Singaporean Andy has assessed India well as he has been living in India for long. The West and East mainstream media puts down India all the time. Why do these media pull down India and not report anything that's good in India.
That is our fault because we don't counter negative narratives yet....we have mindset that LET IT Go....We need to learn to shut people faces and our media needs to come out of sensational news and work on International standards.
If BBC, DW or CNN want to make a documentary on Hinduism, there might be a Hindu intellectual from Mauritius who would be pro LGBT, pro Diversity and Proud Hindu. They would not interview him because they would feel that he doesn't have critical thinking towards Hinduism. They would only contact those intellectuals who hate Hindus and view Hinduism critically. Then a documentary gets made which is anti Hindu and slanders Hinduism. Indians get irritated and they hammer these media outlets. So these journalists then tell Hindus that they must allow dissent and promote critical thinking if they believe their religion to be progressive. By calling them out for slandering Hinduism these media outlets call Hindus fascist.

Agreed to all his point except people order a lot of items in restaurant and then run away. I have never ever seen that in a restaurant. It might have happened in some isolated case but it's never ever a regular sight. Regarding paying in advance he might be suggesting quick service restaurant or road side open restaurants, there for sure u need to pay in advance and take ur food or else anyone can just leave without paying. I am sure no where in the world also in Mac D or KFC they would give u stuff before paying. You need to pay at counter and then you get the food. Thats for operational efficiency ....

It's a misconception, perpetuated by the West and even by some Indians, that development is defined solely by airports, shopping malls, and highways. India's government have tirelessly kept inflation low while strategically developing the nation. We've faced challenges like power shortages and heavy oil imports during our development. In India, people can live resiliently despite economic challenges; low inflation boosts our competitiveness as low-cost producers. Our true strength lies not just in production, but in our rich human resources, agriculture, and diverse culture-a holistic view of development that goes beyond infrastructure.
@@Infinitysre South India is generally a safer destination for foreign travelers. Given India's diverse cultures and regions, it's wise to travel with Indian friends when venturing beyond city limits to avoid potential deceivers.

Lim is very well integrated in India it seems he is very knowledgeable about India, appreciate his efforts 🙏🏼 Edit: I am not sure about the advance payment in restaurants, maybe it is not here in Maharashtra, where I live.
Exactly, even I was a bit surprised about it. I know a place in Alibaug where we pay first, but that's because they usually offer the entire spread like whatever they have prepared for the meal and then there's less hassle later on. Plus, we're on good terms with the owner (she's a very cool old lady) But I have never experienced pay first eat later in Mumbai. You can opt for it if you are in a hurry or something I suppose, but I don't think there are many places that do this. Unless you're talking about tea stalls or juice stalls or something.

They should educate the poor about family planning. There are too many poor kids on the street. Otherwise India has all the resources to be a rich country
Asking about family that is "How is your mom/dad/son/wife/daughter?" is must in India when we meet some relatives/known person. As an introvert I don't have the habit of asking those personal questions to anyone.But my mom always scold me"Why didn't you asked about his family?That is not good...What he will think about you?You should ask about their family members what are they doing" etc etc. I think Indian people don't consider it as invading privacy of others.I think Indians think about this as showing your love towards other person.

Not really. Most Indians live a middle to upper class life especially in developed places like Mumbai nd Delhi where jobs are more available. Ppl are also veru educated hence the affordable and good healthcare system. It may not be the best but it's defininately better than other healthcares e.g UK. If all Indians were poor then we wouldn't have such a good stock market for investments. Again better than the UK. Most Indians have more than enough money but just don't show it. It's a cultural thing.
In India we are very family oriented so its a kind of a thing to ask about the welfare of family and friends . You can talk to anyone in India who knows English and immidiately they will be friends but yes talking to a women or females its a little chalklanging ,indian males also have to be careful while talking to females .
that's why we have the higher rate of rapes in our society 😏, that's why we have the higher rates of depression problems in our society. that's why we have the most number of students who do suicide, that's why we have the higher number of domestic violence and that's why we have a dowry thing in our society and that's why we have the less ratio of males and females in our society, because of society respects females so much that they kill her in the womb.. so do I need to tell anything more how much we are family oriented society???😏. You bloody brats, who are living in top tier cities and thinking the whole India is like that 🙄

