dis 1 is my fvt ques



Can blind people see their dreams nd do dey dream????

If a person is borne blind he/she might be able to but I am not sure. If a person suffers a loss of his/her sight then he/she probably can see the dream as memory and imaginations are still there. Sorry to sound logical; I tried to think of a stupid answer but couldn't! :whew:

Knowledge / Remembering The "Forgotten Army"
« on: August 11, 2010, 08:15:02 PM »
My grandfather was in Burma during the Japanese invasion in WW2, he was part of the “Forgotten Army”. I remember the scars on his body from the torture he suffered along with other POWs. As far as he was concerned Japan will always be unforgiven. He wasn’t alone with that sentiment as there are many more like him, Indian, British and Burmese. I wish to say "Baba ji, I am proud of you as I sit and look at your medals".

Indeed, The Japanese were brutal in their treatment of prisoners in WW2 and as for their record of occupation of the Chinese, you need to read about the Rape of Nanking.

As far as I am aware Japan has never apologised to the people of India and Burma. Given that it used Indian captured soldiers for target practice and put them through far greater levels of torture than any other troops. The Japanese have even tried to erase from history their activities during their occupation of China by changing history books taught in school. Not long ago the Chinese people threatened to erase all Japanese business from China if the Japanese re-wrote history.

The British Fourteenth Army was a multinational force comprising units from Commonwealth countries during World War II. Many of its units were from the Indian Army as well as British units and there were also significant contributions from West and East African divisions within the British Army.

It was often referred to as the "Forgotten Army" because its operations in the Burma Campaign were overlooked by the contemporary press, and remained more obscure than those of the corresponding formations in Europe for long after the war

It is clear that the 1st Sikh battalion (aka 14th Sikh, Ferozpure Sikhs and King Georges Own) were there under Maj Gen Slims's command. It appears as if the famous 2nd Sikh (15th Ludhiana) were also there. There were almost definitely more Sikh forces under his command; more time is required to track down the exact details. This paper represents the work done to date on this request.


General Sir Frank Messervy KCSI, KBE, CB, DSO said of the Sikh regiments:
"Finally, we that live on can never forget those comrades who in giving their lives gave so much that is good to the story of the Sikh Regiment. No living glory can transcend that of their supreme sacrifice, may they rest in peace.
In the last two world wars 83,005 turban wearing Sikh soldiers were killed and 109,045 were wounded. They all died or were wounded for the freedom of Britain and the world and during shell fire, with no other protection but the turban, the symbol of their faith."

If a lama has babies is it a mama lama?

If a lama comes from Nassau in the islands is it a Bahamas lama?

If the US president bought a lama is it an Obama lama?

If a lama turns to Buddhism will it be called a Dali lama?

Below are the Interview Questions, which were asked in HR Round.....



Question 2: What will you do if I run away with your sister?"


"THINK OUTSIDE THE BOX"
[/color][/color][/color][/color][/color][/color][/color][/color][/color][/size][/color]




My answer to that one would be

“Stick your job where the sun don’t shine; if you run off with my sister you’d be dead”!

I don’t think I would get the job but I would still have my honour.

This year marks the 60th anniversary of the establishment of diplomatic ties between India and China. Amid a series of exchanges of high-level congratulations and visits, news from the economic front is also exciting: The first two months of the year saw a 55 percent increase in bilateral trade as compared to 2009. All this seems to show that the relationship between the world's two most populous countries is faring well and will grow even stronger.

Behind this promising picture, however, a few gnawing issues are still standing in the way between the two titans. If not handled properly, the road ahead for them would not be as smooth as expected.

First, China and India share about 2,000 kilometres of border, and the boundary has never been formally delineated. The famous poet Robert Frost said in a well-known poem that "Good fences make good neighbours." Many confrontations between countries have been ignited by disputes in their border area. The two sides should quicken their steps on demarcation consultations that began in the 1980s.
 
Second, as China gains an increasing sphere of influence in the world arena, many Indians, including high-ranking officials, see China as a potential rival or even a threat to India. This may partly explain why India has yet to recognize China's market economy status, while over 60 countries have granted such status to China. Such anti-China sentiments will not help cultivate a friendly atmosphere for bilateral ties to grow, but rather sow the seeds of distrust between the two countries.

Third, India has always harboured a grudge over China's all-weather friendship with Pakistan. The China-Pakistan relationship is based on mutual trust and mutual support in nation building and international cooperation. To maintain a peaceful external environment, China also wants to build closer ties with India. If China could become a mutual friend to the two Asian rivals, it will contribute more to regional peace and stability. This will eventually serve India's interests as well.

To address these issues, the Indian side needs to show real sincerity in forging a more friendly relationship with China. An "Asia century" will remain only a dream until the two Asian giants can treat each other with mutual trust and respect.

couldn't have agreed with you anymore :loll: poor Darwin...nice choice of words "troglodyte"



P.S. It's nice to see you in a humorous mood. :happy:

Hello noXiouS ji

Yeah, I needed a break from work and was getting a bit grumpy lately; but my humour is coming back.

Troglodyte is such a fantastic word, it nails it everytime!

noXiouS ji

What about people who write gibberish in a language not known to any intelligent life form. I can just imagine extra terrestrials abducting some of the posters here and performing some sort of communications test; they would be seriously underwhelmed, especially if they were sent to abduct English speakers from the PJ site. I am quite convinced abductees would be returned to earth stamped “troglodyte, return to earth”. I can just see ET standing there with his chin in his hand and saying to his buddy "what the @@@@ is he saying, oh don't get him to write it down". :wait:  /:)
 
Perhaps it is a backward journey; from human to ape, thereby proving Charles Darwin to have been barking at the wrong tree. Do you think?
