Do these two regions hate each other or something? I don’t have enough knowledge about this area.
Religious intolerance means you’ll have to wait for the N95 that much longer Pakistan.


Auch, Stefan! You really need to start watching at least some BBC news!
Yes, they have profound “mistrust” for each other, and have had several rounds of fighthing in the history etc. Most notably they are arguing of Kashmir region (Kasmir is of course also the title of the famous Led Zeppelin song..
)
Yes they have PROFOUND mistrust for each other as Viipottaja points out.
Goes back to the time the British left the Indian subcontinent and the land was divided into India and Pakistan. Several wars (one of which lead to a further division of Pakistan into Pakistan and Bangladesh) and a still-ongoing hotly debated issue over the sovereignty of Kashmir, Indians and Pakistanis still can’t get along- which is a sad thing, since I am from Pakistan and have many great Indian friends.
Yet another living example of political divide amongst humans, and, more recently, both in India and Pakistan, the religious right wing creating further mistrust between Hindus and Muslims, both within each country and between the two nations.
I’ll get off my soapbox now….
The entire problem lies with Pakistan – its a failed state built entirely upon hatred for India. Look at the nonsense they teach in their schools about Hindus and India in general. I am not a Hindu but I know that relations between Hindus and Muslims in India are a lot smoother than any other country in the world – a testament to India’s secure credentials. Please don’t club a failed state like Pakistan with an emerging world economy like India. If the Pakistanis don’t want to buy phones made in India, they can buy the crappy ones from their Chinese friends. There are lots of other places in the world to sell made in India phones.
yes i totally agree with Mr. Moskahn, the idea of Pakistan neglecting Nokia Handsets primarily because of the reason that they are simply made in India. When they still believe that the technology from India will hurt them and make them to fell Physiologically they are fare behind india. The world applause India in the growth of new science technology ( like software, nanotechnology etc ) i believe the real and wroth compatetion between any two countries should be in the line of growth and how it is basically useful the fellow citizens . the race, religion , languages and colour of the skin , the political differece should be away from this
