More roadblocks thrown up by India Government over Starbucks Entry

Starbucks India Logo?Starbucks India Logo?I saw this Starbucks article at Digitial Inspiration and from its source at The Mint which highlights how difficult it is to bring foreign brands into India.  Unfortunately, the short sighted politicians don't think more than one step ahead because other foreign brands see what's happening to one of the World's most well known brand and think well if they are having trouble we certainly will.  This is bad for India and bad for Indians.  Why is it China is opening its doors to foreign retail while India keeps throwing up roadblocks?

India can't keep it's doors closed to foreigners or have a antagonistic approach to them.  The world is embracing India labor and technology yet India is not showing its willingness to cooperate in return.  Competition is good, in fact competition will make India better.  There's nothing to be afraid of, just grab a latte and relax.
