IMPORTED

मेरा जूता है जापानी, पतलून है इंगलिश्तानी, सर पे लाल टोपी रस्सी, फिर भी दिल है हिन्दुस्तानी(I wear shoes Made in Japan, Suit Made in England, My HAT is from Russia, but i am an INDIAN by heart). This is a famous song from Raj Kapoors movie Shree 420 which almost everyone of my age are grown up hearing.



I used to be passionated by this song and dream when will i have all the imported stuff to wear & use. In those days Imported, was like a Great Quality or may be a great feeling(As we never know how crappy they would be till used). Not only those day but till recently when India opened its doors for the world to free trade. when the trade started this first guy to take the advantage was China. The quality was good comparing to the price for the items. But gradually understood IMPORTED means just another kinda item(nothing special about them)

Now while roaming in malls here, i will be always searching for something "MADE IN USA" which i was not that lucky enough to see till now. All i seen in chronological order are
1. Made in China
2. Made in INDIA
3. Made in Bangladesh

So Quality and Imported are 2 different entities which i don't mix up now.
