More quotes by Manmohan Singh
[Urbanization] is the inevitable outcome of the processes of growth and the processes of modernization.
Manmohan Singh
Protectionism is a very real danger. It is understandable that in times of a severe downturn protectionist pressures mount but the lessons of history are clear. If we give in to protectionist pressures, we will only send the world into a downward spiral.

I am convinced the entrepreneurial spirit of the Indian people, if allowed to express itself freely in the marketplace, India will be all right.
Manmohan Singh

When I became finance minister in 1991, I discovered that the wealth tax rates income - there was taxation on wealth.

The death of distance. There is hardly any middle class family in India who doesn't have a son, a daughter, a son-in-law, a brother, a brother-in-law in the United States. That is a very powerful new bond.
Manmohan Singh
Pakistan should be a moderate Islamic state. That it should be a prosperous country is in India's interests, and it is in the world's interests.

We have to walk on two legs. We have to create conditions in which manufacturing and services - the economy outside agriculture - move and move fast enough. And at the same time the working force that is available must have skills which will fit the kind of jobs which will be in demand.
Manmohan Singh
As the largest and most developed democracies of Asia (India and Japan), we have a mutual stake in each other's progress and prosperity.
Manmohan Singh
In a country where employment opportunities are not growing fast enough, the fear of change tends to be very acute.
Manmohan Singh
If you don't have a functioning financial system the world economy won't be revived. All the major economies have their responsibility to assist at a pace which is required to clean up the balance sheet of the banking system and to ensure that credit flows are resumed.
Manmohan Singh
With the revolution in information technology, with the revolution in transport technologies, I think just geography has lost its all significance.
