Ethnicity and achievement; why an Indian spaceship is orbiting the moon and not one from Nigeria
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 6 авг 2023
- India has a spaceship in orbit around the moon. It is interesting to speculate as to why such a feat is unlikely to be accomplished by any nation in Africa or the Caribbean.
unfortunately everyone who spends significant time around africans will come to the same conclusions
Yep. We all know the answer to the question Mr. Webb poses in the title to this video.
I do, what conclusions do you have?
Spent long periods in Africa seen much the same myself.

An anecdote from my work days, one of my colleagues was a Ugandan Asian, one of those booted out of the country by Idi Amin, when asked about the parlous state of Africa his reply was immediate and brutal, Africans are lazy and bone idle, want all the good stuff but aren't prepared to work for it, and all too ready to play the victim for their own shortcomings, i can only conclude that the reason for that is genetic, there's no other explanation.
I live in the Caribbean. Last week, Monday and Tuesday were bank holidays, this week, today is a bank holiday. There are so many more throughout the year, to celebrate some past prime minister's passing for example. There's always an excuse to 'lime' under a tree, rather than work to make your country a success. Added to which, the country is run by criminals, as I suppose, are most.
A plausible reason however I've lived in the ASEAN subcontinent. I can assure you that there is vast corruption there as well with money going 'missing'. Being Governed and Policed by Criminals is not enough to hold you back with innovation and technological achievement. However, being intellectually compromised is and this is by far the most likely reason when it comes to Africa.
Wakanda hid itself and its the best example of what would have happened if us Europeans hadn't popped over
yep Nigerians also have an inferiority complex they would rather build up england tech sector than their own they have accolades but they dont bring that back to their country I am always running into the eternal student from nigeria they are a weird lot they have a lot of pride but what messes them up is having too many muslims. India doenst play that shit look at muslim pakistan its a mess no moon orbit the kids are beaten into learning a religious book and not engineering. I wouldnt put india on a pedestal because they cant seem to get hygiene and seweage under control and they have a billion people and its the high caste ones that are doing the do indians in fiji and guyana arent sending shit to the moon.

We in the UK also have a space program, we also welcome up to 1000 people a day to enter the illegally, we also have over 6000 ex service personnel living on the streets.
More like a space problem. 😊

Where did you get the 6000 figure from ?
Europeans are perfectly capable of orbiting the moon. It's those who run the show who are the odd ones out, fucking things up for us. And our own naivete. But there's plenty of unintelligent Indians in India. Why do people think they have to resort to online scamming. Doh.
And why do we send foreign aid to India?
Why indeed 🤦♂️
Because we're a "overseas aid superpower" - that's a quote from some Con politician, Hunt perhaps. They really think that's a 'thing'. Soft-power. Soft as shit.
And china!!!
We don't need your aid. Your aid is peanuts for us
@nostradam7036 clown
And we still send them Foreign Aid? £2.5 billion since 2015, beyond belief really. I wonder if it is Indian tech or has been copied like the Chinese?
China too.
Yes apparently. A huge amount. Sunak wont stop that anytime soon. But our retirees need to get jobs like deliveroo to supplement their terrible pensions
1 trillion equals to 1000 billions .British empire loo*ted 45 trillion from India.
David Cameron was the chief insistor on that.
Uk stoped giving aid to india after 2015, because in 2011 india declared they don't need aid. 2.5 billion figure is actually busines investment of uk into private Indian companies and NGOs to push british agenda in india. And you gives over estimate tiny tiny aid it like giving a elephant a peanut. Indian economy both nominal and ppp is bigger than uk. And Indian companies actually invest 25billion pounds in uk.

Very true…if the thing makes money fine. But if this is preventing infrastructure development in India where money can actually be made then it is another white elephant

