Re: Indian Health Care Sector
^^^ ha ha pakis are happier than India that’s why they r out on the streets
Link to one of Salvatore’s interviews, sorry to make u watch Turdesai. There are plenty of other such interviews on u tube

Here is what a Pakistani saw in India and his take is the opposite of these indexes

PS: we as Indians need not worry too much about these biased rankings but need to look at actual data to continue to improve. Our gdp per capita is abt $ 2k . We should be able to double it in the next 8 to 10 yrs if the current reforms and trajectory holds

Re: Indian Health Care Sector
I'm not worried about the rankings BUT these rankings are used as valid datapoints globally and that creates problems by reinforcing tropes/biases vs India and self flagellation within desis. Note that the said survey was published front and center by NDTV on its website. Not the best publicity for desh esp. with elections coming up soon. Such things can have an impact..Atmavik wrote:^^^ ha ha pakis are happier than India that’s why they r out on the streets

These things should be countered, and I'm working on how that can be done...any suggestions in that direction would be most useful. Thanks

Here's something you can use about the "happiest countries" (esp. Finland):Cain Marko wrote: These things should be countered, and I'm working on how that can be done...any suggestions in that direction would be most useful. Thanks
Especially from about 5:30 - treatment of indigenous people (Sami), including forced conversions to Xtianity, death penalty for following their own ways, ban on beating their drums, taking over their land, etc.
And ironically:
Ancient DNA shows Finns and Sami share identical genes

That’s not true. Otherwise NYT WP DW BBC would be covering Finland.
No?
No?
Re: Indian Health Care Sector
These countries are credible because urban areas are kept near spotlessly clean, rural areas are picturesque and nature spots are largely free of visible litter. Just like their societies that look bright and shiny from the exterior. But have per capita perverse behaviour that will be way off the charts compared to many south bloc countries. The current manic russophobic and pro Nazi behaviour displayed by European countries is so disgusting.
Re: Indian Health Care Sector
Per-capita-wise, Sweden is pretty much the rape capital of the world. "Girl with the Dragon Tattoo" was about this. The things depicted in the book, while making for shocking reading, are par for the course in Sweden.Cyrano wrote:But have per capita perverse behaviour that will be way off the charts compared to many south bloc countries.
Re: Indian Health Care Sector
That was a great trilogy! Movies made from it were pretty good too.
Re: Indian Health Care Sector
Racism and Nazism goes together., in one country on prime TV wasn't the comment "oh they are like us" wrt to Ukranians but just screen time when hundreds and thousands of asians were killed and maimed in the countless white vs brown/black wars ? .. dont know how else to describe this mentality.Cyrano wrote:These countries are credible because urban areas are kept near spotlessly clean, rural areas are picturesque and nature spots are largely free of visible litter.

Re: Indian Health Care Sector
The Herero genocide by Germans is not taught in their school system. DW does not educate the adult population about their past but is careful to report on the evils of gratuitous accusations of love jihad.
When was the last time one read of a Christian pastor in India accused of sexual exploitation, in the western press? The principle has been well established, but only western victims of Christian predation are fit for sympathy.
There is nothing surprising here at all. Given the very poor cultural education in India, efforts need to be directed there.

Re: Indian Health Care Sector
All these points made by Karolina are good indeed. But don't really show any bias within the WHR itself. The latter is based on primary sourced data from Gallup and that makes it very hard to counter with issues related to racial or sexual discrimination.sudarshan wrote:Here's something you can use about the "happiest countries" (esp.

What we need is to point out actual issues in the methods, process, premise of the WHR.
One discrepancy that i found is related to the construct of dystopia in the WHR, which heavily skews the results against India. Not sure why surveyed Indians score so incredibly low compared to their counterparts in other countries, even those with otherwise terrible scores in the scale. Most countries score poorly in terms of generosity (altruism) and freedom to make life choices, factors in which India ranks very, very high (top 10%). India is more generous than Finland and Norway. And, scores better when it comes to freedom of choice, than Canada and the US.
I can easily explain away the list scores on support systems and life expectancy since these are heavily related to economic development.
But what's effing the score for desh is the dystopia factor.
If someone can figure out why this dystopia factor causes such an outlier effect wrt India, that would be great. Importantly, it is not even clear to me why this factor is even used by the report to determine happiness.
Does anyone here have contacts in TSS or IIM who might be interested in co-authoring a paper on this?

My point was, that any method which neglects all these factors in calculating a so-called "happiness index" is flawed to begin with. Or are they claiming that the Scandinavians are so happy because they have full freedom to indulge in perversions??But what's effing the score for desh is the dystopia factor.

I don't see how the women in a country like Sweden can be defined as "happy" if they're going to be the target of - shall we say - male affections (whenever the men get bored of their latest animal conquests, that is)? If they've hypnotized themselves into believing that their state of affairs is "happiness," then that would be a dystopia right there. By definition, no?
I see what you're saying, and I get that you would like to dissect their mathematical methods. One way to do so, would be to look at what representation is accorded in those metrics, to the per-capita sexual assault rate in Sweden/ Norway/ Denmark/ Finland. Also, what representation is given to the happiness of the Sami and Inuit populations? Does being referred to as "Arctic Monkeys" by the white Danes make you happy? How about living in a pile of toxic waste - like Karolina points out - in Finland, companies come up overnight to deal with the problem of toxic wastes, then they collect a lot of garbage, and then promptly shut shop (go "bankrupt"), so there is this impression of "something being done to address the waste issue," but in reality it's a choreographed eye-wash to fool the outside world. I'm not even getting into blowing up whales with explosive harpoons, or dumping in the fjords or the Oresund channel.
I understand that you want to approach the issue in a different way, and that is fine, no problems there. If you find any of the material above to be of use, then you may want to get in touch with Karolina herself, since she specifically requests in her video - "please don't plagiarize this material." Just a suggestion, you are free to disregard it .
Re: Indian Health Care Sector
Western nations do not know the vedic koshas. India knows about annamaya kosha (body fed by anna), pranamaya kosha, manomaya kosha, vigyanamaya kosha and finally the anandamaya kosha. Generally the west bothers about the body, perhaps a little on the mind (about how to dominate and become asuric in nature). What do they know about anandamaya? And above it all is consciousness which escapes the average dude in the west.calculating a so-called "happiness index" is flawed
