Dear Victor, Thank you for insight. Given your seniority, I would think you were present at the time of the independence of India. What is the bone of contention between India and Pakistan? Why wasn't the "doubt" setlled there and then by a plebiscite which was been promised but not yet realised? So who or what caused the paranoia since then? How come some countries are "freer" and more "trusting" than others? If you have the answer, then you will know why the paranoia. That goes for the ridiculous visa rules too which only India has, and then India cries foul when other countries try to play likewise. Regards, Gabriel.