Don't think the criticism of Britain's history in India is quite fair, a tiny number of British were only able to take over because the Moghul (muslim) emperors were losing power and the Hindus were fighting back, the subcontinent was divided. The British taking over prevented a nasty civil war, only problem was that it immediately broke out again as the British withdrew.
It's their country, they do what they want even if that means fight each other!!
Correct.
Britain administered about 40% of India for just 90 Years.
1857-1947.
So you are going to turn a blind eye to the atrocities unleashed out to us? I am all for forgetting the past and learning from our mistakes, moving ahead, but we lost 40 trillions dollars in 250 years! Even if there was a civil war, it would have been our business, invading a sovereign nation cannot be justified.
@@mahathivenkatraman4892 Totally agree. The Brits were only in India to plunder their resources and to line their pockets!!
@mahathivenkatraman4892 The world economy in total is about 80 trillion in US. So are you saying that the rest of the world has no economy.
Oh, wait 1947 right. The world had a total economy of 9.25 trillion complete, so how does the calculation amount to 40 trillion ?
If the economy of India was truly that awesome a powerhouse it really shouldn't have lost a to country with a couple of boats and a few cannons.
I say this as a mixed race person with slight bit of indian. The biggest problem with Indians I see is emotions, emotions and emotions 24/7 & non-stop crying, bitching, whinning about every dam thing.

I would slightly disagree.. The British were a force of good. They gave order to chaos.
The British were not a force for good imo. They stole India's resources, built railroads and ports to ship the stolen goods to be traded elsewhere making many British people wealthy. One only has to read up about the East India Company, an English business that even had its own army to protect it against the Indian people. Everything the British did in India was for money, nothing else.
@@PeterPeteThe East Indian private armies protected Indians from Indians, India was only united because of British Colonialism, have a look at the population explosion in India because of British Colonialism, that cannot happen unless a society is stable and prosperous.
@@georgehetty7857 Sorry, i would disagree because there would have been Indian people who didn't want the British there. The East India Company army protected their interests in India. No other reason. If you think the Indians welcomed the British why did they want and gain independence?
Nice try to justify the British presence in India but the Brits were only there for wealth; to steal the country's wealth and resources.
Agreed.
Ofcourse it came at the behest of a bayonet first
Colonialism as unpleasant as it was, moved these countries on generations. However motivation is much higher in some countries than others 😉
Very diplomatic. 😉
Colonialism was actually very pleasant. Without it other races can't have the nations they have today, and they can't build or run them either, so they need the white man to help them.
Actually with India it had less affect on the established order and social mobility . The Indian concept that it is your previous lives make you suffer and be poor in this life doesn't help!
Motivation … what about IQ?
One man's colonialism is another man's diversity.

@@brucewayne5672 you sound like a self-hating fool desperate for white love and acceptance.
The key it NOT ethnicity but culture. Islam is now incompatible with progress, that’s why India can and Pakistan can’t. Nigeria is plagued with Islamism in the north and it’s spreading. Gabon is ethnically African but richer than Pakistan (gdp per capita), they have (partially) adopted western culture and values.
You nailed it. It’s good to know there are people out there who know what’s actually going on.
The vast majority of Indians and Pakistanis are NOT the same race and ethnicity. Less than 2% of Indians are racially/ethnically similar to about 58% of Pakistanis.
@@T-Terminator I know, all I’m saying is that culture matters in the end not ethnicity (when it comes to progress and development)
That's correct. Not that Hinduism is much better, though. Their caste system is dreadful.
No it's IQ
And people that can't afford pants over there are mooning the space program.
Yes. Numbers. Simple numbers. 1.4 billion. That is 1/5th of humanity.
And there's so much poverty if you can afford to be 1/5th of a human you're doing very well.
the difference between the outcomes of pakistani (muslims) and indian (hindu/sikh) brits are also very astounding. it seems islam isn’t very compatible with modern civilisation. inbreeding is likely the cause for a lot of these problems, especially in pakistanis. but even the scientific output of gulf countries is measly compared to india, even though they are significantly richer and have more resources. i can’t imagine population size controls for all of this
I would also like point out astonishing difference in terms of Education between Atheist Pakistanis and Muslim Pakistanis.
There are Secular Pakistanis i have met and everyone of them have had at least bachelor degree and others had masters.
The same goes for Secular/Atheist Indians.

I visited India earlier in the year. It is not poor. There is elements of poverty, without doubt. Some elements of their infrastructure does need improvement. However there is no doubt it is a thriving country. Many of the University campuses are very impressive There is clearly a strong emphasis on education. One only needs to look at the strong lineage of Indian culture and learning. It is unbroken over thousands of years. Whatever damage the British did has been forgotten and they don't have a post-colonial hangover that they can use as an excuse for things going wrong. Also it feels safe. You do hear horror stories but in truth bad things happen everywhere. That rocket cost GBP58mil. which is impressive.

