The financial wrongdoing

The financial wrongdoing - Satyam

The news of Ramalingam Raju confessing fraud and submitting resignation sends in shock waves to many. Here is a man who suddenly wakes up to his consciecne and admits to manipulating the balance sheet. It leaves me wondering as to how something of this sort can be covered up for a long time now and the Satyam board is clueless.
A brand that was respected so much over the years ; the company that contributed to the economy , a brand which Satyam employees were proud of serving .... and one fine morning goes topsy turvy leaving behind a big debate on corporate governance.Will this development shake the confidence and trust levels in IT industry? A topic to debate....

Hap Happ Happy

What drove me to write on this is two things - a post by my journo friend questioning the way we are living today and a related article that I read on happiness index and how India fares very poor in this , in the 117th place much below small countries like Bhutan. And I just cant resist sharing the pride that I had when my son's teacher had penned in the report card that he is a happy child - a remark that I really take more seriously than even the academics. And when we met in one of PTA, she did not forget to mention this too.

Beyond that i dont see any reason why we need to create so much hype for a film made by Mr. Danny Boyle going to oscars, (ofcourse produced by our Anil Kapoor). Thats we, the people.......

Corona positive

Hold your thoughts there! Yes, you read the title right, but probably the inference is not what you think!! I #StayatHome, therefore, I #StaySafe. Ever since the pandemic situation took center stage, there is gloom, sadness, incidences of humanity and inhumanness too, jobs lost, migrants suffering, economy taking a beat., overall more of not so positive conversations around us.
