Thinking small makes car a big success

HAMISH MCDONALD
BARGAIN WHEELS: The Tata Nano is India's cheapest car.
After introducing its now famous so-called US$2500 car, the Nano, to the streets of its home country, India's Tata group is preparing to take the stylish little four-seat bubble of steel and glass to the world market.
Within two to three years, says the group's chairman, Ratan Tata, the company will launch a vamped-up, slightly wider version of the Nano in the United States, fitted with modern safety features such as an advanced braking system. An electric version may come even sooner.
''It will be a full car,'' Tata says. ''US$7000 is still an attractive price.''
While bringing compact size and value to mature Western markets, Tata is also taking luxury motoring east.
It is discussing a joint venture to manufacture Jaguar sedans and Range Rover SUVs in China, already the second-biggest market for these top-end brands acquired from Ford four years ago.
But the ability to think small may turn out to be Tata's unique selling point, even though it's one of the biggest business groups in a country destined to be among the biggest forces in the global economy.
Indeed, thinking small is helping the whole country leap ahead, as in the ultra-cheap packages that have put mobile phones in the hands of small farmers and street peddlers, and the newly-developed $35 tablet computer, the Akaash (meaning ''sky''), that the government plans to hand out to school students.
Bringing his baby, the Nano, into the world has been a fraught process, however, as Ratan Tata outlined in a talk with the Sydney Morning Herald in his office at Bombay House, headquarters of the group founded by his great-great-grandfather, Jamshedji Tata, in 1868.

The Freshman: Chasing monetary prosperity isn't `success'
Posted: at 7:25 am
Last week I attended a reception for John Kluge Jr., the son of the late Columbia University alumnus John Kluge Sr.
John Kluge Sr. once donated $400 million to the university, the single largest donation for financial aid made to any American university - a donation of which I am a direct benefactor. My financial aid package comes from his endowment, so it is no exaggeration to say that I wouldn't be attending school here at Columbia without the extraordinary generosity of John Kluge Sr., which reduced the student debt I would have to take on for college to more affordable levels.
At the reception, John Kluge Jr. turned out to be a very nice man, and they played a video of his father formally donating the large sum back in 2008. In this video, Columbia University President Lee Bollinger called his gift "both a testament to his personal history and values and a challenge to all of us to do our best to live up to our nation's ideals."
Hearing Bollinger's words, I couldn't help but wonder if, by receiving John Kluge Sr.'s aid, I hadn't simply taken on a different type of debt.
The call to take our education and use it to help the less fortunate is not new to me. One of the most common recurring conversations among my friends includes the anxiety around our seemingly conflicting goals of achieving success and helping others. Lots of ambitious students come here with dreams of starting or joining a nonprofit, or else a business with a
I've personally seen how students' pursuits of success completely changes their priorities. In the same way that students come here looking to start a nonprofit, many students come with strong interests in learning about less "marketable" skills. However, the culture of success- chasing and fear of bad job markets often pigeonhole these students into drastically different college educations.
It's not uncommon to see English majors succumb to the seemingly job-friendly economics or for linguistic majors to go premed, or for film majors to excessively over-exert themselves acquiring a second (and more quantitative) major. And who's to say these are bad choices? After all, the fact is that there are probably more job options available to the film major with quantitative skills than the one without them.
Nevertheless, I can't shake the feeling that there is something fundamentally disturbing about the necessary insinuation that students who graduate with anything other than STEM (science, technology, engineering, math) degrees have nothing to offer society - or even the job market.
Seeing how the pursuit of success takes students away from their initial goals of helping others or studying what they love, I can't help but be skeptical of these students' working definition of "success."
This raises the question: What is success? Where is the "you are now successful" finish line, and how do you know when you've crossed it? Is it determined by how much money you make? Call me naive, but I really don't buy that. While the goal is always to make at least a comfortable living, I don't think you can call a man successful simply because he can afford his weight in gold.

Helpers needed for ball

Personal growth, skills development and personal accomplishment are just a few of the rewards you will receive if you volunteer your time for the Goldfields Childrens Charity Ball.
While many people in Kalgoorlie-Boulder will be donning their ballgowns and getting ready for the event on Saturday, March 24, organisers are in desperate need of at least 20 volunteers to help out on the night.
Volunteers coordinator Kylie Lampros said it took a lot of work to make sure the ball rolled along smoothly.
Its been really quiet this year on the volunteer side of things and we desperately need people to greet the guests, direct people to the auction, act as cashiers at the auction, help display the auction items and we need two experienced floor managers, Ms Lampros said.
Kalgoorlie-Boulder Volunteer Centre coordinator Janet Campbell said all volunteers would need a police check.
We need volunteers for many different places but the Childrens Charity Ball is approaching very quickly and people can register with the volunteer centre right up until the day before, she said.
Darren McBride, who has been volunteering with the ball for six years, said he enjoyed helping the community.
The Childrens Charity Ball is a very worthwhile cause and I get a big buzz seeing 900 people enjoying themselves, Mr McBride said.