@@visorcover - I chose my words carefully - "is indicated by how Africa is yet to farm-": it's largely I think, evolution: neuro-, cultural. There is farming in traditional African cultures, but it's so subsistence that it's supplemental to running & jumping for breakfast & doesn't provide the benefit of spare time for skills or economy, which is how human societies progress. They've basically skipped from spears to smart-phones & AK's.

@@gitfoad8032 Yep sorry for my flippant remark but I agree. I guess when you have little incentive because foreign aid will sort it and have so much corruption, no one can flourish and can use the excuse of 'cos of colonialism', its hardly surprising.
One good thing about quite a few African nations is they are eschewing Western 'values' as seen by various African leaders telling Western leaders to 'fuck off' when being brow beaten about such things as LGBT etc. Some current Western nations still think they can dictate (ironically, all liberal, left leaning nations). Quite a few African nations are distancing themselves for the dollar too. Maybe they can see the impeding implosion the West has created for itself?

The real question is WHY is the UK government borrowing huge amounts of money in the name of the British people in order to give it to Indian to fund their Space Programme prestige project?
Foreign Aid to India jumped by 70% recently, coinciding with a massive increase in spending by India on it's Space Project - so we are funding it with UK taxpayers money.
Sheer hypocrisy and fiscal madness!
Stop paying taxes.all we can do.
You have it the wrong way around, the British FCDO's 70% increase in foreign aid to India came (less than a week) after India's rocket launch.
India never asked for any kind of aid from anybody, that tiny little island gives those peanuts of so called aid to india out of its own will . It’s actually really funny considering india gives out more aid to other countries than it receives from other countries.

"Since the dawn of history the black man has owned the continent of Africa, rich beyond the dream of poet’s fancy, crunching acres of diamonds beneath his bare black feet. Yet he never picked one up from the dust until a white man showed to him its glittering light.
His land swarmed with powerful and docile animals, yet he never dreamed a harness, cart, or sled. A hunter by necessity, he never made an axe, spear, or arrowhead worth preserving beyond the moment of its use. He lived as an ox, content to graze for an hour.
In a land of stone and timber he never sawed a foot of lumber, carved a block, or built a house save of broken sticks and mud.
With league on league of ocean strand and miles of inland seas, for four thousand years he watched their surface ripple under the wind, heard the thunder of the surf on his beach, the howl of the storm over his head, gazed on the dim blue horizon calling him to worlds that lie beyond, and yet he never dreamed a sail.”

I had a friend that served in the Army in India in the 1930’s and he told me that as much as we might have took spices and such like from India,Britain had established an infrastructure , they had put in railways,telegraphs, roads,schools there were bridges and locomotives built in Glasgow and Sheffield and shipped and built there, the old men had spectacles, unfortunately if you listen to Indian media outlets today it’s almost Monty Pythonesque ………what did the British ever do for us ?
India rebuilt itself, and whatever you may say about the Soviet Union, it was them that contributed to almost all the major achievements of India and not the British. The IITs are all built on Soviet lines, so was the space programme, the nuclear programme, the missile Defence program, the IT framework, the heavy industries, the refineries, the green revolution, embankments and canal systems, the steel mills I can go on, Britain had almost all those tech but never shared any with India but the Soviet Union shared them (FYI look at any rocket launch of India and old Soviet rockets). Only after the 1990 crisis of soviet union collapse did India start shifting towards the west. There is a reason why India still supports Russia.
You believe what you want, all they done was build on the foundations the British laid , probably the best one being democracy something they never could get off of Russia and something the Russian people will never get themselves 🇬🇧
@@user-vy5uy9fo8pLmao India was neutral during cold war . It neither sided with soviets nor americans. And India has developed its space and nuclear program from scratch on its own indigenously. At least do some research before commenting on the internet. Also India has been producing Steel much before Soviet Union even existed. Tata Steel , India’s largest steel making company was founded in 1907.
India was plagued with problems all thanks to British. These railways and ports served as tools of oppression when most of it were used to extract resources out of India. Telegraph, Roads and schools were meant to only serve the British class and their loyal wealthy Indian elite to subjugate the masses and prevent any crucial information from getting to prevent uprisings and rebellions. Saying Britain contributed to India is like saying KFC supports chicken lives.
School, roads, bridges and locomotive were built with the financial help of affluent local Maharajas of India and were limited to tiny coastal lands.

