For most Indians who, since 1991, got used to a steady barrage of opinion, expert economic advice and political re-education on the scourge of the public sector, the minor corruption, inefficiency and incompetence of sarkari babus in state-run enterprises ought to pale into insignificance in the face of everyday stories from the US of what the private sector and free enterprise can do even when the going is not just bad, but critical.

On June 18, 2008, the Telegraph reported that opposition to the Indo-US nuclear deal in the USA would be strengthened due to the judgment against a Singaporean of Indian origin to 35 months in prison for his role in a conspiracy to illegally export electronic components to Indian government entities engaged in the development of ballistic missiles, space launch vehicles and fighter jets.
