One was sad - Kraft(makers of Tobler-one) have made a succesful bid for Cadbury @ $19.6 billion.
It not all bad news as yet, but I have a fear that Kraft will downplay Cadbury(raise price, bad distrubution) to promote its pet products. Akin to Lennovo (which purchased IBM laptop division and strangled the brand to death). I want my Dairy Milk and may lower profits fall on Kraft if it actualises my fears
The second was amusing - Junior ministers in the Cabinet seek work for Pay -
Contrary to my perception of junior ministers of being fund hoggers who feature on Enlarged newspaper advertisements for some random launch.{I beg exceptions- e.g. erstwhile Anand Sharma)
They actually want work, and went upto the PM to complain the lack of it!! "We want to learn and educate ourselves on crucial issues" to quote Mr. Scindia.
I am baffled to the say the least. Politicians finally realized they should 'educate themselves' about the latest issues. What about the ones which are blatant and obvious?
Answer- Not assigned to them.
Dear PM, make them full time ministers!!! We need such people to lead our country!
