Seemingly bombed roads and extra long seats on two wheelers seem to be enduring features of life in India. When we were kids, there were multiple stories of wives and children who had to walk home because Appa drove over a pothole and unseated members of the family riding behind!

I thought the roads were much better now... but apparently not.

The Air India turnaround indeed looks like it will be a long slog. I wonder what happens during times of bad management that make it so difficult to turn things around. This week, I read an article about German elections and how East Germany still have very distinct political views shaped by it still being economically behind the former West. Investment alone seems insufficient... I hope Air India turns around faster than East Germany!
