Pushpa Moorjani | | Sindhi society is the compromising lot and they happily embrace the culture and the customs of the city they live in. I think, in twenty years from now, it will not be possible to identify a Sindhi from a crowd, because he never speaks Sindhi, and hates Sindhi cuisine and never attends Sindhi functions.
If you are still alive, after 20 years, how would you recognise a Sindhi? what would you tell this Non-Sindhi-18-year-old youth that he is actually a Sindhi? How would you refresh his memory?

Rajan Bhavnani | | Well, I agree with you.
But then life has a way of throwing up answers to your questions. In a practical way. I can only guess that amongst some of us the strong bond to our homeland will get across to the younger generations and there might be this "return to one's roots" longing.
In the meantime let us take quiet satisfaction that we are truly an international community.
I stayed in Jakarta for four years and was pleasantly surprised to see quite a few Sindhis married to Indonesians. Indonesians maybe muslims but the very basis of their religious inclinations are based upon Sri Ram;s visit to Bali! So it was a harmonious mix, which sadly is getting jarred today by fanaticism!
So all is not lost!
