Twice we have been to India, to its southern parts, in 2007 and end of
2008.
Both times we have been impressed by the colours, the friendliness of its
people, by the
poverty and by the daily problems e.g., waste, technical development, education,
corruption.
India is a great and most beautiful country and we hope that change
will give it a chance for a
good future, for its splendid nature and for the sake of its people.

Table 2: Political map and distances
Size of India = 2,973,190 km2
(e.g., Switzerland = 41,290 sq km, India is therefore 72 x
bigger than Switzerland. Germany roughly has 357'000 sq km.)
