Don't Taint An Entire Industry

摘要

The confession by Satyam chairman Ramalinga Raju about accounting fraud exceeding $1.5 billion has everyone linked to the Indian software industry in a state of disbelief. Only a few weeks back, Satyam was considered one of the four pillars of the successful Indian software industry, known for its coveted Fortune 500 clients, innovative projects, capacity to train thousands of software engineers, and best-in-class certification of engineering practices. The fraud disclosure is certainly an alert call for any CIOs with exposure to Indian software firms. However, it would be shortsighted-and probably harmful-to taint the entire Indian industry based on the Satyam fiasco.
