FDI battle between India Inc and Politicians
New Delhi: On the FDI in retail issue, battle lines are now clearly drawn between India Inc and the politicians, who are rooting for the neighbourhood grocer. While politicians are divided on the issue Corporate India appears united.
"Retailing in India will bring different contours for farmers, small manufacturers and employment," said Bharti Walmart Chairman Rajan Bharti Mittal.
"Today, modern retail offers creation of 8-10 million jobs over the next 8-10 years. I don't think this kind of employment generation possible in any other industry intervention," said CII National Retail Committee Chairman Thomas Varghese.
The biggest fear of them is - will it create jobs or takeaway jobs?
The industry claims Opening up retail will revolutionised supply chain, cut out middlemen and bring backend technology like the cold storage chain. The end result will be better prices for farmers and cheaper fruits and vegetables.

The fragility of the UK economy will return to light next week, with the latest unemployment figures expected to show that the loss of jobs in the public sector and the collapse of trust between the companies led to rapidly rising unemployment.
The Chancellor has made clear that it intends to blame the deterioration of economic prospects channel case, and to insist that the deviation of its strategy of deficit reduction would expose the UK to a loss of investor confidence in the face Italy in recent days.
Former Bank Vice President Lucas Papademos was sworn in as prime minister in Greece promises to implement the reform measures and spending cuts required as part of its latest international rescue package agreed in Brussels earlier this month.
Jonathan Loynes, economist at Capital Economics in Europe, said: .. "It always seems to be extraordinary complacency effect all this will have on the euro area, all indicators point to a deep recession, and everything explode without the euro if the euro moves up, another Lehman, or even more. "

United Kingdom's Business Relationship With Latin America In 2011
This past year marked 200 years Simon Bolivar visited the United Kingdom, during which the revolutionary leader has tried to support the movement for independence in Latin America. Although the British government initially remained neutral in the struggle between Spain and Latin America, the UK has become a valuable troops and weapons of the revolutionary army of Bolivar.
Two centuries later, in his speech at Canning House November 15, 2010, the British Secretary of State for Foreign and Commonwealth Affairs, William Hague, said, "History teaches us that the UK has high experience in Latin America and neglect their opportunities. This is the abandonment that the British government is determined to tackle.
Three areas where cooperation could be strengthened between Great Britain and Latin America have been identified in the speech: trade, diplomacy and security. But despite the rhetoric of government inevitable, the attempt of the United Kingdom to strengthen relations with Latin America focused on the development of bilateral trade relations, a policy that harken back to the time of the Empire.
These countries no longer need to actively seek sponsorship of an established global forces. In order to carve out a very significant commitment to Latin America, it is important that the coalition government that takes into account the balance of world power, and that the current mutual recognition of the British influence. A simple business relationship is no longer sufficient, Whitehall has extended its focus on the area of foreign policy.

$100 sewage disposal system
WASHINGTON: A U.S. researcher has developed a proposal to develop a simple sewage disposal for the Third World, not just get rid of waste, but also work without using electricity or additional power to destroy germs.
Less than $ 100 and the day's work, a single-family underdeveloped country can build on this solid waste disposal system.
Marc Deshusses, Professor of Civil and Environmental Engineering at Duke Pratt School of Engineering, has plans to develop a plant digestion of the novel with the capture of methane gas that is produced during the decomposition of waste to produce enough heat to kill bacteria and viruses most frequently associated with human waste.
"People in countries that lack adequate sanitary facilities for its wastewater in desperate need of a disposal method that is inexpensive, easy to implement and maintain confidence," said Deshusses. "We believe that the proposed system could represent a breakthrough in protecting the environment and health in developing countries."
The system, designed by Deshusses, waste must be addressed to the Chamber, probably made of PVC pipes. When the closed chamber to create a oxygen-free, or anaerobic, environment, bacteria digest waste.
As a byproduct of digestion, methane gas is produced. "The system works like a septic tank used in many rural communities," said Deshusses.
But on the other hand, the methane released into the environment, a new approach for capturing and burning to create enough heat to kill pathogens in the liquid.
