This topic is posted in Orkut by Shruti , i thought it might be useful to people out here :-
Considering the majority of the people on this forum are from US/Pakistan and are cribbing about not being able to vote.... I have a suggestion.....
1. Why don't we transfer money to our favorite contestant's relatives/parents/friends who will ensure that the money that we send is used fairly.
2. Since there are various options of sending money to India, it should not be that difficult.
If your favorite contestant is already voted out….. send for the next best person
Eg:- One person (X) from US takes the responsibility of sending money to one contestants parents/relatives/friend. X- sends money on that individual's behalf (people who are interested) for that desired amount (temporarily). Other people in that country can send X- checks for the amount that they were interested in sending for their favorite contestant.
All said- let me be the first one to volunteer
I have already started collecting funds for Amit Paul and will be sending them in a couple of days. If anybody from US interested in sending money for Amit, please let me know.
P.S:- A basic level of honesty/integrity and trust is expected here
So people, instead of just sitting there and -
1. cribbing that you can not vote because you are not in India
2. saying "if you could vote X, Y, Z contestant would not have been voted out"
3. blaming people in India and saying " What are people in India doing", "Wake up Indians", etc you START VOTING !
P.S : I am not attacking anybody here personally.