First time I've come across a foreigner who truly understands India. No surprise that he's not a westerner!
IDK,....I wasn't surprised by what they talked about at all. India may not be so misunderstood as you're imagining at least as far as a Canadian near Toronto.
Are you guys serious??? Do you really think India is just about Gurgaon, Bangalore, or Mumbai??? You need to see the real India. The guy talking clearly hasn't been to the places where most Indians actually live - places like where I live. Please stop spreading misinformation.
Let's break it down: only around 30% of Indian families are considered middle class. This group's income ranges from about 2 to 8 lakhs per year. Are you telling me that someone earning just 2 lakhs a year, or about 17,000 rupees a month, is middle class? That's absurd! In reality, around 69.7% of Indians earn less than 17,000 rupees a month, and many of them have families. Can you imagine trying to support a family and live a decent life on 17,000 a month? It's heartbreaking!
Do you seriously think India is a wealthy, amazing country based on those stats?
Before making such claims, come to India and see the real data. Stop spreading false information and covering up India's problems. If you keep doing that, our beloved country will never improve, and neither will the lives of our people!

1. Almost all the wealth in India was consolidated in the hands of some 655 families. It was an oligarchy.
2. Indians didn’t record there history, it was written by the British
3. Indian middle class was created by the British.
Not really doing that either. It's just maintaining what it thinks is its past, but turns out is actually the past that the British left them.

Singaporean Andy has assessed India well as he has been living in India for long.
The West and East mainstream media puts down India all the time. Why do these media pull down India and not report anything that's good in India.
That is our fault because we don't counter negative narratives yet....we have mindset that LET IT Go....We need to learn to shut people faces and our media needs to come out of sensational news and work on International standards.
If BBC, DW or CNN want to make a documentary on Hinduism, there might be a Hindu intellectual from Mauritius who would be pro LGBT, pro Diversity and Proud Hindu.
They would not interview him because they would feel that he doesn't have critical thinking towards Hinduism.
They would only contact those intellectuals who hate Hindus and view Hinduism critically.
Then a documentary gets made which is anti Hindu and slanders Hinduism. Indians get irritated and they hammer these media outlets.
So these journalists then tell Hindus that they must allow dissent and promote critical thinking if they believe their religion to be progressive.
By calling them out for slandering Hinduism these media outlets call Hindus fascist.

The speaker is very knowledgeable about our country despite his foreign origin. Good interaction.
From the 1st century CE to the start of British colonization in India in the 17th century, India's GDP varied between 25% and 35% of the world's total GDP, more than all of Europe combined. It dropped to 2% by the time Britain departed India in 1947.
Agreed to all his point except people order a lot of items in restaurant and then run away. I have never ever seen that in a restaurant. It might have happened in some isolated case but it's never ever a regular sight. Regarding paying in advance he might be suggesting quick service restaurant or road side open restaurants, there for sure u need to pay in advance and take ur food or else anyone can just leave without paying. I am sure no where in the world also in Mac D or KFC they would give u stuff before paying. You need to pay at counter and then you get the food. Thats for operational efficiency ....

It's a misconception, perpetuated by the West and even by some Indians, that development is defined solely by airports, shopping malls, and highways. India's government have tirelessly kept inflation low while strategically developing the nation. We've faced challenges like power shortages and heavy oil imports during our development. In India, people can live resiliently despite economic challenges; low inflation boosts our competitiveness as low-cost producers. Our true strength lies not just in production, but in our rich human resources, agriculture, and diverse culture-a holistic view of development that goes beyond infrastructure.

Edit: I am not sure about the advance payment in restaurants, maybe it is not here in Maharashtra, where I live.
Exactly, even I was a bit surprised about it. I know a place in Alibaug where we pay first, but that's because they usually offer the entire spread like whatever they have prepared for the meal and then there's less hassle later on. Plus, we're on good terms with the owner (she's a very cool old lady)
But I have never experienced pay first eat later in Mumbai. You can opt for it if you are in a hurry or something I suppose, but I don't think there are many places that do this. Unless you're talking about tea stalls or juice stalls or something.

