How to break into the Indian Market
The article ‘How to break into the Indian Market’ by Bryan Borzykowski gives vital information, which can help medium and small sized companies, penetrate into new markets. Furthermore, it has vital information regarding why India is an emerging market that people need to do business with, in order to achieve maximum profits (Borzykowski, 2012).
In the article, various concepts and terminologies have been implied or used. Also, some of them are similar to the ones, which I have the read in the course text. There is mention of the Gross Domestic Product, and this refers to the revenues that are earned by a country. In this case, India has a 7.7 per cent GDP growth, which means that the country’s economy is doing extremely well (Borzykowski, 2012). Also, in the economy, there are various sectors such as agriculture, fishing and defense, among others. They all contribute in different ways towards improving the economy of a country through the various services and products that they produce. The terminology demographic usually refers to a certain group of people who are located in a particular market.
In order to tap into the Indian Market, Mr. Kenny sent some of the people working for him on trade missions. This refers to business trips, which are meant to ensure that one becomes familiar with the environment where they hope to carry out their business. It means meeting with key officials or stakeholders, who will give advice concerning how to effectively carry out business in a foreign country. Mr. Kenny also wants to ensure that the Indian market contributes towards making his growth strategy for his company become successful. Growth strategy refers to the goals that have been established and have to be met as well as achieved, in accordance with the established objectives. In order for Mr. Kenny to penetrate into the market in India, it is key that he obtains help from trade associations. These are organizations that assist companies or businesses by providing them with financial assistance and advice, among other issues. It is a fact that India is an emerging market; therefore, it has valuable opportunities for investment (Borzykowski, 2012).
The article has provided an insight on what needs to be done if Mr. Kenny wants to succeed in the Indian Market. Moreover, the Indian market is one that is sure to be easy to break into as there is a conducive environment for doing business. Also, the country has a large population of one billion people, and they will assist in purchasing the products, which Mr. Kenny is offering. Mr. Kenny has also identified the needs of the target market, and this means he knows what products will suits them most. For example, many Indians are now eating seafood, and the technology they use to catch the fish is outdated. Therefore, Mr. Kenny’s company has a product, which can satisfy the wants of the Indian population (Borzykowski, 2012).
The manner, which Mr. Kenny, is handling the matter is commendable, as he is interested in knowing a lot concerning the Indian culture and how they conduct their business. The recommendation given by experts in the article should be looked upon by Mr. Kenny. They recommend that Mr. Kenny seeks assistance from trade associations, organizations, as well as the government. Also, he needs to have a business partner, who is based in India and in turn, he is sure to break into the prospective Indian Market (Borzykowski, 2012). In conclusion, this article is extremely informative as well as helpful for people who want to break into the emerging markets.

A stable government is the solution for the famine in Somalia
This paper seeks to give an analysis on how the recurrent famines in Somalia can be solved through having a stable government. Somalia is experiencing the worst drought in about 60 years, as they try and struggle with the civil war. Around 3.7 million people are affected by the drought, and many lives are being lost. The children of Somalia are the ones, who are suffering greatly, as a result of the famine (Dixon, 2011). According to the United Nations, malnourishment levels among children are at 30%. UNICEF has confirmed that in every six minutes, a child dies in Somalia, due to famine. The country is extremely insecure, thus making it difficult for the United Nations to deliver food and aid.
A stable government needs to exist, so that the security issue is addressed, and a solution found. Most Somalis have to travel dangerous land in search of food, not knowing if they will be alive, before they reach the food. Most of the Somali people are finding their way into Kenya. It is estimated that around 1800 people enter Kenya on a daily basis. These numbers are extremely high and they cannot be all catered for by the Kenyan government. Since the Somalia government is supporting the activities of the United States, the group known as Al-Shabaab is causing a lot of problems. Somalia is guarded by militia, who are in support of the existing federal transition government.
The Somali government ought to become stable, so that the international community is able save the people who are starving. Aid in the form of medicine, water and food, is needed urgently (Qasim, 2011). Those working in the United Nations and transitional government should work together if the problems of the famine are to be solved. A strategy must be set up by the transitional Somalia government to eradicate famine, as this should not be taking place in the 21st century. The warring parties in Somalia, who are all fighting for power, are the cause for the famine tragedy .Instead of focusing on the needs of the citizens; they are only interested in matters concerning power.
The Somali people have for a long time suffered due to the civil war. In the year 1991, President Siad Barre was over thrown, thus becoming a failed state. There are no human rights in Somalia, as well the country being extremely poor. The worst hit regions by famine are Lower Shebelle near Mogadishu and Bakool near Ethiopia. The government is the root cause of all the problems affecting the Somalis (Allison, 2011). The existing Somali government has not done anything to control its population from exploding. The result is that the food resources in Somalia cannot fully cater for all the citizens.
