We have an 8000 year-old culture to showcase and yet while one city - Paris - attracts 25 million foreign tourists a year, an entire country - India - gets 11 million. We haven’t plucked the lowest-hanging fruit. We are watching it rot.
My views on tourism, on World Tourism Day:
@ARanganathan72 For me, it’s about reading, learning, and approaching ideas with an open mind. I reflect on what they mean to me and to society, without feeling the need to align myself with any group, ideology, or ism.I’m happy being that way.
@Sahu_dmt@jasveer10 That’s my point as well. Conveniently selfish individuals are skipping the lifelong trauma children go through who are part of the circus played by their parents. Such people should not even think about having a child
@jasveer10 This comes from a limited understanding of marriage and how it evolved. Divorce is largely a legal and social institution today; historically, even polygamy existed in many societies. Not everything today needs normalizing. Children need stable families for the well-being!
@biased_human Cost of cheating definitely not life, but do suicide come under that is something that needs a much deeper introspection than your quick emotional follow-up
@humanfromhills@alwaysurschetan@RShivshankar Exactly. Academic pressure isn’t something exclusive to IITs. These guys talk as if being in an IIT somehow makes their academic pressure unique, but ultimately, protests like these only end up making a mockery of their own argument.
@INCIndia Good that it’s a video, we can conveniently skip it. Good try, should start making reels and earn some bucks, otherwise nothing to offer to the nation by the grand old party
@RamyaDpalani Exactly my thought as well. Do they actually take a few hours off or even take leave just to watch a celebrity walk by and greet them? Why spend your precious time on something that probably holds the least value in your life?
@DforceOffl Kalvi not equal to arivu. I strongly agree!!
No advanced education can teach basic manners, civic sense and the ability to understand what are our priorities
@Pokkiri_Victor There was a group of people mocking Ajith for his behaviour especially in foreign countries with his fans. Now we know why exactly he is behaving in that way, saving our country’s name in a foreign land is more important than anything else. More civic sense pls!
@MVhandle Agreed. And tech is just one domain. Just imagine everything humans have been doing beyond technology for years and all the things we’ll continue to do in the future. At any given point in time, there’s always a whole bunch of things to learn, explore, and pick up.