You can come anytime. The only thing to worry about - In the last few years, we experience heat waves in summers. We just experienced this year's heat wave two weeks ago. Daytime temperature exceeded 50 degrees Celsius
@@AbhishekSanyalTGV yes Delhi seemed to suffer really bad
Gurgaon is a nice place to settle in India. Its peaceful when compared to other big cities of India like Mumbai, Bangalore, Delhi etc. But in the summers, heat waves are brutal. So yeah apart from this, it's a nice place with good community.
@@Pain-zd5uo lol .... How far is Delhi from Gurgaon ? How safe is Gurgaon compared to Delhi ? Its the same place literally.
@@KevinLearAdventures
just move to some hill station (like Kangra, Shimla) during summer, and come back in Aug. You will be fine
His statement about new government (modi government) is a slap to liberals
Correct 😅😅
his knowledge is from tourist view it he has live here and do job then he will cry and go back to his country and get job and bad condition of education system
@@Rohittour33 fr man he is owning a company and living in India to expand business in India he has more wide perspective than your 9-5 JOB 🤣
He also claims that our system is not working good in terms of money and justice bcs all are corrupt people are sitting over there
@@Fayezakureshiyeahhh thats mainly means the people with government jobs not specifically the ministers ofc there are ministers corrupted but the vision of main leaders of running government has it will still help india keep growing faster.
i get to realise so many things about my own country Bharat through his words, he got it so right with open minds and heart, such a great explanation and expression about Bharat. good job!!! so wholesome
This guy can be the spokesperson for Incredible India. Nicely laid down the points.
He mis-stated the fact wrt debt, companies delay payments but i don't think people order food in restaurants and then run away without paying the bill, I have been to many restaurants in mumbai, delhi and bangalore never seen such a case once. you can find a few outlier cases; but not paying bills isn't common in india.
True. Only western fast food restaurant ask for advance payment. Even the panipuri guy on roadside takes oayment after you've eaten.
@@catcat63527 somewhat, what he said is true.
agree... he just have seen one or two cases...and assumed india to be like this....bharat wo desh hain jaha kisi ko dard hota hain to aasu hamare aankh se nikalta hain....
Are you guys serious??? Do you really think India is just about Gurgaon, Bangalore, or Mumbai??? You need to see the real India. The guy talking clearly hasn't been to the places where most Indians actually live - places like where I live. Please stop spreading misinformation.
Let's break it down: only around 30% of Indian families are considered middle class. This group's income ranges from about 2 to 8 lakhs per year. Are you telling me that someone earning just 2 lakhs a year, or about 17,000 rupees a month, is middle class? That's absurd! In reality, around 69.7% of Indians earn less than 17,000 rupees a month, and many of them have families. Can you imagine trying to support a family and live a decent life on 17,000 a month? It's heartbreaking!
Do you seriously think India is a wealthy, amazing country based on those stats?
Before making such claims, come to India and see the real data. Stop spreading false information and covering up India's problems. If you keep doing that, our beloved country will never improve, and neither will the lives of our people!
@@ManagementGuywhat stats are those and from where
Andy Lim a Singaporean knows more about India than Rahul Gandhi. Respect.
True
Right 👍✅
Lmao true
Yes you right.... Rahul Gandhi don't know everything... He is normal person