Currently, famine occurs as a result of people not receiving food supplies, which they need to receive. In all the famines, which have occurred in the world, 90% have been in Africa. Politics has been the lead cause of the famine in Somalia, which is as a result of the malicious government. The other reason is that the Somalia government has not come up with effective policies to govern the country (Arab news.com, 2011). Politics in the country has brought about nothing but conflict. Famine would not be in Somalia, if there was a responsible, united and stable government. Unfortunately, the government has left it self be affected by Civil war. There are at least ten warring parties who are all competing for power. Thus ignoring what is important as the expense of its people. Somalia should not be facing famine.

“Stopping by Woods on a Snowy Evening” by Robert Frost
The poem “Stopping by Woods on a Snowy Evening” by Robert Frost written in 1923, pictures a setting of a scene with wood and in a snowing evening that is hauntingly barren and pastoral. The great works of Frost were seen as a gift and his poem stopping by the woods in a snowing evening is presented and viewed to be a musical poem with the application of great rhythm and having a direct touch that enhances the calmness and assuring nature of the poem(Heitman, 35). The analogy of the poem presents two varying messages that could be liked with the blues music whose rhythm would be sly and charming inspiring smiles on the audience even though their messages are sad and dread. The calm rhythm used by the author suggests on how everything was alright s the message of the words showed how everything was not alright. Through an in-depth analysis of the poem this essay shows the major theme of the poem that is the central concentration of fulfilling promises and accomplish duties of life without distractions presented by the pleasures of life, thus showing the theme of duty and responsibility that is generated from the last stanza, ‘The woods are lovely, dark and deep, But I have promises to keep’ (Heitman, 35). Fulfilling promises and accomplish of duties presented in the poem is a lesson that is projected for the audience especially being adult thoughts. The lesson shows that no matter how one needs to stop and need to stay for the pleasure of nature promises have to be met as well as responsibilities. The idea of accomplishing and fulfilling duties and promises is developed throughout the poem by the use of literary elements such as repetition, rhythm, personification, mood, euphony and the title of the poem.
Most people have often assumed the poem to be a contemplation of death with most of the power based on the line and notion of the author that the woods were “lovely, dark and deep” (Frost, 13). The poem developed by frost was open to interpretation and with the bittersweet complexity of his life, it was assumed to show the complex mix of the transcendent and the tragic in the human experience (Heitman, 36). The author shows the theme of fulfilling promises as well as accomplish duties when he states that before he can rest, he “had miles to go” (Frost, 15&16). Analyzing the poem title ‘stopping by woods on a snowing evening’ shows how the author could not help but be arrested by the beauty and lovely sight of the woods which elaborates on how nature provides a respite from the society and work demands. The author, however, even though allowing himself the small respite from worldly concerns, he pulls himself together nudging himself to move on. The theme is developed clearly in the concluding passages that elucidate the central theme of fulfilling promises and accomplishing duties through the following passages. ‘The woods are lovely, dark and deep. But I have promises to keep. And miles to go before I sleep. And miles to go before I sleep’ (Frost, 13-16), these last sentences to reveal that he was aware that he had miles to go as well as emphasize the responsibilities that are pressing through the use of repetition in the poem. By analyzing this last stanza, the author shows the use of regular rhythm that ends with ‘deep, keep, sleep and sleep’ capturing the conflict between human and nature, as well as showing the differences between the promises and obligations that adults have in life. The main point of the poem is shown through analyzing the traveler from an adult perspective, stopping in woods to admire beauty until when he decided to restart his journey when he realizes his duties. The second stanza analyzing shows use and application of personification whereby the author personifies the thinking of the horse when it stands as if it understood the owner’s urge to stop ‘My little horse must think it queer’ (Frost, 5). Imagery is used to develop the setting of the poem helping the audience to picture the woods, how dark they were and snowy showing the power of nature that made the traveler stop despite having responsibilities ‘Of easy wind and downy flake. The woods are lovely, dark and deep’ (Frost, 12-13). The story applies euphony when the author takes us through the woods that ought to be scary but the pleasing sound provides calmness and comfort that the traveler wishes to stay without the troubles of the world. “the only other sound’s the sweep / of easy wind and downy flake” (Frost, 11-12) lines of the poem sets the artful mood of the poem which is relaxing that as well shows the realization of the traveler that he has to move on. Parini as well quotes Robert Penn Warren in support of the theme whereby “A native takes, or may take, a place for granted; if you have to earn your citizenship, your locality, it requires a special focus.” (Heitman, 36). this shows that in the poem concentration is required to fulfil the promises and accomplish responsibilities as well.
Developed with many themes the poem “Stopping by Woods on a Snowy Evening” by Robert Frost was open to interpretation by the reader. The literary devices used in the poem, however, analyses the central theme of the poem to be duty and responsibility that shows on fulfilling promises and accomplishing duties one needs concentration. Use of repetition, rhythm, personification, mood, euphony and the title of the poem emphasizes on the important lesson the poem intends to articulate which is everything is alright as compared to the interpretation of the poem meaning death. The regular rhythm that is steady throughout the poem shows that there is nothing odd from the ordinary in the poem at all. The poem tends to show the realization and the self-awareness the traveler had on his duties as compared to the argument that the author was contemplating death.
