indo-german friendship

Both India and Germany are destined to play a leading role in the emerging world order! In the subjective age which is now dawning in the world,both countries will have to re-invent themselves to take maximum advantage of the new opportunities.
Germany has been famous for its philosophers,composers,scientists and businessmen while India has been renowned too for its ancient culture and arts. Schopenhauer,Nietzche,Jung,Einstein,Oppenheimer and Max Mueller were deeply influenced by Indian philosophy and acknowledged their debt to India. Companies like Hoechst,Daimler Benz ,Lufthansa and Deutch Bank have been an important presence in India for ages. Indian IT companies have a sizable presence in Germany.There is tremendous scope for cooperation in renewable energy,food processing,tourism,IT, entertainment, biotechnology and space research sectors.
India has a lot to learn from Germany-work ethic,discipline,spirit of inquiry,scientific temper and financial management while Germany can adopt Indian values-tolerance,secularism,assimilation and spirituality.
Germany under Chancellor Angela Merkel has been striving to improve relations with India and it remains for India to reciprocate!
