Our huge neighbour which has made stupendos strides in its eoconomy and is feted world over as super power in waiting has also succumbed to the apping syndrome if reports in a daily is to be believed. In view of the upcoming business summit next May ,a section of the population that have stuck to their comfortable pyjamas ,traditional Chinese garb are being advised ,counselled and may in future be coerced to shed them in favour of Western suits so that they can impress the Western delegates and visitors when they land in Shangai.
We are also super power in waiting with a booming economy but will we or our neta's shed the dhothi,kurta pyjamas and sarees and switch over to Western suits in order to impress Western delegates?
Our culture is as ancient as China's but our sense o f individualism and natural fondness for democratic values are far far deeper than our neighbours and will shed our traditional attire only to please ourselves and not to please foreign visitors.No government in power will ever dare to impose a dress code on us as it is sure to be thrown out in the very next elections.
