BRUCE BUTTONS BUSINESS TRIP TO INDIA

I was given an invitation to visit a customers' plant in India the first week of December. India was

not on my bucket list, but the PR person for this customer and I go back 20+ years. Their company,

BKT Tires, was having a big press event and inviting publishers from around the globe; they wanted me

to there and would pay my way. I was trying to find a way to say no, but couldn't come up with a good

excuse. Looking at the itinerary, I saw I would be traveling for 1!

days on the way over and back and bethere 3 days on the ground. This still didnt sound like fun at all! The trip over took 18 hours of flight

time and I think about 7 hours of layovers. I did have WiFi so I was able to keep Kelly updated on my

progress.

The trip was educational. The first day they allowed us to adjust to jet lag by taking us on a bus

tour around Mumbai to see the various historical places. I was amazed at the number of people and the

traffic there compared to New York City. 23 million people live in the Mumbai area and 7 million

commute in to work each day, primarily by train. We did visit the home that Ghandi stayed in while he

was in Mumbai, saw the Hanging Gardens and also one of their large out door laundries. Our guide told

us the caste system is still very much used and in many ways it keeps crime low. She said the lower-

worker class understands their place and doesn't envy the upper class for what they have.

Day two was the trip to their factory, a two-hour flight up the coast to Bhuj; then one hour by bus

to their factory. In Mumbai we saw homes that were some of the most expensive real estate in the world.In Bhuj and the surrounding county-side, we saw the exact opposite. I was amazed at how dirty

everything was- garbage all along the streets in the cities as well as the country. It made me thank God

that I live in America!

I did see a lot of their sacred cows and seemed to take an awful lot of photos of them.

In contrast to the poverty I saw on the way to their plant, the plant itself is one of the most modern I have

been in. BKT Tires is a major, global manufacturer of tires for off-road vehicles such as tractors, quarry

trucks, backhoes, etc. This is their newest and most modern plant. I got to see the whole process from raw

materials to finished products. Who knew there was an average of 49 different materials in each tire!

The trip back was interesting to say the least. On the way over, I was on United, on the way back

I was on Air India. No WiFi, very limited movie choices and if I wanted to listen to music, it was Indian!

I cant complain about the food though. I ate the Indian choices on the way over and back and thoroughly

enjoyed them.

When I arrived back in Albany, Kelly met me at the airport. Since I had been in the same clothes

for 48 hours, I knew I wouldnt smell very good, but she was a good sport and took me out to a steak

dinner anyway. To summarize my trip, India is a country of vast economic disparities, friendly people and

great food!
