solutions for existing problems

this post is just to remind and draw attention towards the basics and build on that foundation by informing of innovative solutions to existing problems which are also mentioned here:

1. Problem : Infrastructure is under a great strain to meet the demands for oil security, roads are inadequate, ports are not really being modernized, power situation is horrible Solution : The spending has to be done by government and private companies and people alike and merelip service is just not going to satisfy the ordinary people as everybody wants results and sooner or later.A difference has to made and progress needs to be seen A cartel that sort of fix prices for coal and ntural gas will be formed and if the money comes from governments and individuals after a little grumbling well so be it..These things have been seen earlier and we all know what the cement companies and oil companies did earlier in the name of progress and coming together to improve technology and all that crap.
   
2. Power: Technology and companies exist that can reduce costs of energy.Sooner rather than later cartels. Solution: Use innovative services for minimizing the cost of power by really helping out people who are doing a lot for energy conservation-these are basic in nature:for public lighting find out about the use of LED's.These indeed consume a lot less power than ordinary lights or CFL's.Architects have to be told to design energy efficient buildings that use less energy (see www.thevospad.com for a model).Computers need to be switched off when not in use. (see www.verdiem.com). Using a motor of the correct size for the application will reduce consumption by almost 20%.Compressors and pumps which have variable speed drives are available today or they can be made-we need to use the same. Transmission losses in India can be reduced by changing over to 400 KV transmission voltage.

I want to end here by saying by hook or crook we will end up paying the government or private players the money which we can rightly save and keep as our legitimate income-private people use asset recovery agents and we all know the type of people they are and the governments just tax the citizens and do not act adequately in the interests of the people.There will be more on these problems and a few innovative solutions will be suggested however all solutions should begin with a will to implement the same an for this a change in the attitude of people is need and for this ideas have to be presented and executed well-the best idea is to increase the morale of a failure by facilitating and making the failure believe that it is possible to do wonders and then even if the failure is ditched after sometime (making the failure a true believer)-the fire in the belly will be there to make a difference and that is going to get a lot of innovation and will spread it to ordinary people-the process will become irreversible.
This is what the cricket series played between India and pakistan have done and people to people contact has indeed increased by leaps and bounds and no person is in a position to reverse this trend.The warmth between people seen on both sides of the border during the test and one-day cricket series had to be seen to be believed and reflected a gfenuine desire for peace and cooperation in helping the region grow.
More will follow on these topics later.
