Sir john Posted September 21, 2010 Posted September 21, 2010 Just throwing it out there' date=' how many of you think it the CWG would have been better organised and more successful down south?[/quote'] i think,some work needed only. man have a look at cwg websites and photo of khel gaun.
asterix Posted September 21, 2010 Posted September 21, 2010 Just throwing it out there' date=' how many of you think it the CWG would have been better organised and more successful down south?[/quote'] I was just thinking about it, earlier. Hyderabad or Chennai or even Bengaluru. Corruption is everywhere. But I feel the work ethics are strongly adhered to down South. No offense but I have found the Delhiites (combination of people from Haryana, Punjab, Rajastha, UP etc.) deadly corrupt, zero work ethics and street smart. I've been to Delhi few times and really had very bad experience every time to the extent that I have decided to never ever visit Delhi in my life.

Even if was some other place, it would have been the same as after all it would be the one to organize. And Delhi was actually the best in terms of logistics and space.

I'm not blaming the general public. But I've the experience of travelling to various parts of India and getting work done by local officials, supervisors and workers (My company used to provide turnkey plants/projects and as a site engineer, I used to visit places for installation & commission and later for upgrades and support). So I know what I'm talking about.
Ram Posted September 21, 2010 Posted September 21, 2010 Daym, would this a world first, if the games are canceled so late? That'd be unbelievably embarrassing.

asterix Posted September 21, 2010 Posted September 21, 2010 But the point is how is that relevent to the CWG as you are describing some traits of the labors in your own opinion. It's pretty relevant. There is zero work ethics and accountability. It's actually a free for all. Try to think of the 'delays' in completeing the project in NCR in general and w.r.t CWG. It was bound to happen.
Ram Posted September 21, 2010 Posted September 21, 2010 We have had these warning articles in news organizations, both foreign and domestic, for months now. How could they still eff this up so badly?
SachDan Posted September 21, 2010 Posted September 21, 2010 One man who will be having a big laugh today is Manishankar Iyer, one of the staunchest critics of the CWG.
Clarke Posted September 21, 2010 Posted September 21, 2010 MMS, u better have answers, concrete ones. If your involvement could not get this done, who could ? I'm not sure of the southern states achieving the task on time. This was Delhi, the home of all big shot MPs, netas, Gandhis and the core of the govt. If it cannot be done under their eyes, i'm not sure what they're capable of. If there were an exam which could judge our citizens on common sense, ethics, impartiality & accountability then the bottom 2% must form our successive govts. It would have been thorough if it was being handled by some private sector giant. We need to look at our current governance and administration model. Isn't China better off with its communist party running the show, in what terms is our super corrupt administration any better ? I don't want a dictatorial regime running India but unless we start being ruthless about some matters, things will stay the same.
asterix Posted September 21, 2010 Posted September 21, 2010 Okay, the fiasco has now become a major news in UK on SKY TV and BBC. It's not looking good.
Rajiv Posted September 21, 2010 Posted September 21, 2010 ..and we are still proud of this, please stop this b4 someone gets killed.India is not capable of handling this
veer Posted September 21, 2010 Posted September 21, 2010 give it to modi and he will get it done.. govt can't handle this, only private companies can..
yoda Posted September 21, 2010 Posted September 21, 2010 Just throwing it out there' date=' how many of you think it the CWG would have been better organised and more successful down south?[/quote'] You kidding me? We (Southies) are equally capable of being corrupt, lazy, lacking in common sense, self pride, ..... you name it. These are all common traits which bind us as a nation. May be if the guys who built the Hyderabad Airport were given this job, they could have done it well. If any of our DMK folks had any ungli in this, results would be strikingly similar I am afraid.
veer Posted September 21, 2010 Posted September 21, 2010 :yay: arre bolne main aur karne main farak he..
Guest Gunner Posted September 21, 2010 Posted September 21, 2010 Ok, so the common consensus is that whichever state government in India had been given the project the result would have been the same disaster. That's such a pity.
beetle Posted September 21, 2010 Posted September 21, 2010 I hope the games are suspended and a few people hung in public.They used up thousands of crores to shame the country! This state was when they knew people were coming to sheck....one can just imagine what te state is usually.
Clarke Posted September 21, 2010 Posted September 21, 2010 Leave it to the government and those slimey small time contractors and they'll **** it up royally everytime. The latest headline - 'Stray dog found sleeping on bed meant for athlete.' :hysterical: it's a village where man is supposedly closer to nature .. this was way too close though :haha:
Aaku Posted September 21, 2010 Posted September 21, 2010 I'd be awesome if we pull it off plzzplzplzpzlzplpzzz :((
