FDI in Retail....Beware!
previous post
The Government seems to be merrily going about maneuvering and preparing the gullible public for introducing FDI in Retail.
The area which should cause the maximum concern for the public is the Government's determination to introduce FDI in Supermarket and Food Products Retail.
The Government as well as the other political parties who are not in the Government - whether allies or opposition - appear to be oblivious of the Gobal scenario and the dangers posed by the enormous concentration of power that is taking place in the food related businesses and the concerns it is creating world wide. If the Global picture is indeed within the knowledge of the Government, it is apparently choosing to ignore the same for some reasons.
Presented below is a small listing of Websites that bear careful study, before the country jumps headlong into something that it cannot undo later:
