Hi Sunny
You make some very good points and I agree racism is to be avoided.
However, you say "A company would never even think of going in for offshore
mode until it makes profit. So, if a company makes profit doing work in
offshore mode it makes profit which adds up to the economic state of both
the countries".
This is not true. Although the company may make a profit by going offshore,
not guaranteed, if it does it will be at the expense of local workers who
will lose their jobs to another nation. That increases the numbers on
benefit and that is subsequently a drain on the wealth resources of the home
country, whichever you wish to name.
The problem is a global one that politicians need to resolve. Chief Execs,
wherever they are, are only interested in their bottom line. That of course
is how they are judged, so who can blame them?
I restate my position of only providing info on this forum for those I am
pretty sure are well trained in JDE skills, but who have come across an
unusual or urgent problem. Sad to say, there are many who post on here who
are just after free knowledge transfer. As far I'm concerned, they're on
their own and should RTFM.
Keep well and take care.

Subject: Re: Offshoring
to you. You have basically picked up inputs from my posts.What I mean by
"transfer is better" is , till the time you are creating your replacement
you cannot reach new heights. If you have reached a level you must look out
for another level, in short you and your career path should be dynamic
enough to set new goals each time your reach a stagnant state.It seems this
post is nothing but your inability to compete with your counterpart in
developing countries. Today the IT market is that of competition from all
corners. To be in the market you have to be the best. No one in the whole
world would pay if you cannot perform. It goes without saying Time is Money
in today's world economy. So, if you don't have the skills to perform in
TIME no one is going to wait for you to finish the job. The buck is always
going to be passed to the one who can perform in time.I don't think and am
also very sure nobody!
jdelist. Its all your decision weather you want to be a part of the forum or
not. There are many who are joining in everyday and leaving too.I believe
FORUMS is a place where you visit to get your issue resolved or resolve
others issue. This happens under only two circumstances 1) You are stuck on
a issue. 2) You have the knowledge and you wish to share in your spare time
and at the same time learn. In short, I believe Forums help you sharpen your
skills and knowledge and inspire to reach new heights. A company would never
even think of going in for offshore mode until it makes profit. So, if a
company makes profit doing work in offshore mode it makes profit which adds
up to the economic state of both the countries. Further, offshore resources
can always be trained to compete with you.As far as experience of working
with offshore team is concerned, I don't deny the fact some do mess up. But
then again!
design of a particular module and for your information they had to except
our design because of too many flaws in their design.You have tried to
create somekind of a anti Indian or China feeling in here and divide the
people on this ground. This is not a gesture of a true professional.I don't
want to say more on this.. I would end my post by saying lets not create a
political forum out here but utilize this platform JDELIST.COM as knowledge
sharing one.I am sorry if I have heart someone's feelings.I just want to
speak in the spirit of the forum.
