I hope Manmohan called up the Japanese PM


The Asian Challenge in the FIFA WC 2010 has come to an end with Japan’s exit on penalties.  I hope our PM had called up the Japanese PM to offer his support and regret at the performance of the ‘blue samurais’

We (India, that is) need the support of Japanese in the select Nuclear Suppliers Group (NSG), our bid for UNSC permanent seat and the Japanese are also the 3rd or the 2nd largest foreign investors in India.

And we need to further our knowledge on electronics, gene research and nano-technology, where Nippon leads; not to mention the Japanese advanced space programme – the solar-sail spacecraft IKAROS.

As they say ‘misery shared is misery halved’ and Japanese always remember these niceties.  Hope the bureaucratic bumbler has some diplomatic flair.
