I will say money is a wonderful tool of excahnge & the problems in world are mostly connected to the lack of money.<BR/>Most people in india invest in education primarily to earn more money. It is economic interest primarily. Anything that cannot reward financially will not sustain itself in the long run. Hence the brain drain cannot be stopped unless adequate rewarding job opportunities are available in plenty in the Indian society. It wud be interesting to point out that it was because of the foreign exchange contributed by NRIs that India was successfully able to withstand the shock of economic embargo after the pokhran nuclear explosion. If Indians were not able to export their knowledge, the problem of unemployment wud have been aggravated with not enough job opportunities for all.<BR/><BR/>mail me at : happy2sing@gmail.comAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
