Can we educate the regulator?Can we educate the regulator?

Over the decades, he has emerged as one of the most respected entrepreneurs of post-Independence India and nurtures the powerful corporate legacy of the Godrej family. He is very optimistic about India’s future. And yet, when B&E asks Adi Godrej about one single issue that could derail India. he unhesitatingly says ‘education’. “The State has to encourage private sector participation in education. There is no other option. It is the private sector that made the third rate telecom and aviation sectors in India world class. It is the private sector that will do it in education.” And of critical importance is the FEI (Foreign Educational Institutions: regulation of entry and operations, maintenance of quality and prevention of commercialisation) Bill, 2007, that had to be shelved last year by Arjun Singh due to stiff opposition from the Left. Granted that the current UPA government has just about a few months left to go before it is election season.....Continue

Too Lee’ttle, too...

Lee’s exit looks positive, hopefully the law will take its course

‘Once bitten, twice confident’ – Though antipodal, the tad goes well with Lee Kun-hee, Chairman of the world’s largest electronic company – Samsung Electronics. Lee, son of Samsung group founder Lee Byung-chul, resigned from his post on April 21, 2008 following his alleged involvement in the slush funds scandal. And along with him resigned his son and heir to the company, Lee Jae-yong and Vice Chairman Lee Hak-soo. But before one thinks that the allegations against Chairman Lee might be a mite too heavy (as being opined by company insiders and even some analysts), one perhaps forgets that in 1996, Lee was fully convicted on the charges of bribing ex-presidents of South Korea. It was only a presidential pardon (!) that allowed him to return to the company, and that too, at the helm of affairs! But the bigger question now is, will Lee’s resignation actually work positively for the group? Or is it the clichéd tale of too Lee’ttle, too late?

An alumnus of George Washington University, Lee took over the baton in 1988. It was under his leadership that Samsung Electronics became one of world’s leading manufacturers of semiconductors. In January 2008, a special investigation was carried out, instigated by Samsung’s former Chief Lawyer Kim Yong-chul, after he issued public allegations of financial irregularities....Continue

Wild Hogs-II

Don’t tell us you didn’t see the movie Wild Hogs! Aw, come on. It’s a rollicking comedy about four buddies – John Travolta, Tim Allen, Martin Lawrence and William H. Macy – who, sick of the boring rigmarole of their depressing lives, decide to rock the highway party up, to go upcountry on a side splitting motorcycle road trip. Not only do they end up fighting with almost every highway roadster they meet, but also ensure endless hilarious disputes with each other. So what’s that got to do out here in our review on the Bajaj Group? Well, we guess you missed the start.

To be honest, it’s not half as bad with the Bajaj Group; in fact, despite the past external and internal argument trafficking, they’re in quite a good shape. But if you thought that there’s more than what meets the eye in the July 14, 2007, appointment of Niraj Bajaj (Rahul Bajaj’s cousin) as the Chairman of Mukand Industries just two days after Rahul Bajaj was honourably eased from the same post, you might be spot on.
