my last words in advance if you feel this time it was the same thing. i don't know i guess it's a bit more tricky it's a combination of knowledge experience being aware of the current situation in the country and the world wide and intuition world added together all these things enable you to make the right move. india's labor laws promise full time workers a range of benefits from decent wages to paid holidays but those from the countries poverty stricken regions aren't always so lucky poets have found a legal loophole leaving many workers exploited through the fear of losing their jobs at any moment pressure to report. it's got one of the fastest growing populations in the world and getting india's eager young workforce into skilled jobs is no mean feat business tycoon mini shopper well thinks he has the answer a temp agency that trains and then touts its labor. was existed all over the world

temporary stuffing so good but what we've heard somebody of the five minutes for the last five years filling posts and bringing home a paycheck it sounds like a perfect match but for indian firms there are extra more dubious benefits india's tough labor laws make it hard to fire workers plus permanent staff get decent hours holidays and a living wage none of which apply to hiring temps it's a cost cutting gifts keeping employers smiling all the way to the bank india has always been a famous destination for foreign companies to outsource their work at its cost but a growing trend here is for indian companies themselves to outsource their work force to agencies like tim lee instead of hiring workers for themselves everywhere from malls to restaurants in india are using agencies to hire and manage their workers for the shopper while insists his workers do benefit vital training they are unlikely to get in india as many poverty stricken regions in the woman who film

scared of him because they were not as we were saying look there are lots of kids who actually are not trying to move too often ploy to use the law as a weapon in their hands to hit employers they're just warned an opportunity to get a job preassure either r t new delhi india. kareena latest business news. thank you carrie hello and welcome to our business update good to have you with me almost half of russia's say they're very confident of growth over the next year according to a survey held by pricewaterhouse coopers that's lower than this time last year when sixty percent predicted good times ahead their peers around the world though are even less optimistic only forty percent of them forecast growth in two thousand and twelve business r.t. spoke to david gray from the w.c. russia at the world economic forum in davos to ask where he sees the russian

economy heading. i think the level of risk in the russian market is greatly exaggerated but i've been there seventeen years and so i've seen ups and downs it's all the you can put it to as you put it the risk is exaggerated all the opportunities to make so if you want to put it in a positive light so the other two opportunities are so great that the risks need to be seen in that context and therefore i do think that the fantastic opportunities for domestic russian companies and also for inbound investment and we see international companies that have previously been russia coming into russia and existing ones who invested actually looking to expand their activities. entrepreneurs are surging around the world according to a new report by the global entrepreneurship monitor however that's not the case when it comes to russia over seven thousand people were surveyed in the country and the findings show that russia is lagging behind not only its brics peers but also the majority of eastern european countries during the course of

a has the details. there are almost four hundred million business men and fifty four countries and about a quarter of them are planning to add at least five new jobs over the next five years and we're talking about countries like brazil china australia and the united states now when it comes to russia the picture is pretty grim the number of new firms account for just five percent of business is that's compared to twenty five percent in china which places that at the bottom of the list of developing countries and russia is also slack and when it comes to internationalize ation with fewer businesses offering their goods and services to foreign markets. corruption. when you suppose should get more taxes from small business at this point all the taxes almost all the taxes go. for they're all liberal and then some of taxes go up as a subsidy it means there is no direct impact. from the development of business

and they should. get this money. very very pleased between the number of small businesses small businesses and their budget. this high level of has. the majority of small and medium sized businesses do not believe there will be a positive change and this is of course a bad sign for government plans to diversify the economy away from raw materials and make it less vulnerable to external financial songs. have a look at the markets or rises above ninety nine dollars a barrel as australia says it will join europe and iran or. the west or offset by concerns that iran could just drop shipping. asian markets closed earnings from higher on real earnings from apple and better than expected eurozone

of course system is just so there was a does more experience and i'm just i'm just appalled but that's allowed to go on america. we're eating this unfortunately because we don't know what's in it there's no labeling there for it being used like a board to experiment to be used as guinea pig. oh now we have more questions than we have had three guards in like. the world with the true science technology innovation called in these developments from around russia we've dumped the future covered.

