More quotes by Manmohan Singh
So outside agriculture, in manufacturing and services, we must create a lot more jobs.

Manmohan Singh
Terrorists had the advantage of surprise.
Manmohan Singh
If the economy is growing fast, there is call for a distributing income from the rich to the poor to to put in place social safety nets.
Manmohan Singh
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
I have to create in India a macroeconomic environment where the employment in aggregate can go up at a handsome rate. Once that happens, people losing jobs in one sector will not mean that they will become perpetually unemployed. From one sector, they can move on to other sectors.

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.

China is very important. The future growth of China, China's influence is bound to rise.
Manmohan Singh
The Chinese have certain advantages. The fact that it's a single party government. But I do believe in the long run the fact that India is a functioning democracy committed to the rule of law. Our system is slow to move but I'm confident that once decisions are taken they are going to be far more durable.
Manmohan Singh
India happens to be a rich country inhabited by very poor people.
Manmohan Singh
We all know the epicentre of terrorism in the world today is Pakistan. The world community has to come to grips with this harsh reality.
Manmohan Singh
I do recognize that India has to be the center, the hub of activity as far as the knowledge economy is concerned.
Manmohan Singh
Capitalism historically has been a very dynamic force, and behind that force is technical progress, innovation, new ideas, new products, new technologies, and new methods of managing teams.
Manmohan Singh
In a country where employment opportunities are not growing fast enough, the fear of change tends to be very acute.
Manmohan Singh
I am not very good at statistics. I am also a poor thinker.
Manmohan Singh
If certain facilities, local facilities have to be arranged, the local authorities have to come. And that makes the Indian system slow moving, Indian administrative system slow moving.

My top most priority is to deal with India's massive social and economic problems, so that chronic poverty, ignorance and disease can be conquered in a reasonably short period of time.
