India is an up and coming nation because the demographics are very favourable. India has more than *50*% of its population below the age of *25* and more than *65*% below the age of *35*. It is expected that, in 2020, the average age of an Indian will be *29 years*, compared to *37* for China and *48* for Japan; and, by 2030, India's dependency ratio should be just over 0.4. /gary On 19-03-12 06:45 PM, o1bigtenor via talk wrote:

I must complement Boeing management for the huge sums that they save on salaries by shifting software engineering to India. Gleaned from the URL below I take it that the average Boeing software engineer in India makes 26,930 rupees/month, which is about $500 Canadian and that makes an annual salary of $6,000 per year. My hats off to management for achieving these enormous cost savings.
Not to be left behind in an uncompetitive position, our Canadian companies, too, are making great strides in reigning in costs by shifting work offshore.
A number of years ago I read that India is generating more engineers per year that the rest of the world combined. How good they are - - - - that's another question.
