TATA: A TIMELESS JEWEL

IF WORLD-CLASS NEEDED AN INDIAN SYNONYM...
In the era of post-license Raj, when many business conglomerates were forced to bid adieu to the corporate sector, the legendary Tata group withstood it all. The man behind the scenes was Ratan Tata, who took over from J. R. D. Tata in 1991. First on the target was the culture of the organisation that was institutionalised in the organization since its birth. The relation between the management and employees witnessed a see-saw change – it became more of a practical than a munificent one. To safeguard Tata’s interests within these companies, Ratan decided to raise the conglomerate’s stake (through parent holdings) in all the group companies to minimum 26%. With Ratan sitting at the helm of Tata, an era of corporate management came up.

JET SET TO GO!

The skies have finally opened for Jet Airways after the US Department of Transport cleared Jet to operate flights to America. The clearance comes as a suo-motu action by the US after consulting the US embassy and the CIA on security concerns. With initiation of operational discussions with the Federal Aviation Administration next on its agenda, Jet is well on its way to lock horns with established players like the American Airways, Continental Airways, US Airways, British Airways and Lufthansa in New York and San Francisco sectors.

GREASEPAINT IN GREECE

Where else could the screen gods and goddesses look better than in the very land of the most beautiful pantheon from mythology itself?! Sandy beaches, clear luminous waters, rocky mountains with flowerbeds, evocative archaeological sites, tranquil countryside, effervescent nightlife… it’s all there in Greece. Particularly in its cosmopolitan and pulsating capital, Athens, the dream merchants could choose to capture for their canvases anything from restaurants, cafes, theatre galleries, high-end shopping experience, taverns, wineries or simply quiet open spaces. Surrounded by the Aegean, Ionian and the Mediterranean Seas, some of its must-stop-overs are the Mykonos, Paros and Santorini islands collectively constituting the Cyclades but each with its distinctive flavour and character ‘For Your Eyes Only’!

LTTE


Tamils might need more recognition in Sri Lanka, but LTTE, with its unwavering violence oriented responses on the whole, has never done any good to their cause. Examples in south and west Asia have clearly shown how violent techniques to demand even justifiable rights have resulted in stand-off positions spreading over decades. Democracy has always provided the most wonderful structures for minorities to reclaim rightful privileges, and in the shortest time. Sri Lanka is surely not an autocracy, and still runs on the very tenets that democracy stands for. LTTE has been repeatedly provided the opportunity to undertake collective bargaining and democratic negotiation; offers which have been repeatedly spurned due to extremely myopic fears of losing out on territories gained till now. LTTE, and of course the Sri Lankan government, should realise that the straightforward solution to resolving the current conflict is in a few magic words – literacy, healthcare support, employment opportunities, improvements in per capita income and standards of living. Pray tell us, how tough can that be, compared to the billions of dollars wasted by both sides on war?
