I like how their culture seems more more interested in developing brainpower than firepower. And the way they don't discourage women from acting like empowered human beings with the same potential and rights as men. Oh, and their food. I like their food.

They took care of firepower back in 1974 when they fist tested Smiling Buddha, their "peaceful nuclear weapon". That said, while I have visited almost a dozen nations, I have not yet visited India but would love to do so in the future.

I suppose some context is appropriate. What I meant was that women are not beaten into professional submission the same way they are in, say, Pakistan.

I have heard statistics that say some 40% of all college students in India are female. And I have seen that many women hold engineering and scientific degrees and careers.

While there may be some distance to go for true equality, you can say that about any country (even here in the US).

But compared to much of the world, my impression of India is that opportunities for women are not officially or violently oppressed, and that the culture is moving in the right direction. I am sure it doesn't feel fast enough, but it is moving.

I've developed a great admiration for the family values of Indian families I've known in the US.

As for India, the country. My impression is it's vibrant, dynamic, colorful, crowded and loud. As a child I was interested in India under British rule - have no idea why.

I love books about, movies about and photos of India. Don't want to go there as I don't like crowds, noise or curry. I do like cows and elephants, though.

They are far too over-populated. Much more peaceful that most of the world. I don't care for Curry foods but some of their food is good - not my fav by a long shot. Some areas are not the most hospital natural environments to be in. Good rock and gem hunting opportunities.

Frankly, I don't know any Indians other than online, but several that I know online are pretty kewl people - intelligent and well humored.

Sorry - that's all I got.

There's no way you could force me to visit Singapore - or any of the more densely populated areas. That kind of eco-trashing is just frightening to me. With over a bil people, India will never be on my list of "want to goes" either, no matter what the gemstone opportunities are over there.

There's a whole bunch of them over there and no one can tell them what to do so I have to take my hat off them for that.

I hear they're working on their cast system, maybe in another 25-30 years the seriously poor over there won't be so in numbers and depth of poverty and I love their curry chicken.

I've worked with a number of them and have to say most of the ones I know over here in the USA aren't the nicest of people since many of them actually believe in that caste system crap.

I'm not interested in visiting.

I love India and many of the people that I've met there. There are so many different languages/ dialects/ and different cultures that traveling there was a real eye-opening experience. There were some people, though, that flat out scared the crap out of me, but overall most of the people were kind and welcoming.

I remember boarding on a train with one of my guides and it took two translators to get directions to where we were going. I realized that not everyone in India speaks English and that the languages that are there are very diverse.

I traveled through a place called Naga and many of the people there looked Chinese, not Indian. But we were in the northern part of India. The people there were so friendly and the food was absolutely amazing. I loved it so much there I almost decided to live there for awhile.

The diversity and wide variety of Indian food blew my mind too.

That was over 15 years ago though and I hear that it's more dangerous for Americans to travel there now (certain parts).

It is said that language changes every 10 miles in India. Naga is a state near to Chinese Border.. they seem like chinese but they are Indian. And you cannot match hospitality of North Indians. I dont see any danger to any American. Never even heard for last 30 years.

Yes, we would go from one village to the next and the dialect would change on us. Even our guide sometimes had to find someone who spoke one of his languages (he spoke 4 or 5).

I did a lot of things I wouldn't normally do. I slept as a guest in someone's house for a couple of nights and got to sleep on a mat on the floor. I drank chai tea and it kept me up all night because I didn't realize it had lots of caffeine in it. Hahahah.

I have many fond memories. So many great and hospitable people. I have a smile on my face right now.

@ Sal

Lots of high dollar gems for sale in Singapore...not many places left to scout for gems though.

Singapore reminded me of a giant ultra-modern shopping mall and it was a very expensive place to visit. Was it my favorite place to visit? Nope. I much preferred Australia and then probably Africa and the Philippines. I also hit Japan which I did not find to be a ton of fun.

As far as the Maldives go, that country making the list as one of the most densely populated is a bit deceptive because the Maldives is an island chain of 1,190 islands, and only a little over 200 of the islands are inhabited, and only 5 islands have a population of more than 3,000. Over 1/3 of the inhabitants live on the island of Male, which is capital city and it is VERY densely populated.

The Maldives is one of the most beautiful places on earth, and when I was there you could basically have an island all to yourself if you wanted it.

In-fact they will lease some of the islands long term, and I understand now foreigners can purchase some of the islands. But to lease or purchase you must make a significant contribution to the country's economy.

Maldivian waters are home to several ecosystems, but are most noted for their variety of colourful coral reefs, home to 1100 species of fish, 5 species of sea turtles, 21 species of whales and dolphins, 187 species of corals, 400 species of molluscs, and 83 species of echinoderms. Many crustacean species are there as well: 120 copepod, 15 amphipod as well as over 145 crab and 48 shrimp species. (Wikipedia)

About the only real threat to the Maldives (besides possible radicals or monster tsunamis) are the rising seas...if the sea level rises roughly 23 inches by 2100 they may be forced to abandon their own islands. They are considering a land purchase in India just incase one day they are forced from their own country by the rising seas.

Again, this is one of the most remote and beautiful places in the world and few who visit are disappointed. If you don't want to see people, you won't see people. Yes, if you stay at one of the world class resorts you will see a few people and get to do some very cool things. Not exactly overpopulation though.

One of the other countries I would love to visit on that list is the Netherlands. A few others that I would like to see on the list are Monaco, Israel, Bahrain and some of those popular island destinations.

As engineers and scientists, they are just as good as westerners.

Richard Nixon has commented that the 21st century will be a match between Indian socialist democracy, and socialism with chinese characteristics.

India doesn't have the guts to kill union leaders like the People's Republic of China and so it will always lag somehow behind the PRC in terms of efficiency.

Don - beautiful pics. Those mountains are beautiful, but I imagine there's little public property. That's the same as the NE of the US - beautiful scenery but most of it has been grabbed by the gov and is "park system" or it's privately owned. It's rough to find places to hunt stone out there, and much is fee digging. If you like days of roaming with little traffic, you have to go west.

I don't know how much of India's property is available to purchase, lease, or inhabit, but I do know the the Himalayas are one of the most famous mountain ranges in the world, and tons and tons of climbing, hiking, and expeditionary tours are available.

That said, if you look around you can find a great many villages tucked away in the high country and the valleys of India.

I don't mind some of our land being grabbed by the park system to be preserved as a public property that we can all visit. I have enjoyed my time at many National Parks across the U.S., and I have spent more than my fair share of time at State Parks here in the Midwest. I love the parks because they give my family and I plenty of places to camp, fish, hike, boat, ski, tube, ride bikes, photograph, enjoy nature etc. etc.

If all land was private land one may not be able to afford or be allowed into many great areas. That said, I don't believe in all government land grabs, and certainly not super-large parcels that are grabbed that we not allowed to frequent. Sure the government needs some large parcels but sometimes I think they go a bit too far.

That said, friends of the family used to own several mountains and a few small gold mines near Ridgeway, Colorado. You could not visit those beautiful mountains unless you were family, or friends of the family, so for most folks a National, State, County, or City Park in the area is a good thing if you want to enjoy your surroundings.

I know an Indian guy who lives over here now, that said he once went on vacation with his friends in India and they paid the local telephone guy to not cut their lines. Their attitude was just pay the guy now instead of having an disruption in service in which they'll have to pay anyway.

He said everyone's corrupt but that story comes from way back in the 1990s.

Thanks

this is small amount. Really small. India had scams worth billions of $$$$. 100s of billions of $$$$$$$ is stashed in Swiss Banks.

But things are changing.. not very fast.. but things are changing.