fine turning problems. and coming full circle thousands of egyptians angry at slow reforms gather in central cairo countries marking the first anniversary of its uprising that toppled president mubarak this is what's happening in tahrir square right now almost thirty years a magisterial gets passionate today. as russians prepared to go to the polls to elect a new president on the fourth of march we talked to the surprise candidate one of russia's richest tycoons and the owner of the new jersey nets basketball team hear about mikhail prokhorov plans for russia that's next. mr crocker of hello and thank you for the time always glad to oblige you that you

really think you can be the next president and you're putting more money i always aim high and whenever a launch a project i'm always in it to win it or taking part in this presidential election is definitely the most important decision i've ever taken on me and i'm ready for a fight here aim high in other things you definitely should aim higher politics what a hero people often ask you if you're a crime and project but i'd like to ask you about something else you're very much you're smart you have the reputation of a maverick and you have a strong team how did you end up in a situation where no one believes that you are not a common project and keep snowballing with the news came that he wins it was not registered as a candidate straight away people said it's because they want proper up to get more votes in the palm of your truth i think almost anyone who joins the presidential race is automatically labeled as a kremlin project i will always want to know what it is it's a look i was

a successful and wealthy person even before the break up i don't rely on government contracts but we're talking about politics and politics is different when your support for people keep saying i can't be independent because i have a lot of assets but i had a most of those assets before police. what if the problem with people outside russia on the other hand don't really care if you're a crumb and project that say you make it to the run for your run against putin what would people outside russia know about you first they know you were taken then they know about the scandal in france where you were practically accused of being a pimp and also the fact that you own the new jersey nets why should the west take you seriously because of a press the point isn't whether it should or shouldn't be so it's up to me and my team to explain to people that my goal is to change russia i have a specific program for integrating our country into the international community and making and world leader of the whole world is changing the whole nations are having

a hard time of unless we change our country and develop it our relations with other countries will only become worse in the future this with let me let's talk about the u.s. over the four years of reset in relations russia and the u.s. have fallen out on quite a number of issues iran libya the spy scandal not to mention missile defense how would you build a relationship with america. the first thing i do you know i would abandon the whole idea of the west versus russia i think it's about time we learned to differentiate our relations with europe are one thing and our relations with the us are a different matter for the russian america have many things in common with the nuclear shield the fact that of both our countries are large and multicultural we face similar challenges say immigration issues even if the reasons are different to those in both countries have

a vast territory the only problem with america is that despite all that suffering we don't really have economic ties with the u.s. we have the russia's share in us trade is less than that of thailand and below one percent means well if we build a purely political relationship with. it proves to be unstable and often emotional the world is changing and the old system of checks and balances he's not enough no more i would suggest replacing nato with a penny european security system but that's what me that has suggested and nobody takes it seriously even the potential for the world is changing and that's why people don't take new ideas seriously but i believe there is no alternative but i think russia and europe should have a common market. as the next step we should consider introducing a new global currency based on the euro and the ruble you. can russia join the european union or us but i think we should actually make it ouster t.j.

go with them of course we'll need to consider how to organize this common market but strategically i agree with general to goal who said decades ago that we need a united europe from lisbon divided us talk of you or your car these days all you hear in the news is syria and libya there's also run down the right to protect syria and iran against the west for sure you don't oh yes i believe that russia being an international leader should go together with the rest of the civilized world but at the same time we must be given a clear guarantees that our national interest will not suffer to take iran for example at the let's say a war erupts there to morrow when there are any sarratt on our southern border right next to the caucasus or to imagine the flow of refugees we're likely to get through millions of people but the iranians surprised on the caspian scene and

that's where the volga river flows to safety so there is no way the sushi can be decided without russia and we must be present at the negotiating table and have a sane decisions regarding iran needless to say no one in the world would want to iran to have weapons of mass destruction what about syria why we're defending it so much it is not our neighbor. at the civilians national get in wolves aren't you a political interests if there is a war close to our southern borders this will affect our neighbors and the situation in the caucasus for there will be millions of fresh fugitives fleeing from war that will again all this will be happening glose to our borders we should be fully aware of that i wish through hard russia as a superpower. i believe our country has an important mission why virtue or history we should set high goals and achieve them by free of course but

