re in the midst of an unprecedented crisis; it was time to think big。
買買汗。辛格(Manmohan Singh):我告訴他,我們已經處在崩潰的邊緣,我上任時我們的外匯儲備已經不足10億美元——這大約只相當於兩個星期的進口。情況非常清楚:我們正處在一個空前的危機當中,我們真的需要嚴肅地考慮考慮。
NARRATOR: To the horror of his own political party; the prime minister gave the green light for free…market reform。
旁白:使他自己的政黨感到懼怕的是,總理給自由市場化改革開了綠燈。
P。 CHIDAMBARAM: Well; the rank and file of the party were simply bewildered。 They did resist the kind of changes that we brought about。 But we presented them the hard facts that unless all this was done; the economy would simply collapse。
