Satish Mama in China








Dear All,

I reached Chongqing, China on 11th Jan’10 evening and got checked in Somerset . Every thing was pre-arranged nicely.

Somerset is an international chain of serviced residence. It is just like a five star hotel but at the same time it is a furnished residence with all modern facilities such as magnetic oven , all kitchen appliances, cutlary, fully automatic washing machine, refrigerator, microwave, large size LCD TV, DVD player, 24 hr cable as well as wi fi internet system, swimming pool, zym, dance hall, sauna rooms and what not. It is 55 storeyed building and i am at 21 st floor. All put togetter on rent of only Rs 1.5 Lakh per year.

Chongquing is one of the largest cities in world ( 3crores population) and is amazingly beautiful.. I have taken lot of videos which i will show when i reach india.

Actually we are not well informed about China. China has progressed so much on last twenty years that India will take at least hundred years to reach that level. I have not seen USA but saw EUROPE. There is no match. It looks very clear that Europe is only heritage whereas China is newly built modern city.

I saw Air Ports of KUNMING, CHONGQUING, CHANGSA which are not best of China but still they are at least 20 times bigger than our Mumbai airport. At any point of time not less than 50 flights are in scheduled display.

Hotels, roads, Metro railway , supper markets , malls all look amazingingly big and beautiful. People look good, courtseous and very well dressed all the time.

Language is a little problem. younger people know English a little.

Girls are having more employment than boys.

Most important and interesting thing is that work force is far younger than in India. More than 80% working persons are between 20 to 35 years. It seems older people have been forcibly retired. I have rarely found +50 person. people have reached to top management at around 40 years.

I am attaching some photos for idea.Check out photo of fried scorpio( Bicchu) & whole fish served to me in a dinner party.

    Hope you are enjoying the Chinese winter. Did you get a chance for Ski there? If you get some time out, do plan to check out the Badaling sector of the China wall...
