"So a Dubai Based Business man, born and educated outside India, whose wife is a non Indian, and does not have a permanent address in India, Does not know how to write in Malayalam" requesting to elect him as the representative of Thiruvananthapuram

His vision about Trivandrum goes like this... 'Thiruvananthapuram should earn the twin-city status with another European city. Twinning means cooperation and sharing of resources in realms such as cultural, educational and other development aspects for a thorough change' http://www.shashitharoor.in/new-articles?actiontype=showArticle&articleId=9

So that is the Idea....share our resources with a European city

The severe drinking water shortage must be addressed, bringing in support from the Centre and where possible from private foundations http://www.shashitharoor.in/my-vision

Though it is one of the last item in the list of his visions, thanks for including this..Mr . Advisory memeber of Coca-cola India foundation

He continues his vision as

I pledge that my office in the city will be kept open six days a week to receive observations, complaints and suggestions from the people of Thiruvananthapuram

So Sunday is off ??... Ok let us ask people to request leave to their Hunger also...as Hon MP is not available to hear their issues

The statements above(in black) is what he says about himself....and the blue letters are a few comments on it..

Let us see what others say about him..

"After interrupting the national anthem, Tharoor urged the audience not to stand in attention like the traditional Indian style as it was an imitation of the British style and asked them to place their hand on the chest and look upward the way Americans do when they sing the Star Spangled Banner"

Read this http://www.indiaresource.org/campaigns/coke/2009/openletter.html along with his vision on drinking water scarcity

In http://www.huffingtonpost.com/shashi-tharoor/an-obama-moment-for-india_b_163601.html he wrote

"Yet the next national elections, due before May 2009, may produce a plausible Dalit contender for the job of prime minister - Kumari Mayawati, the female chief minister of India's largest state, Uttar Pradesh."...

So he feels his party is not going to take power in 15th LS.??

What do you think?????
