Comments on: The Indian Education System – 6 http://www.deeshaa.org/2007/05/07/indian-education-6/ Sun, 12 Feb 2012 05:44:27 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.9.2 hourly 1 By: Artagnon http://www.deeshaa.org/2007/05/07/indian-education-6/comment-page-1/#comment-99403 Artagnon Wed, 09 May 2007 18:27:56 +0000 http://www.deeshaa.org/2007/05/07/indian-education-6/#comment-99403 My thoughts concur with the previous comment from 'does it matter'. For every failure in a country, it's very tempting to point fingers at politicians and bureaucrats. De-licensing is something you have already discussed and I think it's something that most people would agree with. But, what finally is the ultimate solution? What can address the three issues pointed out in the above comment? My thoughts concur with the previous comment from ‘does it matter’.

You've been beating around the bush for quite some time and yet have to come to the key points: - What, in your mind, is the solution? - What are the barriers to achieve it? - What are the factors that will determine its success or failure? - What are the new key issues that will emerge in the new system? For e.g., 1/ Capacity building, where will teachers come from, 2/ Universal access: Markets have failed the poor (pharmaceuticals) - how will the poor be served by a free-market education system? 3/ How can a free-market solution help break the cycle of poverty and existing power relations? Sorry if you find my language pushy, but I have gone through 6 posts of tautology of your rhetoric on the need to liberalize, tautology and yet to read something of substance.

I understand that the telecom and education sectors are not the same, but what had prompted them to open up that industry? And can that be replicated here?