India, like China, achieved because of the Education available from the West. Indian and China willingly and eagerly earned STEM degrees, Nigeria too went for the Education but they went into Arts, Philosophies and Politics. Notice the difference.
PS: To this day, Westerners are still going to African countries and teaching people how to dig wells, despite how often this happens, they STILL haven't learned how to do it themselves.
Africans know how to dig wells ,I have been Nigeria and Ghana .The difference between India and most African countries is they are more organized and have better leadership.This space program is just a vanity project and India has not even reached Iranian and even South American levels of development,and will probably take another decade .You can argue where’s Irelands ,and Brazils space program.
@@BruhYeetus-sm6zd they play a very small part in it .
@@BruhYeetus-sm6zd well irish folk are still the best in Europe in my irrelevant Pakistani-American opinion lol
But they can ,but the Irish are wise ,they will rather have something tangible than waste their money on vanity projects .
India created their own education system apart from the west. The IITs.
Millions in funding still going to India. We can't afford a space program
I wonder who the mugs are
India's FOREX reseve is $603.87Billion (July'23) compare that to UK's paltry $182.79Billion (Nov'22, most probably fake). To all the r@cist ret@rtds like you still talking about british foreign aid, its bloody investment in bullish Indian economy that Britain is betting to make PROFIT and most idiots calling it aid. By 2025 you'll know how deep recession UK will be in with your unreliable and corrupt BoE and gov systems.
@@HaleyChain-vw8rrDo they give out complimentary mugs?
Which is being sent to NGOs and shady organisations. We refused this in 2015 but the Brits still give us aid despite us not wanting it. They give it to us because they have nothing to offer. Other than jobs that the Brits themselves can't even do. Hence the mass migration.
However, I can agree that Sunak is an idiot and is not helping your country. I don't know how and why he became PM.
'It would take a rocket twice the size of the empire state building to reach the moon' ....Wernher Von Braun
@@BruhYeetus-sm6zd Unfortunately, nobody has been to the moon, and nobody has the capability of going anytime soon. We've never even put animals above low earth orbit. No organism has ever been sent beyond the Van Allen belts. The Russians claimed to send turtles around the moon in the 1960s, and claimed they survived. They never tried it again. We know the reason why.

