Zoho to foray into R&D in manufacturing sector

This is good. Sridhar Vembu in many of his speeches mentioned how he is inspired by East Asia & Germany rathar than Anglo saxons & manufacturing (R&D) is the true wealth rather than finantialization of economy.

In Olympics,
5 Golds will put you in top 20
10 Golds will put you in top 10
20 Golds will put you in top 5

For Paris Olympics our target should be 5 Golds. It is not impossible if Shooting & Wrestling athletes perform up to their potential.
