These ratings do not matter, if you take out the ratings for any country the ratings look similar, India is no exception !
Fun story. I know this German girl who lived in India for 2 months and know more about India than me. Long conversation where she lambasted Hinduism for treatment of women and widows specially given her local informers and 2 months of experience.Again....they won't hate you / be racist to you...but yeah there is a backdrop of "condescension" mostly through christlamofacist brainwashing.
To thme India is like Africa .... it's just too backward and all it's problems would be solved if not for Hinduism... Add to that our adarsh liberals that come here and perpetuate this idiocy.
Actually I have a pretty good idea of who Germans hate and do not hate .... I have a good grip on European politics... and the ****only**** part of the spectrum not ***explicitly*** anti-india is a little center right, that too because they have bigger fish to fry.Fun story.

Long after in random conversation she told she was brought up in Protestant culture and hated dancing in Church that she witnessed in some church in Africa. She is not religious now but thinks Church is about values and stuff!! So, I could connected the dots.
Just a fun activity. Defend Hitler in front of Germans and look at their faces!Actually I have a pretty good idea of who Germans hate and do not hate ....

The Left absolutely detests India.
What should indians do is that IN ANY CASE ... UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES do NOT sign an FTA.
Let them get desperate.

Yup. Most people think Indians are piss poor backward savages. I'm the exception ..... Oddly enough in the professional/technical world every one respects india.... especially for IT n $hit.
may i add my perspective to all thisFun story. I know this German girl who lived in India for 2 months and know more about India than me. Long conversation where she lambasted Hinduism for treatment of women and widows specially given her local informers and 2 months of experience.

Don't think their facial expression would matter much, because if it did, they'd have done a lot more to stop their Bundeskanzlerin from covertly and not so covertly supporting the Nazi spawn in Ukraine.Just a fun activity. Defend Hitler in front of Germans and look at their faces!
Although I think French are not that anti-India. May be because they do not know so much about India!
@roma- I completely agree with you. But when you connect poverty with religion, it is easier to see the deep seated bias.may i add my perspective to all this
the stuff foreigners dont like about us are the very same things we dont like about ourselves .....or rather the other "half" of ourselves
i.e whole bunch of indians jumping into a dirty river and consider that to be some type of cleansing , the filthy state of many parts of new Delhi even today in the 21st century ( as aired and debated on arnab goswami's program recently , just afew days ago ;- Debatehttp://www.timesnow.tv/Debate-Squeaky-clean-for-them-why-should-you-bear-stink/videoshow/4477207.cms: Squeaky clean for them, why should you bear stink? )
also , of late the news of the uncivilised way women, including even tourists are treated , in the past i used to hear about the irrationalities of the airport customs , to be fair i dont hear about that nowadays ( dont know if it has improved ) , the overwhelming poverty causing a lot of discomfort, unclean toilets and poor maintenance
it's those things which would irritate anyone . not just foreigners or any particular nation
actually indians especially parsees are given preferential treatment over say chinese ?
my suggestion is that before complaining or tar getting germans or spanish, first let's all of us clean up india and then we will find that we are very much liked all over the world
Airports have improved, however, bad things happen. Recently AAI and CISF got into a fight at one of our airports.may i add my perspective to all this

my firm suggestion is that instead of complaining or targeting germans, first let's all of us channel that energy to clean up india
and we will find that on the contrary, we are actually very much liked all over the world
Sir, tell me , whose job is it to do the de-linking ?@roma- ........ But when you connect poverty with religion, it is easier to see the deep seated bias.
As @Rowdy said they are the biggest believers in their media spewed theories. What else can you expect.Don't think their facial expression would matter much, because if it did, they'd have done a lot more to stop their Bundeskanzlerin from covertly and not so covertly supporting the Nazi spawn in Ukraine.
The same people who de-link Islam and terrorism.Sir, tell me , whose job is it to do the de-linking ?
I think it is not only Germany, but much of Europe. The media has a stranglehold on the population. If something is repeated again and again, people will begin to believe it.As @Rowdy said they are the biggest believers in their media spewed theories. What else can you expect.
sorry roma ji ..... I will disagree....yes there is a problem due to all these that you said...they not only damage our image but take a toll on our economic productivity etc.Sir, tell me , whose job is it to do the de-linking ?
The problem is that these countries are way to homogenous...and the respective government exercises too much control in peoples lives.I think it is not only Germany, but much of Europe. The media has a stranglehold on the population. If something is repeated again and again, people will begin to believe it.
im surprised by your replyThe same people who de-link Islam and terrorism.
something must be wrong with the mirror .....blame it on the mirrorI think it is not only Germany, but much of Europe. The media has a stranglehold on the population. If something is repeated again and again, people will begin to believe it.
What am I seeing? Is there a hidden meaning to your reference to the mirror?something must be wrong with the mirror .....blame it on the mirror
I do not find such negativity with French. May be because they did not hire Turks for building their economy.im surprised by your reply
with that kind of a reply , please expect the negativity from foreigners to continue
I actually proved, with historical/logical claims that Germans owe their prosperity to hitler. fun times.Just a fun activity. Defend Hitler in front of Germans and look at their faces!
Although I think French are not that anti-India. May be because they do not know so much about India!
The French got their fair share of immigrants from their former African colonies. However, they do not seem to have much of a problem from that demographic.I do not find such negativity with French. May be because they did not hire Turks for building their economy.
Germans are too invested in Islam (indirectly through immigrant Turks) and hence the molly-coddling. I see a pattern and that is what I mentioned here.
which france are we talking about ? they absolutely hate those folks which you referred to ! afaik Indian are much preferred !!!The French got their fair share of immigrants from their former African colonies. However, they do not seem to have much of a problem from that demographic.
roma ji no one is claiming that they are treated badly....we are discussing political responses.....All indians are poor uneducated and backwards except my one friendlet me clarify a bit more
this is an important topic as it affects almost all of us
i live in europe
here, current impression is the same as it was in the uk decades ago
namely that there are two types of Indian , the very rich and the very poor ....add to that one more class, the computer technos
if you walk into a restaurant , they size you up very fast as to which group you belong to ....unless you yourself behave badly, you will be treated the same as any rich person .....so what's the problem ?