Back in the late 50s/early 60s My thoughts were we would all eventually wind up coffee coloured with a yellow tinge, Ah, the wonder of youth. In my much later years I was asked to be a diversity coach in an international communications organisation. Looking back we had many ethnicities in our workplace and I didn't even think about it, they were just workmates.
My experience in this was to support the weaker members of our organisation, the shy and those who lacked confidence. The other area which became apparent at the time was regional differences. We had satellite earth stations in Madley and Goonhilly. Also being 'border folk between England and Wales I was aware of the 'Mostly' good humoured banter. Just to clear this up, after a recent DNA test I am roughly 40% English, 40% Welsh and 20% Scandinavian. Definitely a mongrel.
An interesting aside here, as a diversity coach I was, supposedly, trained by the 'Agency of Excellence.' a misnomer if ever I saw one. The lecturer thought Mugabe was great as a leader of Zimbabwe. Reality, he has overseen the destruction of his country from the richest nation in Africa to a basket case. Sadly South Africa is going the same way.
How much of this is racial intelligence and how much is culture is an open question (not going there, too many social media strikes). As always a vociferous minority latch on to everything and cause most of the current problems in society. The young in particular and also those looking for a cause for their own failure latch on to this (the race grifters). We now see it every day with the ones saying they are affected by slavery. It is a long time ago and they are the one who have most benefited by their ancestry.
It is no coincidence that certain ethnicities seem to lead the world in progress wile others lead the world in physical attributes, sport etc.
Reality of life, you can deal with your failures and learn from them or you can blame every one else for your failures and remain in the mire.
DNA tests can't tell your ancestors' nationality mix, and being of different nationalities doesn't make you a mongrel - we're all mongrels in terms of being a mix of the subgroups within our 'geographical' caucasoid race.
I can't understand this stupid opinion I keep reading where you say some ethnicities lead the world in progress and others in physical attributes and sport. If blacks dominated sport, why do North African teams qualify for World Cups and become Champions of Africa? Why is there no advantage for the national teams in Europe or South America that have lots of black players to choose from? By your logic, Japan and South Korea wouldn't stand a chance against black African teams in World Cups. And why have white boxers dominated the heavyweight division for so long?
@@basylpeterjonesAnd why have whites dominated powerlifting, strongman, arm wrestling, olympic weightlifting, triathlon, swimming etc. if blacks are superior in sport? What a stupid notion. The reality is that if one's specialized in area one is worse in another area. Gymnastics for example favors those with shorter limbs.
i feel i must pay lip service , wasn't it a black African who discovered the moon 🌚
If it's not already, it will be soon ;)
I always have heard “the first step to solving a problem is to admit there is a problem to begin with”. As long as Nigeria and other SSA countries aren’t going to acknowledge what is clearly THE missing quality, there still will be word games and self-congratulating among themselves for having an abundance of natural resources, an indomitable will, great athletic ability, etc etc. Pretty much everything but the most glaringly obvious requirement for significant technological advancement. Pink elephant and all that.
Given the abject poverty of some areas of India it is a puzzle they can spend so much money sending a spaceship to the moon. Perhaps foreign aid helped a bit.
1 trillion equals to 1000 billions .British empire loo*ted 45 trillion from India.
Foreign aid to India from Britain is mere peanuts. The population of Indians in Britain that own businesses and pump money out of Britain in Pound Sterling (right under the noses of the brainless unsuspecting white British population) and back to India for investment in the Indian economy and Indian businesses has been of greater benefit to India! 😉
You might think the questions are worth asking, Simon, but you know full well that asking such a thing is strictly verboten.
According to the Independent Commission for Aid Impact (ICAI), the UK gave a total of £2.3 billion in aid to India between 2016 and 2021. This includes £441 million in bilateral aid, £1 billion in investments through British International Investment (BII), £129 million in FCDO investments, and £749 million through multilateral channels such as the World Bank.
In 2022/23, the UK government is providing £33.4 million in aid cash to India. This is expected to rise to £57 million in 2024/25. The government has also committed to investing £1 billion in India through BII over the next five years.
Why ?
Put it on our Tab you can deduct it from the $ 45 trillion you looted from us.😁.
No need, you still owe us for all the infrastructure we built for you, as well as our legal and democratic systems we donated, and not forgetting the English language. All these enabled you to become the successful country you are now. All these assets are helped by the £billions we continue to send you and we even provide employment for many of your countrymen like Fishi Sunak and Sadiq Khanage to name just two. No need to pay us back though we did it all for ❤
😂😂😂😂😂😂
Imo any country with a space program doesn't qualify for international handouts on such a scale if any scale at all
@@deepakthirdreich i am sure yer phone scammers are well on the way to extracting by deceit yer supposed debt from the west.
Most Indians that I have met are very aware of how their country/ region is, and subsequently they know which side their bread is buttered on and they integrate whilst maintaining their cultural heritage.
Africans on the other hand are convinced they are very oppressed and the white man is desperate to keep them down. This might have been the case historically and most recently in America.
Here in the UK we have at least two generations that have no idea where they are really from or what it is like there today. Combine that with imported attitudes regarding revenge and discontent from the USA its no surprise this country is treated with such contempt
Yeah, India suffered so badly that they jumped years ahead of neighbouring countries. They still have a reprehensible class system.
And you have a old 👑
There'll be a corner shop there by tea time! Good for them! Resourceful India/ns. Bravo!

You could say the same thing about the UK. Why is an Indian spaceship orbiting the moon and not one from the UK.
I'm pretty sure that we launched a satellite into space over fifty years ago!
Because almost all British technological developments have been closed down or sold off by politicians.
The UK could have a viable Space Program, if it didn't divert over 60% of GDP on the Welfare State.
@johngallacher8847
For the same reason the Battle of Britain wasn't fought with jet power British planes. The Government didn't have the money to spare after the paid themselves and their mates.

