Topic Reading-Vol.1622-9/19/2016

Dear MEL Topic Readers,
India's richest man offers free 4G to one billion people
It seems that India is becoming a source of new initiatives. The most cost effective alternative solutions have been provided in automobiles, heart and eye surgeries, and tablets and smartphones in order to create and meet the demands of the so-called bottom-of-the-pyramid population. Yes. While the country’s GDP as a whole is ranked seventh, the per capita GDP ranks below 140th in the world, which means there a lot of people who can’t afford to get the things and services that are enjoyed in other developed countries, including its arch-rival China.
This time, one of the richest persons in the country initiated a break-through Internet service that can be enjoyed by those who haven’t gotten any, little or slow connection to the Internet. As the price is too low, none till the end of the year, competitors are left no choice but to slash the prices or upgrade the services.
Enjoy reading and thinking if this new initiative is more philanthropic than economic.
