    Blaming is the feature, nature and weakness of humans. It is impossible to fulfil and satisfy the unlimited human wants and needs.

    Still, you have a good opportunity with authority in hand. If you wish we can be the global leader in the implementation of a new concept. Perhaps it can result in a rapid revolution in the land transport sector. It is not a new innovation, but a mere change in the movement on wheels.

    Being the gravity force of the earth is free and abundant, we can save 80% of our fuel consumption, by using the huge burden on wheels (commuters and goods) as a free pushing force (and even generate energy to a certain extent). It also will eliminate health hazardous pollutions and drastically reduce costs of vehicles and transport facilities.

    While the mobile is on high sky progress, why we suffer with a lengthy automobile evolution, by carrying the weight on wheels as infants, since a couple of centuries?

    Let us stop or reduce feeding vehicles with expensive fuel and start feeding the millions of people, who suffer and die due to hunger and thirst.

    Our lord has encouraged us to perform wonders with faith. And he did perform miracles because of the faith of the people (and not because he was the son of God, with the authority to do anything and everything).
    Let us believe and get it done as our committed assignment and praise God.

    Oscar Saab, Please do something for direct Kuwait - Mangalore flight. Jet Airways is killing us with their extremely high airfare and plus we have to spend at least 12 hours for just a four and half hour journey. It is getting too much, especially when you have small kids on your shoulders! Now you are in power, please do something.

    Nice to see the beautiful couple with Papal blessings
    Let us pray His Holiness Pope blessings help us to move on roads with smooth, comfortable and safe journey.
    Let us hope to see a world of difference with a rapid revolution in the land transport sector, creation of enormous job opportunities for our rapidly growing academics, improvement in healthcare and education and reduction of our poverty level.
    Think different, support the concept change, to enjoy the achievement and success
