So like 30-50 times less than a "western" country. :/
- late2part 11y agotrue - but the curve is not what you'd expect. Apartments in Bangalore cost half of what they do in San Jose.
- sremani 11y agoIndia is a very divided country. So, if you are catering to top 10% of the population you are already in the ball-park of 100 million people, that pretty much beats out every Western country except USA. The number in middle class is about 400million, that is the number to focus at least for immediate future. The rest of 800 million, well, God Bless them!
- johansch 11y ago... because India won't take care of them?
- fillskills 11y agoThere is little justice in India if you do no have some kind of influence. So if you are poor = little real justice = yes, India currently doesnt care very well for their poor.
- subnaught 11y agoTrue, and not necessarily a situation unique to India.
- WWKong 11y agoCorrect. It is up to the Gods.
- curiousDog 11y agoNo, they'll be sending them your way to Sweden ;-)
- shripadk 11y agoIt's not hard to get them out of poverty. See this video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PVjZjPbHrFE https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PVjZjPbHrFE
- bandrami 11y agoThat's nominal; it's much higher by PPP. (Still much lower than the global West and North, of course.)
