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.

I must complement Boeing management for the huge sums that they save on

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.
