. “They have taught us what we know. Peter is the consummate salesman and Nair, a creative genius”

It would be foolish to write-off Star just yet. It has reigned the Indian tele-tube for years at a stretch and is still leading. Sure, they seem to be in a mess right now, but don’t you forget, these are the very guys who introduced many successful formats to Indian television and marketed them like nobody’s business. Only if they find that one gimmick which clicks, Star India will be back at the top of the heap. Well, it’s just a question of a yet another path-breaking format that does a KBC for it. Who knows, Shah Rukh Khan’s thinking cap might be a big help!

Tortillas

In March, during President Bush’s trip to Latin America, the one heralded achievement was a deal with Brazil on joint production of ethanol. But Bush, while spouting free-trade rhetoric for others in the conventional manner, emphasized forcefully that the high tariff to protect US producers would remain, of course along with the many forms of government subsidy for the industry. Despite the huge, taxpayer-supported agricultural subsidies, the prices of corn – and tortillas – have been climbing rapidly. One factor is that industrial users of imported US corn increasingly purchase cheaper Mexican varieties used for tortillas, raising prices. Mexican economist Carlos Salas reviews data showing that after a steady rise until 1993, agricultural employment began to decline when NAFTA came into force, primarily among corn producers – a direct consequence of NAFTA.

The “free trade” regime drives Mexico from self-sufficiency in food toward dependency on US exports. And as the price of corn goes up in the US, stimulated by corporate power and state intervention, one can anticipate that the price of staples may continue its sharp rise in Mexico.

“Electrolux is not a commando company where we telefax orders around... We want our employees to take initiatives.”

Hans successfully streamlined the company’s plethora of 50 diff erent brand names by launching a programme to restore the company’s own brand name Electrolux. He elucidates, “Electrolux wants to be a global brand name, but it also believe in adapting technologies to suit customers in diff erent regions. We don’t live in ivory towers.” For instance, the company has top loading machines in the US and front loading machines in India & Europe. By employing best management practices, Hans was able to launch strong cost control measures, close down ineffi cient factories and shift production to locations like Latin America, Eastern Europe and Asia, where labour costs could be reduced. And today Straburg claims emphatically, “Electrolux’s cost base is second to none.”
