Stormy weather
Now it is chaos in Tidaholm and the rest of the south and western parts of Sweden. There has been a storm, almost like "Gudrun".
Some people do not have electricity at home. Like in India every day.
Telephones don´t work. Like in India every day.
The mobilephones don´t work either, because they need electricity. Like in India every day.
The trains are standing still. Like in India every day.
People has died because of the nature. Like in India every day.
With that I don´t mean that the electricity, phones and trains never works in India. Of course it does. It does in Sweden too. But the last days Tidaholm has been more India-like.

Everything u have mentioned was 50% correct, two decades ago......."MEN INTE NU "
1,Practically speaking we have electricity 24/7 except for a few hours or more (depending on which area you live) in a week which is due to maintanence work by the Electricity dept.
2,The real fact is INDIA has one the world's biggest telephone networks & it ranks no.2 in mobile phone users(if I am correct).IT SHOULDN'T BE A SURPRISE IF ONE COMES ACROSS A MOBILE PHONE IN A BEGGARS HAND.
3,In the history of Indian Railways the trains were never still, may be they are slow compared to Swedish X2000 but they run very well.(INDIA HAS THE LARGEST RAILWAY NETWORK IN THE WORLD WHICH IS AN UNDENIABLE FACT)
4,Of course people have died in the past because of nature, its because of India's position geographically on the world map...Nobody can be blamed for that.
These are facts for everybody's kind information & I wish tons of SNOWFALL soon in Tidaholm.
OTHER INTERESTING FACTS ABOUT INDIA
1,Very Fast developing economy in the world.
2,There are more than 200 languages spoken thro' out India of which 15 are official. HINDI is the National Language & ENGLISH is the common official language.
3, Inventors of the number ZERO ?0?
4, It gave birth to three religions BUDDHISM, JAINISM & HINDUISM
5, IT-Super Power (Information Technology)
-VE FACTS ARE
1, CASTE SYSTEM which you can find no where in the world. It is only prevalent in HINDUISM even today, I wish the International community should give more importance to this. Countries like Sweden which gives lot of importance to Human rights should do some thing about this.
2, CORRUPTION
3, Lack of CIVIC SENSE by the 80% of the public
4, POPULATION in one way
These are some but there are many other facts.
