I am back in India for two weeks.\u00a0 I am not very excited, but work is work.\u00a0 This time I am taking dragon air and make the transfer in Hong Kong.\u00a0 The new 777 from Air Canada is pretty comfortable, the seat is wider and it has power sockets.\u00a0 I can keep my laptop charged and use it for the whole trip.\u00a0 The wait for transfer is 4 hours, so my dad came to the airport and I went outside of the restrict area to have dinner with him.\u00a0 On my flight from Hong Kong to Banagalore, I think I am the only Chinese on the plane, except the air hostress.\u00a0 I can’t believe a flight flying out of HK, running by a HK airline has no Chinese passenagers.<\/p>\n
I touch down on the new Bangalore airport.\u00a0 It is much better than the old airport.\u00a0 From afar, it is pretty up to world wide standard.\u00a0 Although things still a bit shady when you look closer.\u00a0 Like the roof is not properly sealed, the door is kinda flimsy.\u00a0 There are no hawker trying carry your luggage and charge you a ridiculous fee.\u00a0 The custom has more counters, compare to only 2 counters in the old airport.\u00a0 No more tuck-tuck waiting outside trying to fish passengers Any how, it is still quite impressive.\u00a0 The new airport is far away from the city, so there a nice highway going into town.\u00a0 The highway is lit and has line on the ground.\u00a0 Other than occasional speed bump in the middle of no where and stop signs that everyone ignores, it is on par with newly developed countries like Taiwan or Korea.\u00a0 As I was praising the construction and though Indian has finally start getting better, the highway just ends.\u00a0 Yes, the highway ends abruptly and become a grave road right before entering the city.\u00a0 The airport highway is not connecting to any major road in the city, it just ends on the outer skirt of the city that goes no where.\u00a0 Ok, India is still India.\u00a0 It’s still not quite there yet.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
