 150-175 years ago a Britisher set up a whisky unit in Solan Hills, HP: probably good limestone country. Later he added cornflakes after tasting the desi/ (gavti/ naati) corn grown there. Around 1947 his descendants sold to an Indian and went back. Buy the cornflakes at one third the price of Kelloggs, nutritious, tasty, easy to digest. The whisky I leave to your judgement!!!

Chocolate:
Do we need to pay Rs 10 for 8 gm Cadbury?
BYCULLA, BOMBAY, MFR sells chocolate (ordy./ sugarless/ white/ less sugar) for cake making and is available for Rs 90/ 500gm slab in Metro supershop. Very good for eating also as less sugar, preservatives. Dont remember the name
CAMPCO: Do you know Cadbury is CHEAT AND RASCAL? They persuaded Mangalore and North Kerala farmers to start cocoa crop to feed Cadbury. Ghana producers promptly cut prices and Cadbury remained faithful to them. Our kind Government has allowed Cadbury to continue importing at low duty even where local supply is there. These poor farmers took loan and started Campco factory near Mangalore. Excellent quality at prices much lower than Cadbury (They also supply some of Nestle brands). Insist on your local kirana/ super market stocking this brand!

"....whisky unit in Solan Hills....."
Ah, you brought back great memories of Solan no.1, one of the finest malt whiskys I have ever had. Haven't seen it in last few decades though. Haven't gone to HP for years either.
Campco? never heard of it. MFR? |

Vinay: Very simply CAMPCO= Cooperative of cocoa growers of Coastal Karnataka + North Kerala + Karnataka Govt+ Kerala Govt. They make white chocolate, dark chocolate, copy of "5 star", copy of "kitkat", copy of "eclair", etc. Also supply to Nestle under their brand/ packaging

Let's see if you can stop using LPG and go back to Gobar and Coal stove  .
Nitin bhai, all the imported brand of cars you drive (bmw, land rover....), send them to me please and I will send Ambassador in return 
Also that iPhone... 
Stop using your computers, Windows or Mac Os is made in USA (don't stop it, you need it to access iCharts).
Nitinp,
The reason for quality issues are because they know that you will ragad it for 4-5 years...rather than buying new every year

In EVERY area foreigners are making a fool of us taking advantage of our craze for PHOREN!
COURIER COMPANY: Have you booked a letter to be sent urgently to your US relation. May be bank, broker, tax document? Paying Rs 900? Rs 1500? Promised 5 days delivery? Track your document thru our web site?
The reality is DHL/ Blue Dart/ etc will book your letter / parcel thru INDIA POST paying a fraction and India Post gives it to US Post who pass it on back to DHL/ Blue Dart US!
INDIA POST: Last year I sent by India Post an airmail paying Rs 15 and it reached California within 120 hours of posting. While putting cargo in airlines, priority is given to Government post and any space left is given to private companies!
INDIA COURIER: They charge less than half the amount charged by foreign courier, if u dont want to use India Post!

FOREIGN BANK: Do you know there are HAJAR cases of malpractice filed against foreign banks. We see the revealing dresses of the young ladies at the counter and get hypnotized into giving them our hard earned money!
HSBC: is fighting a case where they looted Rs 15 cr from a Bharat Natyam dancer Kavita? Krishnamurthy who foolishly trusted them with her money and went on foreign dance tour! Google Krishnamurthy+HSBC+fraud case: you will get large document with lots of cases which looks like crime thriller.
When my father passed away in 2006, he left some money and shares in HSBC. They tried very hard to persuade us to retain the shares etc there as they could levy huge charges on maintenance and withdrawal (No charge allowed by RBI for transmission to heirs!)
Citibank: Our loan account still had Rs 15 debit after paying back loan, so I paid in Rs 15 cash on 29 Sept 1990. Next day the account was shown as having Rs 30 debit! When I shouted and went to grab the manager's necktie, he hurriedly promised to rectify the same. You see, they wanted to charge us Rs 1500 out of pocket for 6 months and this cheating comes naturally to them. If people are even slightly overdrawn, Citi coolly sells their best blue chips at way below market price and I suppose they enjoy after office hours!

Prakash,
It was suchitra krishnamurthy the actress and singer and ex wife of shekhar kapur. and the amt involved was about 4 crs. It was a case of mis selling of MFs.
And Kavitha Krishnamurthy is also a singer and not a dancer and also not looted by HSBC.
Tks

I thank you for the correction but my basic contention remains that HSBC is a chor and lootera.
BTW SK has filed for damages caused due to mismanagement of funds as portfolio managers (NOT MF), mental agony, stress and harassment.
For a fraction of their fees, but unfortunately WITHOUT YOUNG LADIES IN REVEALING CLINGING CLOTHES, Indian banks can keep us happy doing our transactions as desired!
See this: http://blogs.rediff.com/thebravepedestrian/2012/05/01/hsbc-bank-india-uk-europe-usa-cheats-nris-high-net-worth-individuals-portfolio-asset-wealth-management-mortgage/
THERE ARE HUNDREDS OF COMPLAINTS IN THE PUBLIC DOMAIN AGAINST HSBC for its thuggish and cheating ways. There have been 560,000 complaints since 2006, with over 38,000 such complaints in 2010 – 2011 and 58,000 complaints in 2009 - 2010. HSBC is skilled in focusing on people who are going through a crisis in their personal or professional lives, and are therefore unable to pay attention to their finances. Such people need someone to rely on, and HSBC Bank’s relationship managers are specialized in getting the customer to confide in them, and then systematically exploiting the ups and downs of their lives.

By The Way, RBI is worried about giving New Banking Licences to Real Estate Kings and other Indians saying that they may loot the customer, may focus on their own industry while giving loans etc. RBI is also systematically putting pressure on NBFCs to shut down or stop lending activities. Recently SEBI made a big fuss about Sahara Companies and their OFCDs.
BUT NOTHING IS BEING SAID BY THE GOVERNMENT OR SEBI OR RBI OR PUBLIC ABOUT THE LOOTERAS LIKE CITIBANK OR HSBC!!!!!!
