MLA,
Mr. M. Sivasankaran, together,
say that traders are the first backbone of this country. Because they
come to pay taxes to the government, we have to have business, we have to have business, we have to have education, we have to have
jobs, we have to have a
good government to create both of these.
Then the
rulers should come and understand what they need and what
they don't need and give it to them in a good way and make
it easy for them. If you take our Puducherry, as you saw in that video, we came from here to Rome and did our business. At that time, when the kings of our Tamil country were there, whether it was the Pandya kings, the Chola kings, the Pallavas, we shaped our world. The data that Greeks have also intervened in their history is also called the Silk Route.
From here, we did business with all these places, our China, our Russia, etc. Today, it was not
many
how have our lives changed today? If
you have seen it,
in 1910, the Puducherry economy
came somewhere. When I came to
Dubai and Singapore, I
came to Dubai and it was a desert. I
grazed a camel. There were all the
sheikhs, but today they call the same road Sheikh
Road. There was only one building there. If you
look at it today, the world's largest
building has come, and it's called Sheikh
Road. It's like this. If
you look at Singapore, Malaysia has
come and said, "This is a slum, we do
n't want this."
Singapore is a country that has been segregated. The same
Prime Minister who is the leader of the League of Nations, the
Prime Minister, will
definitely bring about a drastic
transformation in the country.
So why are we here today?
Now, if you take Puducherry,
we saw in 2006 that 800 acres came, the
government came and took the land for business and
industry to be built as an industrial park, but
but
so far nothing has been done in that place.
As my brother Angalan said,
JIPMER came to build a college and a multi-
specialty hospital with a research
center, but they have
canceled the agreement.
All this has come and
development has come to a union territory. I don't
know how they can say all this. Similarly, if
you look at the students here,
50% of the people are
saying that there is no employment. If you look at the educated youth,
30% of them have come
from other states and gone to Karnataka or Tamil Nadu or Hyderabad to
do a job. Similarly, we have been forced to a situation where
businessmen come and start their first business.
If we want to do a single window clearance, we have to
apply online and apply
immediately for a 30-day
Andhra Pradesh visa.
I was also at the Indian Today conference in Andhra Pradesh. He was
Chandrababu Naidu sir, and his son
had come. How did you come
and ask that anchor question?
How can you alone bring about such a big
change? Your
father came and took 5,000 acres from your mother and
wasted it to build such a big airport
. But then, what he
said came true, and our father came to our mother and
told her she was stupid. They take 5,000 acres and
make it an airport. But
looking back today, that airport is one of the important reasons for the growth of that state
. Not only that, but if
they come here and you submit an application, the
merchant comes and
you submit an online application,
it doesn't come in 45 days,
so if some department
comes and gives clearance, it comes
automatically and it
comes naturally, as if it's cleared.
So tomorrow you do
n't have to be in charge of any department. Here in Puducherry, we
hear that people are suffering today, saying that even getting electricity is a big problem. My aim is to
overcome all this suffering and create
a better state in the world, Puducherry.
That is not only mine, but also the aim of all those who have come to depend on me. When
I go abroad to
study, I think, why did we
finish our studies and settle here?
Then a thought comes to mind, why did those who
were with us
go there and settle here?
Who is going to do this to our people who are suffering here?
That was the first impulse that came to me, and
that's why we traveled towards it
. If you look at everything here in Dubai, there's
a park for everything
. There
will be a private park for industries. There will
be a separate park for electronics. Now, if you look
at the signs, you will see that furniture
alone will come to 500 acres or 1000 acres and
will do this and that alone. Now, if we
do all that in our town, from our
small manufacturing businesses
to large industrialists, we can
provide end-to-end parking facilities in one place, so that people can
come there and you can get both at a cheaper price
. When that happens, the
goods will be cheaper for the buyers
. Similarly, Pondicherry
is a town with one of the longest marriages in India. The
bridegroom is coming from the National Highways. If we
hide such a big advantage and
make our Perusa here in an industrial park, people
from other states will definitely come here and
buy all the goods
. Their ratings will also
be low. People here will also
get employment opportunities. Similarly,
everyone here is taking the IT company Maina and
saying that they are looking for work in Bangalore, Hyderabad, and Chennai. Today, when we go to
many land cities in our town,
everything we see
is closed.
They say they built a sports facility. They built a
sports store for four or five years and have
kept it closed and never opened it until today.
Even if you take a factory ABT mill like that, you have to
start working on it. Or at least put it to
some other use
. And
all the important places within the city
are in vain. If we
take a place like this and turn it into an IT
park, there will be no need for our
people to go out of the state and work.
work. [Music]

If they work here and
get paid,
our people here will
spend their salary in the shops here
. The economy here,
the trade with Puducherry here, is
increasing. Now, when they
are here and there, whether it's
rent, food, or a
place to stay, the
money they spend on that is all they need
. It's
a very expensive item to bring home
. This type of thing is important
because it's not like there's no potential
right now. Today, we have educated youth who can come into the world and turn a desert into an oasis
oasis
. My friend
came from Vietnam with a car company called Winfast. They had come from India and were
looking for a place. They
came to me and asked for help. I
told my friend that
I would introduce myself to him. He
looked at Karaikal, looked at us in
Gujarat, looked at Maharashtra, looked at
Tamil Nadu, looked at
Maharashtra, looked at Gujarat. He said, "I will give you a
free piece of land and
I will provide you with whatever facilities you need."
Why did they make Tamil Nadu sooze? The
youth below us came and
made everyone read everything even when Kamaraj was the leader. That education is what our
politicians are helping us with today, and that
that
free food scheme that he gave to our mother is what has made
people study today, and
today they are all great people. Today, when people
come to compete with other states, we have
studied somewhere and are at our great
level. So,
even though there is no government today, the fact that our people are educated is an
important reason why everyone's
livelihood has changed today. So
what did they do in the end? They
came to Thoothukudi and selected it because
they had some advantage. There
was a port in Thoothukudi, a sea port,
so they finalized it for that sea port
. We tried to bring it near
our Karaikal port, no matter how much trouble I had
. Since
Since
we didn't get any support here, we had to drop it .
.
Today, 500 people came and
gave them jobs worth 1,000 rupees.
Today, they started their factory.
Today, they came and manufactured almost all
kinds of things. All kinds of things were
given to them. So
we asked why many companies that can come to us like this and make us come like this don't come to us like this. What
they said back then was that the main reason was that
the Bislan Factory was here and there
was a lot of rowdiness when it came.
They threaten anyone who asks, they threaten and
ask the common man. If the common man asks, how can
an industrialist
come to Singapore and Dubai in the first place?
If there is so much here, first security is needed. Every time I
look at it, it seems
like a murder every week. Every time I look at it, it seems like a murder.
So far, if they have given any answer to those murders, there is
no answer yet. Last week,
we saw a murder and all the
businessmen were involved in
it. All the businessmen fought and tried to stop it,
but until now,
this kind of murders have been happening
. If things were to continue like this,
how could a foreigner or
a foreigner
come here and set up a factory ?
?
So, things like this come, the government comes, comes
before,
comes before the single
single
window clearance, comes before the bank
My request, which is difficult, is that the government should come and
fulfill the demands made by the businessmen's conference. They
were asking me for financial assistance for this registration, membership registration, and for that, I will
give 300 for 5000 baht and start it by giving that registration piece.