How come the Engerlish have never landed on the Moon ?
Most of those involved would have been of a similar ancestry as the English.
Very important question. I think its mostly cultural to be honest. Blaming it on colonialism and race is a cop out. Low homicide rates in many sub Saharan countries and very high rates in some Central American countries for example, many are related to gangs and drugs.
African countries were backward and starving before European colonisation. Then under European rule they had lush farmland to feed the population, hospitals, railways, roads and a legal system. Now we're gone, Africa is backward and starving, even with a ton of foreign aid, which they never had before colonisation. Kind of says it all.
One word… culture!
Culture is downstream from biology.
What is that?
India may be have a large economy but has 1.2 billion people, smaller European countries like Denmark with only 5 million population have a far higher standard of living.
We are rebuilding after hundreds of years of turmoil, it takes time.
1 trillion equals to 1000 billions .British empire loo*ted 45 trillion from India.
They weren't invaded by muslims and European plunderers like India was. Indian multinational companies today own big chunks of Britain's engineering industries such as TATA which today owns 90% of Britain's steel industry as well as Jaguar and Land Rover.
An "Indian space ship" funded by aid money from us!
1 trillion equals to 1000 billions .British empire loo*ted 45 trillion from India.
Uk stoped giving aid to india after 2015 because Indian government won't accept it. The money uk give India after 2015 is not to government by investments for businesses who can benefit uk and to NGOs who care out british agenda.
And people of uk overestimate aid. It's like peanuts to any country won't help any country at all even in Africa that aid is to small to make any difference. India actually give aid to south asian and African countries itself.
Yeh, aid funded to Christian missionaries definitely made it possible for India to land on the moon😂.
Space travel is a twentieth century concern. The know-how is there and there’s not much to gain from duplicating past missions.
Yeah but if you can find the mineral composition of the moon and then find a way to mine it, I think we will be looking into the making of a truly interplanetary species that can survive anywhere. You ignore space at your own peril, because a century from now your descendants will be nowhere whereas the massive population of Asia with better technology will take over planets. You wont want to miss that ride trust me.
You're overthinking this.........someone heard there isn't a cornershop on the moon yet
Most people do not realise that India had advanced mathematics before Christ & also had one of the first astronomical observatories' in the 18th century. The Chinese invented gunpowder & paper before Europeans & also built the Great Wall. Trade in the form of the Silk Road flourished from those eastern areas & reached Rome via the Middle East....so it must come as no surprise that India & China are able to match western technology since they are now joined to the west via the internet.....I suggest that a visit to the British Museum for more info on the subject.....Meanwhile Africa...??
Want to guess what Country was the fifth nation to put a satellite into earth orbit, and then immediately cancelled its independent space program ?
Here is a clue ,the money saved was spent to design a car called allegro .
Well the fifth nation to put satellite in orbit was china , so whats your point?
“why is an indian spaceship circling the moon”
Because they can’t find a corner to open a shop?
because they can afford it with all the funding we send them

How come it's got worse since Britain left
By what standards?
@@Benjieboy247India is poorer per capita compared to the UK than what it was during the Empire.
@@mudra5114 check out graph which shows growth in India just after the 50's
40 years ago it would have been unthinkable for India to be launching rockets to the Moon. However, if you have a growing economy and a population of over a billion, as well as an amazingly cheap design, you can achieve a great deal.
Nigeria's space agency budget is around £10 million. About the same as India in the early 1980s. Give them 40 years and see how they get on.
Given the normal progression of Nigeria, in 40 years they will have built a rocket but won't be able to work out how to sell it to a gullible passer by. It'll be stood on bricks with 30,000 people living in it.
That's going to be some wait...
@@anthonydowney6069 like it was for India?
Remember it also took the US almost 25 years to get to the Moon - as the world's largest economy.
It's not about small or big population. India through out history contributed in fields of science, maths, alchemy, art, religion, philosophy. So it's not like india has bigger population so they can do it. By this logic indonesia which has massive population, industry and economy should also do same. Africa is unable to do space programme simply because African governments don't care, they don't invest in stem education and won't invest in space program.
@@roh-mj6em a big population means a large tax base. India has made plenty of contributions in theoretical science, but hasn't always had the finances to support big capital schemes. That has changed.
Nigeria is in a comparable position now to where India was 40 years ago. Whether it will succeed in creating a large scale space programme remains to be seen. But the seed has been planted.
To be honest though having India launching space craft is like putting the cart in front of the horse. Before they even consider a space program they should work on indoor plumbing and water/wastewater treatment. Just a thought.
reeks of jealousy, so how was your last space mission and who launched your last satellite and why is so desperation to sign FTA with India?
