I usually go through Iland when ever I have free time.Tought of starting bloging on my day today  ideas openly here with ILand friends.I find Iland is one of the best forum to do so.I am not a professional write neither have any experience of publishing this kind of stuff in magazines.
I am a software professional ,right now thousand miles away from my homeland.Some time life is very lonely and painful.As well said grass is greener at other end.To most of my friends I am a lucky guy as I am travelling across globe on project demands.But seldom they know apart from office hours how painful here to pass time without your friend circles and away from home.

But the things here on western countries that sometimes forced us to think about our attitude of people and way of govrnance back home ...

1) Social Security offered by the states to it's citizen[May be population is one of the major player here]
2)Infracstuctures
3)Respect to  work [They don't look down people on the basis of Job or Social status]
4) Etiquette and manners of people
5)Work and personal life balances

May be back home Populations is the main lacuna and main obstacle .Selfish nature ,Indian menatality and attitude of people towards fellowcountry men.

Poverty ,Ignorance,Illiteracy major factors that depriving India from emerging as a developed country[We are still considered as third world country and among devloping nation ,though our economy is booming] .
