South Korea, here we come!

Tuesday, 6th July, I made a new resolve: to learn KOREAN! I opened todays Hindustan Times ("Jamshedpur Live" section and read this):

Steel City to get Korean 'sister', courtesy XLRI

"..a South Korean city, keen on getting into an agreement with Jamshedpur to forge a "Sister City" relationship, is learnt to have expressed interest in forging a fruitful relationship with ....Xavier Labour Relations Institute (XLRI).."

I often wonder if we didnt get the daily newspaper everyday in the morning, no one on campus would have any idea what XLRI is up to. WOW! Talk of local news! I wonder if this blog will seriously help in bridging the information assymetry?


Btw, for years we have been saying that XLRI is NOT Xavier Labour Relations Institute. At least not any more than B.P.L. is longer British Phyiscal Laborotaries.
