r2i forum

Whether this is a good time to invest depends on the time horizon, long term I am bullish on India. There really isn't much growth left in the western countries, emerging is the place to be. Short term, hard to predict, but I am not as optimistic about Europe. I think things will get worse before ...

Is it really true that Chinese look down upon the Indians? is there any sort of discrimination at workplace or outside? I have seen some forum posts suggesting this, not sure if this is really true or not.

This is a little off-topic...but I am curious what drives Indians in Singapore to R2I. Understand the reason for the OP, but would like to hear from others in Singapore thinking about R2I.
