The Poor Group Rising

This shows a trend of emerging South Asia (once called Poor Group). The group consists of politically unstable nations but it is not hindering the technological progress. The youth in these countries have taken the responsibility of technological advancement in their hand, and are actively using Social Networks like Twitter and Facebook. For instance, the youth in Nepal are using Facebook to bring political stability in the nation, by seeking legal help from Supreme Court, in stabilizing the nation. India saw Anti-Corruption Twitter and Facebook movements, in the past few months.

South Asia, with India, is the group of nations having close to half of  World’s population. The group is coming to the Global Economic play with the IT and ITes revolution led by India.
