Once upon a time an Indian minister was on a tour to France and his French counterpart invited him for a dinner. When the Indian minister arrived at the latter's residence, he was astonished to see that the latter was living in a very grand and luxurious bungalow and they had dinner in silver spoons and plates and all his bungalow were filled of precious antiques and other articles. He can not hold himself back and asked the French minister the reason for him living in such a grand style. On asking the French minister took him to a window.
French Minister : Do you see the river over there ?
Indian Minister : Yes.
French Minister : Do you see the bridge over it ?
Indian Minister : Yes.
French Minister : 10%.
2 years later the French minister was invited to visit Malaysia and now it was the turn of the Indian minister to invite him for a dinner. When the French minister arrived at the Indian minister's residence, he was stunned to see that the latter was living in a palace like house and they had dinner in golden spoons and plates and he had hundreds of servants and all his bungalow were filled of jewelries and costliest furniture, antiques and other articles. Now it was his turn to ask, "Dear friend how could you afford to live such a grand style?"
The Indian minister took him to a window.
Indian Minister : Do you see the river over there ?
French Minister : Yes.
Indian Minister : Do you see the bridge over it ?
French Minister : No.
Indian Minister : 100 %.

the Indian minister is the smartest after all... making 100% commission from local business dealings!
not bad.... the French minister must sells more scorpene and tornados, for more commissions huh!
SV. He is the inspiration.
The cost of building a kilometer of road in my country is sometimes 3 to 4 times more than your country, bridges included. You know now how the ministers are so rich and the others are so poor. I understand you have SV to match my country's ministers.
Traditions die hard man!
