Plenty of Westren companies operate all over the UAE. Mysore cannot add any more businesses there.
This is a smoke screen set up by these UAE officials, who want to expand their business in Mysore, when Mysore airport is ready to receive medium haul passenger jet aircraft like the A320. Last year, they along with the Keralite businessmen, asked Narendra Modi, who sopped over in the UAE, for daily non-stop flights from the UAE to Mysore. The purpose; For these Keralite business men, expanding their gold smuggling operation and Hawaala scams into Mysore and beyond, For these towel-headed Arab wallahs, who are in collusion with these Keralite businessmen, establishing a chain of night clkubs in Mysore, which they cannot do in Gulf States is the goal.
Notice that these so called delegations start arriving in Mysore, when the NMysore-Bangalore highway is ready, and Mysore airport expansion is getting complted to receive the passenger jet aircraft.
Currently, the Western companies, control all high level businesses-goods and services. Why need for poor goquality goods and services from India? The hidden agenda is so different. These towel-headed Arabs, know what thy want!!
