Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.

12. Adopted the American form of government;
embraced the American dream
spoke the American language
and were content to be called "little brown
Americans".
13. Decades after the US granted the
Philippines its independence in 1946, many
Filipinos still believed in and actively
campaigned for the Philippines becoming the
51st state of the United States.
14. American teach us through:
the mass media,
the arts,
social,
business
and political interaction
15. o has been relegated to a college elective
o and to private gatherings of wealthy
clans of Spanish descent.
16. Why has English become so easy to
learn and so easy to use in the
Philippines?
17.
18. Adults are constantly teaching their kids:

20. In the Philippines, it is an affordable item, a
skill that can be used to increase one's position,
respectability and marketability.
In most cases, the better one's ability to
understand and use English, the better one's chances
of career advancement.
21.
22. The Filipinos' skill and cheap labor are in
demand, yes, but so is their command and
comprehension of English which makes it easy for
foreign employers to tell them what to do. English,
after all, is a global language and, luckily - some say
unluckily - Filipinos managed to unravel this code
quite early and easily.
24. Filipinos are not Americans. Why then do
we continue to dream their dreams and
speak their language?
25. Much as our purists and nationalists wanted to erase
all traces of American colonial influence, they knew that the
language, rather than the dreams, was less difficult to delete.
Or so, they thought. Like the US military bases in the
Philippines, English had become a symbol of the subtle but
strong dominance of America. It took a strong-willed
Philippine Senate and the eruption of Mount Pinatubo to
figuratively and literally bury the US bases in ashes.
Obliterating English is another matter.
26. In a setting where education is one of the
lowest budget priorities, where teachers are among
the lowest paid professionals, and where the
systematic translation of English to Filipino has
never been given serious thought or considered
important, the shift from English to Filipino ended in
confusion and frustration.
28. The government-approved textbooks they will
study illustrate the problem. A passage in one for
eight-year-olds reads:
“The dog rolled on the floor
so fast and fell on the
ground. There he laid yelling
louder than ever. The dog
yelled on top of his voice.”
29. A book for 11-year-olds advises, mysteriously:
“Just remember this acronym —
DOCSiShQACNMN—to make it easy for you to
remember the order of adjectives in a series.”
31. Teachers have been flunking English for years.
In 2004 only one in five teachers passed the English-
proficiency test.
32. Call-centres complain that they reject
nine-tenths of otherwise qualified job

because of their poor command of English.
33. 1. Tell me something about yourself.
2. Why should we hire you for our company?
3. How do you handle work-pressure?
4. What has been your most significant
achievement?
5. How do you see yourself five years from
now?
6. What are your goals in life?
34. English as a subject has suffered from lack of
money, along with public education as a whole.
Some Filipinos also blame the introduction in
the 1970s of Filipino, an artificial national language,
as the medium of instruction.
36. What many Filipinos miss is that English can
also be used as a key to understanding ourselves.
English, after all, does not belong to America. If we
accept it with grace and use it with wisdom, it can
belong to the rest of the world.

Editor's Notes
It has often been said that in the Philippines, America was able to do in 50 years what Spain was never able to accomplish in 300 - make the Filipinos understand and eventually accept, with affection, their masters.
Right from the start, when Spain claimed the Philippines as its colony in 1521, it was clear how the Spaniards thought of their mission. They called the natives indios or Indians, and set out to redeem their savage and ignorant souls with religion - Roman Catholicism.
later, the indios had wholeheartedly embraced Catholicism, but just as wholeheartedly rejected Spanish rule. By this time, only the Filipino rich and educated elite were literate in Spanish. Ironically, from this same exclusive set came the founders of a secret society that pushed for reform and independence.
By this time, only the Filipino rich and educated elite were literate in Spanish. Ironically, from this same exclusive set came the founders of a secret society that pushed for reform and independence.
In 1898, after a mock battle at Manila Bay, Spain ceded the Philippines to the United States. Although there was also a bloody but short-lived Philippine-American Revolution, it took a shorter time for the Americans to pacify and befriend the Filipinos.
A major reason is that the Americans were once our colonizers and continue to influence our everyday lives in many ways. Another reason is that for most Filipinos, English is not seen as a foreign language. In a country of 60 million people who speak no less than 8 languages, English is a second language. In some areas, English is more popular than our official national language. For a select few, it is even a first language.
t is not unusual to see Filipino children responding to and speaking English words long before they learn these in school.
simple adjectives (dirty, good, bad)
polite expressions (please, thank you, I'm sorry),
and simple questions (What's your name? How old are you?)
The effect on pupils is plain to hear. Few years ago, the country winced when the 17-year-old winner of the Miss Philippines World beauty contest failed spectacularly to answer in English the usual questions posed by judges in such events.
This is lowering the chances that the outsourcing industry will succeed in its effort to employ close to 1m people, account for 8.5% of GDP and have 10% of the world market by the end of 2010.