Being casual towards to people makes them relax and let's them enjoy the moment makes them feel like they're in home
There is one old saying in India: DO NOT THROW A STONE ON SOMEONE HOUSE, WHEN YOU OWN HOUSE MADE UP OF GLASS.
Let me highlight some western realities: CRIME RATE IS HIGH; CASES OF PSYCHOPATHS ARE HIGH; NOT FRIENDLY AT ALL; DRUG MENANCE IS HIGH; DIVISION OF SOCIETY IS HIGH; ZERO BASIC MORALITY WHERE BULLYING CHILDREN IS COMMON LIKE COMMON FLU.
hugggggh: you name negative thing, you'll find this in ALL WESTERN countries.
Yet all the highly talented people of India flock the west. Why? No opportunity. Most of the culturally 'proud' Sanghis will jump at the chance of having a green card in the US.
@@kcmuanpuia oh that's becoz your declining population is not skilled enough to get the placement in companies which needs HIGHLY QUALIFIED BRAINS (which you westerner lacks somewhere I presume), which they fulfill from ASIAN MINDS (India to be specifically). Its a charity you always owe to us, but anyways YOU'RE WELCOME.
And I'm not sanghi, I do not support the ideology of the group you're referring to, I do not owe you this justification but I hope my one line justification will broaden your westernised slave mindset, hope it help.
@@kcmuanpuia
NOT TRUE for all.
I myself got 2 chances to go, one time I came back within 2 months and second time didn't go at all.
It's hyped, and money is similar on PPP terms.
Plus no social network, every person lives on his own. It seems unfamiliar.
I think one cause is caste based reservation system
Current government knows its bad consequences and wants to.uproot it, but those who are getting this reservation are greedy. And talented youth keeps going out of country due to huge amount of money, efforts and luck he needs to invest to get the same benefit as the lower caste people get easily hassle-free
So, obviously
@@Iamfire__13 no reservation deep subjects if you find the data you'll find there is still lack of representation of sc/st/obc in various posts, higher institutions. It is based on historical injustice to bring equity, which is achieved but still lacking.
He is right you cannot judge without getting your facts straight an educating yourself👍
I am truly fascinated by learning abt countries and religion and I've just finished with Japan and its culture and I am going to move on and learn abt India and hinduism
People like you are rare. I wish you the very best for your research on India 🙏
he said india developed very rapidly in last 10 years new government works good, now official he will be called Bhakt by Modi haters🤣
Ise to development khata hai😂😂

I don’t understand people who support congress. Are you really that dumb and ignorant to support such a party? They are the really blind bhakt.

Thanks 🙏 BRO.....for positive expressions on India'
Thank you Brother 👏🙏🏻😍 Love from India 🇮🇳☝🏻
this guy explained it so clearly abt future of India ❣
Target Audience: foreign countries
Real audience: Indians
I love ur videos this one I live in India for some time each year delhi based and I know north and south India well it’s also a v poor country there are people struggling with poverty in large numbers this is always a side to India keep making videos they are good 🙌
Since when the INDIA is poor, they are some of the richest country since ancient time.
Since the British looted our last penny.
but indian peoples where poor in the medieval time, but kings and elites were rich
But still you shit on the streets lol
You cant dry your clothes in yesterdays sunshine
@@abracadabra7550 good joke😂
India has come a long way. Keep reaching new heights.
Still 100 yrs behind
Andy Lim is surprisingly quite updated and stated all the facts correctly. But I'm sure no one runs away, without paying, from a restaurant after having a meal - didn't know where he got this from ? Some restaurants have a token sys where we have to pay first - this is usually a self-service eating joints.
He explained india so well, all the positives and drawbacks..worst thing in india is legal system and rural development.
Today india not Rich and not develop but we Indian try our best to make our India become a Rich and clean and powerful 😢🙏🙏
Typical of Singaporeans, we don’t talk bad of another race or nation! Always positive, lah!

I'm from India and when i see your video really I'm glad to see about your positive opinion about India❤
India is all about culture and family. We do respect people and families. We have best hospitality. We do see God in every human being. That's the one reason we ask about family.

This guy is not properly knowledgeable... India did invade goa and India did invade the northeast Territories of the country like Assam which is still fighting for its own freedom. A foreign knows a little about India than an Indian himself.
No religion?
@@livinghope1561 Arey oh Idiot Bhai. They are talking about family culture, why you are taking about Invading. India never invaded any country. Goa is invaded by Portuguese. Retained by India.
@@livinghope1561
Goa was always part of the Bharatiya civilization. Goa was liberated from the barbaric portuguese control.
To ask about family members is kinda good gesture in our culture. Because family matters a lot here. It's kind of " I wish everything is ok in your family" thing
But it's weird and sometimes offensive in some countries. That people never be able to understand that why a random person is showing concern about my family. Is he/she trying to interfere in my personal life? 🤔
That's nothing but a cultural differences that can easily mislead a person. That's it.
This person knows more about our country than our fellow citizens. 😅😅😅
We discovered zero, we discovered decimal, without which calculations are impossible.The credit for the discovery of planets goes to Kepler, but thousands of years before that, the nine planets were described in our mantras. Our divine language, Sanskrit, is the most ancient. I don't know what happened in the intervening period that we became so backward, cowardly and bad. To recover we will have to recognize our culture, history and civilization. Western media and Mughals have caused a lot of harm to us.
India should work on population. We need population check and quality education. Quality transport. Quality roads
Only population of certain religion.
@@ShantiNaga-f7k Agreed the great donkey riders are breeding like rabbits.
Come to India and then reply india is a great before and now also
They should educate the poor about family planning. There are too many poor kids on the street. Otherwise India has all the resources to be a rich country

