Mukul-da,
   
  why possible in free Assam only -- is that a way of shifting the blame -or shifting the responsibilty to next generations.

        From the Harvard travelogue
  Q: Although moving toward a more capitalist system, the government still plays a strong role in the economic environment of the country. Does that presence help or hinder entrepreneurial efforts there?
  A: Time will tell, but I think in the short and medium run it is clear that the government is a major driving force. By the way, "government" is not a monolithic entity. There are national, provincial, and municipal governments. All are playing roles, but my sense is that the regional governments' roles are the most significant in terms of creating the infrastructure to support entrepreneurship—university programs, tax incentives, incubator programs, educational programs, and the like.   Possible  only in a free -or freed-Assam

  Q: What's a "sea turtle" and why is it important in discussing the development of entrepreneurism in China?
  There are many paths to successful venture creation, and viewing the phenomenon from a completely different perspective is enlightening.   A: We heard the phrase "sea turtle" a few times. These are the Chinese who spend significant time abroad and then come back to China to "lay eggs," that is, start new ventures. In addition to bringing with them insights, skills, attitudes, tangible assets, and contacts that are useful to their ventures, the government has created incentives to NRA -anybody?
