What is India contribution to the Philippines?
India has influenced the Philippines in nearly all aspects of life.
The Philippines has been trading with India as far back as the Sriwijaya Empire, which started in the 7th century. With this trade came influence in language, music, and writing (Baybayin is based on Sanskrit; a quarter of Tagalog is of Sanskrit origin). Some common words are guro/guru (teacher), mukha (face), Likhain (to write), and putong (turban).
India also brought the spread of religion, including forms of Hinduism, Buddhism, and Islam (brought by the Majapahit Empire). The pre-historic Filipino creator god "Bathala" comes from the Hindu god "Brahman." Many of the customs in India and the Philippines are similar also, such as feeding the dead and dowries.
Many people think that before the Spanish arrived, the Philippines lacked culture. But it had plenty of it, girl. Parts of the Philippines was even ruled by kings (Rajas) and the central region of the Philippines, Visayas (where my dad is from), is supposedly named after the last Filipino king, Srivijaya.
Yes, the Philippines was heavily influenced by the Spaniards. But that isn't the whole story, and only recently are people starting to acknowledge that. There is a lot of archeological evidence that needs to verify a lot of things we don't know about the precolonial Philippines, as Spain has done everything in it's power to eliminate pagan religions (destruction of temples, violent getting pagans to convert, etc.).
India has an extremely fertile landmass which results in uncontrolled agriculture/food production. Regions of the world in high fertility have uncontrolled population growth whereas regions with low fertility and hostile climates such as Canada, Alaska, Scandinavia have very small populations and extremely less to no population growth.
How stable is the political environment of India?
The political stablity of the political environment of India differs in what type of perspective you look at it. At the moment it is at the middle, so it could end up collapsing or prospering, depending on how the government and people may evolve later on.
One perspective is that the India government is generaly stable. Although corruption runs deep within the government and there is a stark diversity of politics, the government is generaly stable, the economic boom is raising living standards and regional stablity, and the government is in no threat at current or in the near future to collapse.
Another perspective however says that although the India government may be faring well at the moment, the numerous political divisions in the government, a country even more diverse than America, and surrounded all by hostile neighbors, half of them, which are at war with India at the moment, will eventually bring the Indian government down. Evidence of India's not to far collapse include all of eastern India, over 2/3rds of India's population, which is ruled by hostile communist regimes whom have in many times in the past threatend to secede from the Union, and sometimes by force, and the major tri-country struggle over the States of Jammu & Kashmir between India, Pakistan, and China. In addition, many people in the south still resent and fear the Federal government which is dominated by the Nothern Indians who are ethnicaly diverse from them, because they feel they are imposing Nothern Indian Culture on them. The unity of India is so qeustionable, that its difficult to EVEN define India as a confederation. Corruption, Diversity, War, and Radicalism will eventualy cause the India government to collapse.

How do people in Chembakolli travel to school?
Many of the children in Chembakolli don't go to school to help their parents in farming and so on but some children do go to school and are educated. These children go to the school in Gudlar (which is the closest town) but this means that they do have to walk a long way. However halfway to school they are transported by jeep. This school actually has a lot more facilities than one would expect. They actually have computers, a library and a large hall. There is still some hope for Chembakolli children. I am not sure if there is a school in the actual village of Chembakolli.
Is election in India free and fair?
1. Candidates and parties with a lot of money may not be sure of their victory but enjoy a great and unfair advantage over smaller parties and independents.
2. In some parts of the country, candidates with criminal connections have been able to push others but of the electoral race and to secure a ticket from major parties.
3. Some families tend to donate political parties, tickets are contributed to relatives from these families.
4. Very often elections offer little choice to ordinary citizens, for both the major parties are quite similar to each other both in policies and practice.
5. Smaller parties and independent candidates suffer a huge disadvantage compared to bigger parties.
Name first four satellite launch by India and in which year?
Currently the most powerful Indian launch vehicle in operation; the first development flight of the GSLV took place in 2001. The program's benefits have been scrutinized due to frequent payload cutbacks and delays. The indigenous cryogenic engine for the GSLV's upper stage was tested in 2007. ISRO has reconsidered the effectiveness of the GSLV for the needs of the 2000-2010 decade and began development of an indigenous and new heavy launch vehicle, GSLV III. The latter is not related to the GSLV-I/II and will be based around the proven format of liquid main stages and two solid strap-on boosters. It will resemble the Ariane 5 and other modern launchers and will have sufficient payload capacity for manned spaceflight.. The inaugural flight is scheduled for 2008.
Chandrayaan 2008: ISRO intends to send a small robotic spacecraft into lunar orbit mounted on a modified PSLV. It will survey the surface of the moon in greater detail than ever before and attempt to locate resources. Countries, including the US have expressed interest in attaching their own payloads to the mission. ISRO and NASA have an agreement to carry two NASA probes as a payload.
AVATAR Scramjet: This is a long-term project to develop a reusable launch vehicle (RLV) restricted to the launch of satellites. Theoretically, AVATAR would be a cost effective launch vehicle for small satellites and therefore a commercially competitive launch system. A scaled-down technology demonstrator is scheduled to fly c.2008. Recently ISRO successfully tested a scramjet air breathing engine which produced Mach 6 for seven seconds. ISRO will continue research related to using scramjets in RLVs after 2010.
ISRO has entered the lucrative market of launching payloads of other nations. Prominent among them are the launches of Israel Space Agency's, TecSAR spy satellite, and Israeli Tauvex-II satellite module. The CARTOSAT-2, launched on the July 2006, carried a small Indonesian payload of 56 kg.
Leveraging its expertise in cryogenic technology to design Hydrogen fuel cells to store and handling of hydrogen; ISRO teamed up with Tata motors to develop a prototype hydrogen passenger car for Indian market, expected to hit road by end of 2008
On November 15, 2007 ISRO achieved a significant milestone through the successful test of indigenously developed Cryogenic Stage, to be employed as the upper stage of India's Geosynchronous Satellite Launch Vehicle (GSLV). The test was conducted for its full flight duration of 720 seconds on November 15, 2007 at Liquid Propulsion test facility at Mahendragiri, in Tamil Nadu. With this test, the indigenous Cryogenic Upper Stage has been fully qualified on the ground. The flight stage is getting ready for use in the next mission of GSLV (GSLV-D3) in 2008.
On April 28, 2008 ISRO successfully launched 10 satellites in a single mission further boosting it's capabilities in space. [2]
This includes 690 kg CARTOSTAT-2 and another 83 kg mini Indian satellite, IMS-1; and eight other nano satellites made by various universities; and research and development institutions in Canada and Germany offered at a subsidized price as part of a goodwill gesture by the Indian Department of Space.
What type of resources are abundant in India?
