my mba pursuit: October 2006

Monday, October 02, 2006. Gandhiism, Gandhigiri is big in India. You turn on th TV today and it's all about Gandhiji today. It's a shame that i have not been able to visit Sabarmati ashram yet (know here in Gujarat as Gandhi Ashram). Anyway every one is talking about Gandhiji today. A one movie (munnabhai) has created a "Vamal", circles in steady water. It'll be great to see how long does this last. I hope for ever. There is a website gandhigiri.org that's come up and spreading words about Gandhiji.

Friday, December 29, 2006. I have been sick last few days. I have not had chance to enjoy the free four days. Folks here are planning some new year bash. I can't be part of that either. Not the best four days i would have had liked them to be. So here is the snippet of mfi (from my report on risks in MFI) the way i see. So what is microfinance? Anyone can guess from the word what micro finance can be. When financial transactions are performed in small (micro) amount, the activity is called microfinan...

Thursday, March 08, 2007. Some one will show the GDP, some one will show the stock market, but today I saw something that was a bit different. Udayn Mukherjee, the TV reporter was asking questions to Mr Kamalnath the commerce minister on CNBC TV 18, the confidence of Udyan showed me. So last resort is to ban the exports. It sounds logical, but here is the catch the free market economist’s theory would say this is wrong. If this is how we protect markets/consumers are we ready to take on wor...Make your c...

Thursday, November 30, 2006. Rudy Giuliani on leadership . Video from CSPAN. Monday, November 27, 2006. Walmart ready to enter india? It looks like they are. WSJ is reporting that they will partner with Bharti a cellphone giant who own BPL, idea and airtel. The mode of entry was also the way i had thought they would do . Do all the back end stuff and let the partner do the front end . Official reason for such as policy. It'll jeopardize the interest of small vendors. So inevitable is about to happen .

Wednesday, April 26, 2006. Three days .three more tornedos. I guess I’m getting used to these touchdowns. Just like the folks in Midwest. Twisters are not new for them and Quiz is not for me (US). I heard some one saying if we don't have quiz tomorrow I’ll feel weird. I fully concur. Anyway three quizzes (all surprise) were fun; I think I did well in two. Especially with the level of my preparedness. Sunday, April 23, 2006. Oil is at highest ever price and so is gold. Where is the economy going? I would ...
