Comment from Rediff article on Satyam CFO arrest
"When you manufacture something, you can see and feel the product. While when you do the IT, you produce a computer code which may or may not be useful later on.

i might not agree with the persons argument, but ive wondered if the basis of India's development isnt too flimsy - the IT industry. especially roles like testing, which is barely more than pressing buttons to ensure that they work. my own skill set - web marketing, seems to have a tremendously low threshold and it seems like just about anybody could do it and steal my job. maybe this is a frivolous argument, since IT represents a sphere which will sustain and grow for a long long time.
What a bunch of BS...what about the 'code' that powers your surgeon's equipment when he's trying to keep you alive...a guy who can write code can save a life, launch a rocket, create a bridge or a road, and save your ass through superior wheel drive design when u r drunk and trying to reach home.
Who writes such comments on rediff anyways?
