Hi,everybody.Here is a question about indian.I don't know why i don't like some indian persons who make business with me due to their dishonesty.But in fact,I really wanna be friends with them because of my huge interest in their old culture as China and their great people. So, if possible ,pls give some reference to learn more about them. Of course,especially welcome to Indian friends to introduce to me more about yourself.Appreciated here,thanks a lot!

Hi DanielTan, I am an Indian. First of all, I'm upset that you wrote about my country's people.. Even if there are some Indians who are dishonest that doesn't mean all Indians are like that..if we check in 100% ratio, only 2-5% are dishonest..by seeing one or two persons we cannot judge the people and their country...we have a good culture, understanding each others, sentiments or emotional feelings and forgive people easily...we always give the best wishes to all the people. we are proud to be an Indian..

They are many people who are dishonest all over the world. You don't find only in India but other places too. Don't put blame on any country, people are responsible for their acts and not nationality.

hey danieltan! i don't think that nationality matters in such cases. honest and dishonest persons are everywhere in every nation. we can not judge the whole nation by few peoples. and putting such kind of questions which points directly on persons nationality? this is not fair?

LOL I see you're regretting using the word "Indian" now Daniel... I know you didn't mean to be offensive towards all Indians you're just trying to understand Indians so that you can do business with them with greater personal benefits rather than getting tricked or scammed, right? Try to avoid using the phrase "i don't like some Indian persons" since it has obviously undermined the point of the discussion and has actually become the main point for Indians to talk about. Any way hope you have better luck next time. Maybe it's better to start a new discussion now cause the main point of your discussion is no longer being addressed, understandable however.

Well Mr. Daniel i perfectly understand your hatred against dishonest persons. But one should not blame the whole race or nation for some few dishonest people, whom you had unfortunately conducted business or had been associated with. You must be aware, that there are some people from every race, caste or creed, who are not reliable or lets say dishonest. So one should be cautious and be wary of the people they are conducting business with. Let me end my response by saying that i'm an indian, but of mongoloid race, residing in the northeastern part of India bordering Myanmar(formerly Burma) and China. And that, we are an honest and simple people. Hoping to hear from you soon.

DEAR DANIEL , I AM AN INDIAN AND EXPERIENCED IN KNOWING MANY INDIANS.SO NATURALLY I DO HAVE THE RIGHT TO TALK ABOUT INDIANS TO YOU............ WE INDIANS ARE MUCH FOUND OF OUR HOMELAND , OUR FREEDOM FIGHTERS AND THE GREENERY OF OUR MOTHERLAND,MOST OF US MISS THESE ALL WHEN STAYING ABROAD.................. AND ALSO WE ARE MUCH TALKATIVE WHEN MET WITH ANOTHER INDIAN.ALSO WE ARE SYMPATHETIC AND HENCE COULD BE FOOLED EASILY BY SUCH AN ACTION... don't think that Indians are dishonest its the circumstances which make them so......... I BELIEVE THAT THE CULTURE OF INDIANS WAS SOME THING GREAT .. TOUCHING INSIDE HEARTS...THE CULTURE WHICH INCLUDED SEVERAL SECRETS WHICH ARE NOW REVELING BY SCIENTISTS THROUGH SEVERAL IMPROVED MODERN TECHNIQUES.... NOW IF YOU WANT TO KNOW ABOUT ITS MEDICAL OR HERBAL BACKGROUND VISIT KOTAKKAL ARYA VIDYASALA WHICH CONSTITUTE MOST OF THE KOTAKKAL CITY IN MALAPPURAM,KERALA... THE INDIAN CULTURES CAN BE MORE EXPRESSED THROUGH ITS TOURIST SITES THAN THROUGH WRITINGS...THE OLD EPICS LIKE MAHABHARATA AND RAMAYANA SAYS MUCH ABOUT THE WORLD ONCE EXISTED IN INDIA ..IF YOU BELIEVE IT OR NOT......

Hi there and smile! People are the same all over the world. We meet bad indians and good indians, bad americans as well as good americans. It doesnt mean that when you meet 1 indian and treat you bad you will think that all indians are bad. That is not appropriate because indian people have heart that when they are treated bad yet they dont do anything wrong, im sure they get hurt. I am speaking like this but i am absolutely not an indian person. I am asian and i encounter bad and good indians as well. I met ladies who are very strict at managing their business but they are so friendly when they are out of job. I also meet one manager of business and he really does take care of his employees and customers. If its not business related, i have one indian friend while i am in college and she is so good. Happy mylotting and smile always!

I've really enjoyed the friendly relationships I've had with Indians; both the ones that have moved to the U.S. and those that were born here. I used to work in a psychiatry office at a university and I met lots of them during that period. I'm not trying to pick on the stereotype that Indians are all doctors, that's just where we met. All the ones I encountered were Hindu, which as far as I can tell is a very peaceful and tolerant religion. They were all polite and business like. They thanked me for my meager secretarial work and really seemed greatful to me. I enjoyed having intelligent conversation with them. They were just all around great people to be around. The only negative I have is petty...because of the spices they use to cook I think they smell kind of funny, but I understand why and don't hold it against them. All in all I really love meeting new and different people. Variety is the spice of life!

Dan, Its really sad that you chose to generalize Indians as being dishonest, even though you say that it is with some of your business associates. This is true with all classes of society. Do you mean to say that there are no cheats in China? Indians lead a democratic life which is supportive of freedom of speech, action,and thoughts, and if some do take undue advantage of this, I don't see justification in a nation being blamed. I'm an Indian and am proud to say so, but that doesn't mean that I don't respect others. I do, and I am here only to enhance my circle of friends which include people of all nationalities.If you seek to make friends here, you should visit the country and see for yourself the hospitable attitude of the local people. It will change your mindset for sure.

Hi friend DanielTan... I am happy that you want to know about us(Indians). But I apologies for the businessman from India who was dishonest with you. In business not only Indians generally all humans are excited at some point and be dishonest. Since we are neighboring countries and very old human civilization we have to know about each other. We still stand in a high position among all other countries because of the hospitality and culture of our own. Once you visit India you won't feel disliking about us... Will you........?
