Mein Kampf A Hit In India?

So your company is moving jobs to India huh, well here’s a little tidbit they probably do not share with you, Mein Kampf, Adolf Hitler’s autobiography, is one of the top sellers in India but not because it is interesting to them to learn about history but instead because business students are looking to Germany’s former dictator for inspiration. If you can believe this, and many of you who are Jewish may want to know, Indian students see the book Mein Kampf as a self-improvement guide while other students see the book as a management strategy guide. Can anyone tell me what type of guidance can be ascertained from this book and how can any of it be considered a self-help book? However, this is the culture we are helping to support by sending our jobs and services to India so when we find ourselves in the future in serious situations were we disagree with the culture our company operates in we should not be surprised. How many Americans, Europeans, or Jews want to do business with a bank or computer help desk where the workers are dedicated to the teachings of Adolf Hitler? Sohin Lakhani, owner of Mumbai-based Embassy books recently stated in an interview that, “Students are increasingly coming in asking for it and we’re happy to sell it to them.” The yare happy to sell it to them, is that what you want to hear? Demand for the book is so high in India that many publishing houses cannot keep up with the demand. How much longer can we allow our so-called American businesses to outsource or jobsource our work to countries who have little concern or care for our well being let alone where they are terrorists, racists, and followers of Adolf Hitler?
