ADVENTURE WORLD TOUR |
Glamorous, full of romance and feel of beautiful art, that India lives in Bollywood films. Many of course asks, really like it real life in India. Lives of most people in India are very far from the truth''''with what is shown in Bollywood films. Nevertheless, there are still lessons to be learned to be a lesson or comparison. Perhaps, travel journalist, I Nyoman Sugiarta Bali Post that following the "ASEAN-India Media Exchange Programme (ASEAN Media Visit to India)" 23 November to 2 December 2006 to give actual conditions there.
Departure from Denpasar, Bali with Singapore airlines, I have to transit a few hours in Singapore airport, before traveling to New Delhi. I landed at the IG International Airport in New Delhi at midnight. Here was beginning to look a difference between what is presented in Bollywood films. The condition of the airport in New Delhi this looks very old, appears without structuring and restructuring. Very much different than the Ngurah Rai Airport, Bali. In the dim evening, all the way to the hotel where I stay, the condition of slums was visible. Like a cliff in the area of Ubud, the gap between human settlements around the hotel looked so tall and wide.
In the morning, I met with delegations from other countries in the ASEAN region. We all received N. Venkataraman, Head of State Publications Publications Division, Indian Foreign Kemeterian. He was the only person who accompanied our trip for a few days exploring some tourist and industrial center in India. There was no response from the local media there, let alone their visits to the editorial. This could give rise to protests, because the title of this program is the''ASEAN-India Media Exchange Programme''. But as fatigue and burnout visit very, very solid, we forget about the problem.
Venkarataman then invited us to meet Indian Foreign Secretary N Ravi. Krodit atmosphere because of the multitude of men, though perfectly sound riuhnya vehicles ranging from motorcycles, bemo tricycle, taxi, private car or bus. More perfect, since almost all motor vehicle that emits a loud and long horn. New Delhi as the capital of India's independence in 1947, it has a very dense population. Originally the population of New Delhi is only about 0.6 million inhabitants, but as its development as a metropolitan city, its population now reaching 14 million people is more a result of urbanization. And, almost 99 percent of the population rely on motor vehicles as a means of transportation, only about one percent use the train.
Economics and IT
Many things related to cooperation in economic, industrial, technology, particularly information technology (IT), including tourism which we dialogkan between delegations from Asean journalists with N Ravi. Concerning this matter, India is very much shot. Especially after we visited and met directly with some of the sector actors. For example in India Habitat Centre, we met with the Confederation of Indian Industry (CII, a sort of Chamber of Commerce in Indonesia - ed) which has about 60,000 members. One of them with the Society of Indian Automobile Manufactureres (SIAM).
"One of them with Indonesia, in automotive sector related to tourism, we organize Indonesia - Asian Car Relly. This is also in order to promote in particular the automotive business," said Director General of the Society of Indian Automobile Manufactureres (SIAM), Dilip Chenoy.
We also briefly visited the Delhi Metro, a fast train control center in New Delhi to address the transportation problems in this region. Also visit the Indian information technology, HI-Tech City, an international business school the Indian School of Business, Hyderabad International Convention Centre, Indian drug company association PHARMEXIL. Apparently, Indonesia became the fourth largest importer of medicines from India after Singapore, Malaysia and the Philippines.
In Bangalore, we are invited to visit the Infosys Campus, the center of aerospace (satellite manufacturing, etc..) Hindustan Aeronautics Limited (HAL) and place of manufacture of helicopters. Apparently, satellites and helicopters are also to be exported, including to Indonesia. We also visited a factory that produces various TVS Motor motorcycles and now also invest in Indonesia.
In Mumbai (onions), we visited the Tata Consultancy Services Hqrs. one of whose production is widely used Indian society is a sedan. Larsen & Toubro also visited the headquarters of many oil producing various exploration purposes and the like, especially offshore. For all of these matters, must be recognized in the ASEAN countries are still far less even lags behind India. Indonesia and other countries in the region should learn a lot from this country's Gandhi.
Local Tourists
Lessons can also be learned from India's ability to optimize the potential of local tourists. India sells a variety of historical heritage to the tourists. More interestingly, the dominant attending various heritage objects that are local tourists from various Indian states.
In the Heroes Cemetery in New Delhi, for example, local tourists seemed crowded even have to queue. In fact, the parliament building (Parliament here - ed) was crowded domestic tourists. This scene also appears in the Hussein Sagar Lake is at its center stands a statue of Buddha and the statue of Shiva. "On average 1,000 people per day visit here," said Somaiah, tour guide who accompanied us. Riot local and international tourists looking at the Taj Mahal. "This place is a romantic place. Who comes here nearly 7,000 people per day. Taj Mahal done by Isac Han Effendi, a Turkish architect," said tour guide there.
Another interesting tourist attraction, Charminar, which is an old mosque and built combines Hindu and Islamic architecture. Similarly, Mysore Palace, an historic heritage building the King of Mysore. Other places are "sold" almost everything in the form of historic relics. And who came berkunujung mostly local tourists from other states of India. This is where their advantages in utilizing and optimizing the local potential.
The less pleasant, almost at every crossroads and on every tourist attraction surrounded by beggars and traders acung. They not only lifted the hand, even the busy-busy banging on the car door or pulling at hand. They also exploit their children to go begging. In fact, there are beggars tend to "do business". Because the author's experience, they do not want to be given money, but ask for a variety of goods bought in the supermarket or mall. Perhaps this is not enviable, especially to Bali.
