What is sold on Indian roads

I loved this post.  And here is my favorite part:

Ear Cleaners: Though not a part of the South Indian road market, these people are quite a force in North India.

Temple Priests: In many roads of India, temples
awkwardly jut out into the roads (they can’t be demolished as they will
cause an uproar in religious India). Priests either belonging to
neighbouring temple or dedicated to that temple start early morning’s
ablutions for the Gods. It is also common to see small temples for
Virgin Mary.

Ooh. London Labour and the London Poor, highly condensed and rendered into blog format.

Tyler,

I don understand wazz so fascinating about the blog.. I think itz just reiterates why India is one of the largest consumer market and why all the developed countries want a piece of it. Most of the goods sold in indian roads are chinese right now(and trust me u get much more sophisticated things than ear cleaners on roads here). Ne ways I won’t be too amazed if developed countries also start promoting their goods the same way just to withstand the chinese competition

Fear not, O’ Westerners… the Indian retail industry is quickly building out antiseptic and sterile chains of everything. So, Wal-Mart is not far behind and you can look forward to the same boring monochromatic retail experience you live throughout your lives :-(

New homeowners are most concerned about leaks, someone to 抓漏grasp Henmomianzai leakage, a good new home, can not find a good 清潔公司cleaning company to clean up clean. That day I had bought a 機票ticket in Paris, a house was found leaking in the morning, quickly hit a 租車taxi to find out who repair, really bad