we haven't been doing that lately so many people have lost the vision to put it in the past for we colonized vast territories like say bierria russia is a special nation of few that likes extreme challenges. there is a downside of course what i mean is that an individual people are considered insignificant in aren't sacrificed for the sake of a great goal. but that was before me what do you mean before you before you become president both locust on the because yes before i become president we need to change that completely with people should be at the heart of every grand aren't the taking of people should be the top priority battle with what is the first and most important change you will make if you become president and more people shirk my very first staff would be to ensure competition in every area equal opportunity means that time to an ambitious people should be rewarded based on their merits but

there should be a more equal opportunity to be there should be competition both in politics and in the economy as we should provide an outlet for people's energy currently there is no social mobility without question what if you make it all sound very nice but if you come to power you would have to make really tough decisions or just government spending reform the entire economy this is a my. much more difficult job than managing a company you built from scratch no matter how big it is plenty of you are absolutely right that one of a person who comes to power doesn't even have the experience of running a big company but that would be even the worse of course running in the real snicko is not the same as running the whole country but at least i have this experience there's also a strong team of managers who work both for me and in other companies over the twenty five years of my business career i have worked with hundreds of highly

qualified managers who could be useful to you in the new process so if we need new faces new ambitious and honest people who have already achieved success and who would like to change the world i understand them very well because i also want the same thing which i want to change my country in such a way that we could travel abroad and tell people that we live in russia and they would look at us with and being ok say that you're never afraid of anything will come of course to have fears yes avoid i'm a human being but i have doubts and fears but it's a matter of priorities. it's normal to have fears but you need to know how to overcome your fears if the future of our country's at stake and you are willing to assume the responsibility it is not a matter of having no fear it's a matter of realizing that your country scape a bill of doing this and that you can make a contribution to your country's development and well i'm actually very proud that

i'm participating in the presidential election and it's not everyone that can achieve this goal of so i treat this job and this choice with great responsibility for your story but it actually seems like a very spent ten is this is your this isn't something you've been planning your whole life or have you make decisions quickly but i guess the first develop within me over a long period of time and then when conditions are right when i get a kind of signal that it's time for a change so when i realized that i had to change something i turned to politics for back in april when i just joined their right cause project i knew it will there would be a release on blog in a square in the heart of prospect you know for that's why i went into politics but for me for doing you knew nobody got like i got the signal this happens to me always was never say i foresaw the crisis we're going to solve my as a certain events and this time it was the same thing is it intuition when you look

at the border i don't know i guess it's a bit more tricky it's a combination of the knowledge experience being aware of the current situation in the country and the world wide with an institution added together all these things enable you to make the right move with. but if you are a person polls indicate that the people of russia see putin as the next president if putin returns to the kremlin and it seems that he will what would that mean for the russian economy if you just nature in your brain it's nothing changes the posi of stimulus nation will continue and this will seriously undermine the competitiveness of our country we have to change because we are behind if we're really the nation we can defeat any four or any rival at the moment you know what we need to do a is we need to realize that we are at war with iraq but this is an economic war going on this is a war for the future of the need for

a slice of the global paey we need to get our slice of the pie and to a group of people often ask you who could be your prime minister if you could choose between political skin put in whom would you pick up as prime minister but that put purchase you were asking me to choose between two alternatives but actually you need more options than that in fact i don't think you can consider putin as a candidate for the prime minister's job at all when the you know he's been running the country for twelve years now and i think that's enough more than enough look at the history guards what our. look i know me fail on a personal level we used to have a lot of concept and he is a really effective as a manager what first he needs to be released and then we would need to meet and discuss things but of course i think we should take advantage of such people with their experience including their experience in politics or perhaps you would

release him if you were elected president of course i would pardon him immediately but thank you very much for the interview thank you. wealthy british style. has been tied to the sports guys. margetts finance scandal. find out what's really happening to the global economy in these kinds of reports on our t.v. . sets.
