- Summary:
- This program profiles three executives who typify the changing style of business in East Asia and India: James C. Louey, senior executive with KMB in Hongkong, the world's largest bus company; Dr. Jannie Tay, CEO of the Hour Glass, a retail chain based in Singapore that sells watches throughout Asia; and Brijesh Wahi, managing director of Cellstream Technologies, a software services and engineering company based in Bangalore, India. Explores how the notion of propriety of appearances is being replaced with Western frankness, and traditional caste systems are yielding to wealth as the key determinant of status.
