In the Bata shoe factory where I worked for a year, most of the top posts were occupied by Indians. This gentleman Kararia is a highly qualified person with vast experience. Hence his elevation to CEO is not surprising.

我在Bata鞋厂工作了一年，里面的大多数高层职位都是印度人担任。卡塔利亚先生是一位经验丰富的高素质人士。因此，他能被提升为全球CEO并不奇怪。

What a great performance by the Indians abroad, around the world. Every Indian is proud of their achievement. But we Indians in India face unchecked corruption all around in the country and need to root out the pandemic of corruption.

在国外的印度人表现多出色啊。每个印度人都为自己的成就感到骄傲。但在印度，印度人面临着无处不在的腐败，需要根除蔓延的腐败。

One one hand it is natural for us to feel proud that yet another Indian is capable enough to be appointed to lead a global multi national company. However, on the other hand we should also feel ashamed that India doesn't have enough opportunities for super talented and capable people, who are snapped up by multi nationals. So now these talented Indians are hel American and Swiss companies to make money. Sad to see the Brain Drain

一方面，我们会为又有一个印度人被任命领导一家跨国公司而感到自豪。然而，另一方面，我们也应该为印度没有足够的机会给那些被跨国公司抢走的超级人才而感到羞耻。所以现在这些印度人才正在帮助美国和瑞士的公司赚钱。人才流失令人难过

After rea a fortune over decades with their base in Kolkata, West Bengal, Bata moved their HQ to Gurgaon. They built a massive HQ building in Gurgaon, and eliminated hundreds of good paying jobs in Kolkata, West Bengal. As a die hard Kolkattan I am boycotting Bata. And if you care for Kolkata and West Bengal, you should too.

几十年来，Bata在西孟加拉邦的加尔各答赚取了巨额财富，随后将总部迁至古尔冈。他们在古尔冈建了一座巨大的总部大楼，并在西孟加拉邦的加尔各答裁掉了数百个高薪岗位。作为一个加尔各答人，我抵制Bata。如果你们喜欢加尔各答和西孟加拉邦，也应该这么做。
