Also, our indian community here encouraging their kids to learn indian traditional dances like bharatham and musical instruments. Also, during our indian festival celebration, these kids are performing in stages and getting shields as a token of appreciation every year. This practise making us to feel that our future generation will not divert away from our tradition and culture even they live abroad..

Hi..I am living in Brunei for the past 2-1/2 years. Initially i thought we cannot have our lifestyle here. But later i understand that our indians have a practise of inviting other indian friends to their home for events like "Gayathri Mantram", on the day all join together in traditional dresses and chant Gayathri Manthras followed by a indian traditional dinner. And its a good one for kids to understand our tradition and culture. Same thing we do on all 9 days during Dasara / pooja time.

I am a NRI investing in the Health care sector. In Mangalore, My patients are suffering considerably as the routine Controlled Drug renewal form, the Deputy commissioner of South Kanara refused to do his final initial for the past 3 months, which is uncalled for. Probably he wants to get his share of the NRI investment. God help Modiji's slogan 'MAKE IN INDIA, INVEST IN INDIA, WITH THE HELP of these IAS Officers.

I am a NRI investing in the Health Sector, as I am a Doctor. My patients are suffering immensely as the Deputy commissioner of South Kanara, Mangalore is not willing to sign the routine renewal application, until probably, he receives his share of NRI investment. It was properly recommended and sent to the Deputy commissioner 3 months ago, he is refusing do final initials. God help Prime Ministers slogan 'MAKE INDIA SLOGAN ' with the help of such IAS officers. Indian corruption is unique.

9. If you have time on hand and patience, invite them along to Indian when you visit India and take time to explain Indian culture. I am emphasising on introducing others to Indian culture as it makes it easier for NRIs to follow Indian culture as then it will be more accepted.

7. You can learn local accent (good you should), dress like them (nothing wrong if that is what is required for the occasion), socialise and anything else…..still you need to understand that you need to do what you need to do as far as Indian culture is concerned. 8. NRIs, invite them to your festivals and community functions, take time to explain and make them feel part of it. The more you involve them in Indian culture the easier it is for you to follow as well.

6. Many NRIs have a MISCONCEPTION that if you teach children Indian culture, they cannot live abroad or they will not be accepted by locals as they do not fit into their culture. Please NOTE, they accept genuine people ONLY and individuals who are confident. They do not expect people to act something that they are not. If you don’t know your background, how can you be confident?

4. Even after 4 or 5 generations you will still be called Indian origin and you need to learn to live with it and for that, it is important to know your roots, your culture and what it means. 5. NRIs, if you do not pass on your culture to the next generation, you are making them ORPHANS as far as their identity is concerned.

1. NRIs learn about your culture for real, not superficial ritualistic drama. Know in-depth what Indian culture is and what it means. 2. Share it with your kids as they grow. 3. NRIs need get out of the confusion, whether to follow the culture of the country you live or Indian culture. Please note they are not MUTUALLY EXCLUSIVE. You can follow Indian culture and still adapt to local culture and be part of the community. 4. Even after 4 or 5 generations you will still be called Indian origin
