The need for investment in infrastructure, education for raising level of worker skills, and wage subsidies for those left behind, in the world economy of 2014-2030
10/06/2014
This research in the Economist on the world economy shows the effects of technology are benefitting fewer people, leaving less skilled workers poorer than before, and creating large income gaps, more inequality. How to address these problems are a challenge for just and effective governance. Technology even at Hon Hai in China is shifting work to robots, and the question is how the millions of people in India can find jobs when technology can enable manufacturing with fewer people.

The Modi administration's budget for India in 2015 aims for 7.4% growth- allowing a fiscal deficit at 3.9% and increased spending on infrastructure
02/28/2015
The $288 billion budget aims to increase infrastructure spending to achieve a growth rate of 7.4%. A 2% tax on the superrich and rigorous penalties of 10 years imprisonment for tax evasion by sending money overseas are efforts to improve tax revenues in a country where it is estimated only 35 million Indians pay taxes. The lower oil prices help reduce pressures from fiscal deficits, and the decision was taken to let the fiscal deficit increase to 3.9% in the interests of growth.

Infrastructure needs in India, Indonesia, East Asia and the need for innovative financing methods 2013-2015
02/21/2010
This is high on the agenda at the G-20 meeting in Moscow in Feb 2013. India which has an estimated $191 billion in infrastructure needs annually, according to the World Bank, is pushing for this. Lower than potential growth in India of around 5% for the fiscal year ending in 2013 is a problem for the global economy, as this hurts both developed country exports and holds up growth by not freeing up bottlenecks in transportation and electricity infrastructure.

We took a different way to help millions around the world build educated informed mindsets that affects and shapes their lives. For a future that is open, global and digital, with everyone having access to high quality information. We believe in the renewal of America, renewal of Europe, the renewal of India, the rest of Asia, Latin America and Africa. The renewal of our supply chains, health, education, infrastructure, as we rebuild our countries after the pandemic. Literacy and knowledge we believe cannot thrive and grow in a world of web bots, web crawlers, or AI. This requires human curiosity, human learning, and human imagination. We take as inspiration the saying- “One has to be free, and as broad as sky. One has to have a mind that is crystal clear, only then can truth shine in it.” Every contribution whether big or small is precious- in this crisis and ahead.
