BANGALORE AIRPORT
CINEMA IN BANGALORE
SQC INDIA OFFICEBeing a marketing executive, I was given a chance to travel in the course of my work. Business trips certainly added a brand new experience to me in terms of travelling! My previous holiday trips only allowed me to see what the tour guide wanted me to see. If I would to describe my trips as a cake, then the tour guide only showed me the surface which were the beautiful decorations. Business trips showed me the deeper level of the cake. It gave me the insight of how the cake was baked and what ingredients were used.
I was given the opportunity to visit India, Bangalore on a business trip. Capital of the Southern state of Karnataka. Bangalore is Asia's fastest growing cosmopolitan city. It is home to some of the most high tech industries in India. A new airport was built in Bangalore to welcome more visitors. I was one of the lucky few who get to enjoy the facilities when SIA landed at the newly opened Bangalore Airport. Free mineral waters were placed on the table for the passengers waiting at the belt to recover their luggage. Upon stepping out of the airport, cool weather welcome me.
The days that followed during my visit widened my horizon of insights in India. People over there are passionate about upgrading themselves. Their minds worked fast and constantly reviewed what worked best for them. They were not afraid to voice their opinions and provided suggestions that can be pretty outrageous! You would certainly be amazed if you were not used to such open "cross fire" kinds of discussion. Besides work, I got to catch a movie during my last day of the visit. I was greeted by the beautiful interior design at the cinema. At that moment, all the negative stories I heard about India never crossed my mind. In fact, I felt I was in one of the shopping centres in Singapore!
Do not be frightened by things you have heard about India. Go see for yourself. As of March 2008, there are 1.13 billion people in India. No doubt India is still a developing country. However, India is also the country that has the most billionaires! It is indeed a land of possibilities! If you have the courage and the persistence, anything can happen! Who knows, you might be the next billionaire in India!