Asking about family that is "How is your mom/dad/son/wife/daughter?" is must in India when we meet some relatives/known person.
As an introvert I don't have the habit of asking those personal questions to anyone.But my mom always scold me"Why didn't you asked about his family?That is not good...What he will think about you?You should ask about their family members what are they doing" etc etc.
I think Indian people don't consider it as invading privacy of others.I think Indians think about this as showing your love towards other person.
My mom even tells me that people will consider me arrogent if didn't ask about others family.
He speaks better than any advocate for India ❤. HE❤my India. True picture.

Thats shows how Indians are passionate about their country. And somehow its good, because its the opposite what they have been doing all these years. So should we stop them or complain..??
Cry about it😂
Why do you have a problem with?
so you want them to hate india? i dont see the problem here
😂😂😂😂
Best expressions gentleman, You have studied us very well.
So true even in the Philippines. The Western media portrayed other countries so poor and bad, but it isn't like that. In fact, it looks nicer and there are so much more compared to 1st world. They also thought people are uneducated but people are more educated in Asia. Anyway the economy needs to go back to equilibrium and countries like India, Philippines, Africa and others will progressing. The business is really there
Bro he is So Indian.... he Knew exactly what we as an Indian do... think Great that people are now understanding Indians... and their lovely nature.
All foreigners want indian views to be famous because of our population.
Great analysis of India ❤
Surprising how one man's experience in one city defines a country's nature,culture,social life etc
"India is not poor anymore"........Anymore???? India was NEVER poor!!
Ma'am I appreciate the sentiment and understand it a bit but India's financial and economical condition in 60s and 70s was not well off. We were close to bankruptcy once and that image is steady fast in western's brains... We cannot deny the history (not that India is poor now)
@@Rohit_Kapgate Defining poverty is also not simple . Some bpl card holders have luxury cars . Rural people live modest life that doesn't mean they are poor . Indians by nature are not heavy spenders like people in the west . Most of us believe in savings and owning gold .
THAT;'S RIGHT. India is Wealthiest country that's why all the inventors came to India.
😂 you grew up in a city, also you're a woman, so your expenses would've been taken care of by the govt. So you have no idea what you're talking about. India is a poor country, look at the lives of those outside metro cities, you'd understand why

Yes India is not poor but INDIANS ARE.
Saying by a bhikaristani🤡
Like Brazil. We are the 8th economy of the world, but we have a lot of poverty
indians are not poor if our people earn less we have everything here cheap cost of maintaince is very cheap .... poverty was there in india 20 years ago but now here people are superrich
But Pakistan and Pakistanis both are poor which makes me surprised.
Not really. Most Indians live a middle to upper class life especially in developed places like Mumbai nd Delhi where jobs are more available. Ppl are also veru educated hence the affordable and good healthcare system. It may not be the best but it's defininately better than other healthcares e.g UK. If all Indians were poor then we wouldn't have such a good stock market for investments. Again better than the UK. Most Indians have more than enough money but just don't show it. It's a cultural thing.
In India we are very family oriented so its a kind of a thing to ask about the welfare of family and friends .
You can talk to anyone in India who knows English and immidiately they will be friends but yes talking to a women or females its a little chalklanging ,indian males also have to be careful while talking to females .
that's why we have the higher rate of rapes in our society 😏, that's why we have the higher rates of depression problems in our society. that's why we have the most number of students who do suicide, that's why we have the higher number of domestic violence and that's why we have a dowry thing in our society and that's why we have the less ratio of males and females in our society, because of society respects females so much that they kill her in the womb.. so do I need to tell anything more how much we are family oriented society???😏. You bloody brats, who are living in top tier cities and thinking the whole India is like that 🙄

Bro india is not poor from the beginning. The British empire stole 45 trillion dollars from India before this we call india the golden bird
