Xenophobia

Most the people of our country are suffering for xenophobia. Well this is not xenophobia in general, it is kind of curiosity about white skin. Still we are not habituated with white skin in our streets. I have an interesting finding about this. We, the south Asians are ruled by British for two hundred years. And they treat us like a slave and we treat them as our king. Eventually the white skin becomes the king. It is very natural that everybody is curious about their king and that why we are. We still could not erase them from our mind, from subconscious mind.

Most of our foreign currencies are earned by manpower. But they are not skilled so they are employed at very low category job in different countries either legally or illegally. They don’t get the proper behavior from their employer. They still maintain a emperor-slave relationship. We always feel like west is the land of opportunity. Life is different in west. We always try to mimic their lifestyle and so on. And the people of west got white skin, then why not we will be a bit more curious about them? Sometime we are so curious that we embarrass our guests. I found few of our guest’s blog; they depict their experience in their own way.

I had explored a blog, titled “The Never Ending Adventures of Auggie”. She is a girl, came here to teach in Asian University for Women. I don’t know where she comes from. I have read her all the posts, some are interesting, and some are offensive. You should go through her last post, “Still Alive”. Think about the thoughts in her mind. She is not special, most of the foreigner share the same kind of weird feelings about us.

We are going toward age of globalization. If we still possess this kind of thoughts in our mind how could we fight against them in international open market. Now time has come to change our thoughts, our way of thinking, we are not destitute anymore. We have to be prepare for the fight, the world gonna be an open market within next ten years, we have to get ready for that.
