Success Despite Government, Courtesy Jugaad | Swaminathan S. Anklesaria Aiyar | Cato Institute: Commentary: "No less than 93% of Chinese businessmen say the main reason for their spectacular success is network connections (guangxi), especially with government officials. Indian businessmen, however, have succeeded despite the government: 81% say the main reason for their success is jugaad, the ability to find innovative way round prohibitive rules and institutions."

Success depends on dealing well with government?!?

People want a wide-open Internet, and they're in a position to demand it as long as there is competition."
