However i doubt this be sooner than later, because the mentality of majority people could slow the process and i worry the infra, quality of living, water, food and air and weather could be something it will take me years to get used to or maybe not, also i dont think my body has defense againt illness as someone native to india would be.
Our thought process is not same although i am Indian decent by i grew up in overseas all my life. I never been to INDIA, i am 35 year old, We lived all our lives in Singapore, Malaysia, and UK and Europe mostly and my family living in Europe. For me to adapt to live in Chennai compared to the places i am living now is scary. Travelling is different to migration!! My parents dont get it, they my parents they seems fine with it. I dont think i be able to find a high paying job as i have at the moment, starting a business would be the way forward, but i need to study how it works there, the worst is i am afraid my expectations are too high. I can only know more when i visit the place one day sooner than later.
My parents has history of medical conditions such heart problems, hip problems, and eye sight issues due to old age. I am not sure what and honest medical treatment can they get from private institution. How honest are Indians in Chennai, can i trust them?
Anyway has comment on all the above, please drop me an e-mail at renomurah@gmail.com. Much appreciated.

Hi this is abhijit the student of sunbeam school which is one of the best school in Chennai http://www.sunbeamchennai.org/ and it is very cost effective
I am from Bangladesh. I would like to come Chennai for my parents treatment. Will you suggest me please what would be better for me, taking Apartments for 15 days or staying in medium category hotels? I have to save my money. What would be my estimated living and food cost if stay in hotel and take food from restaurant ( obviously cost minimization is important) or rented an apartment for 15 days and cook by ourselves? We are three members.
Please provide me the information.
Thanks in Advance.
Regards,
Sajib
