He is known for being humble. The missile man. I found his three visions veeerrrryyyy wise. #RememberingKalam
1. "From Alexander onwards, the Greeks,the Turks, the MOGULS, the Portuguese,the British, the French,the Dutch, all of them came and looted us, took over what was ours"

His first vision was to be really free. He couldn't say it in simpler words, after mentioning the words "Mughals, British" as Iooters.
Freedom is a word having several meanings. Most of us know the basic ones.
What was the freedom he hinted at?

2. "For fifty years we have been a developing nation. It is time we see ourselves as a developed nation. We are among top five nations of the world in terms of GDP. We have 10 per cent growth rate in most areas"
His second vision was India's Development.

Development he spoke about was already happening under ABV govt back then. It was the confidence,that comes with development,that was lacking. He believed in empowering right people, GIVING CREDIT for one's work & NOT STEALING CREDITS. (Okay, I heard you guys say Swamy

3. "Why is the media here so negative? ..... Hamas had struck. But front page of the newspaper had picture of a Jewish gentleman who in five years had transformed his desert land into an orchid&a granary"
Kalam, who was only always praised by even sold media, spoke against it.

"We have so many amazing success stories but we refuse to acknowledge them. Why?
Look at Dr. Sudarshan,who transferred the tribal village into self-sustaining, self driving unit. There r millions of such achievements but our media is only obsessed in bad news&failures&disasters"

"Why are we so NEGATIVE?"
"Why are we, as a nation so obsessed with foreign things?"
"Why this obsession with everything imported. Do we not realise that self-respect comes with self-reliance?"
The missile man talked so much sense

"Do you have 10 minutes? Allow me to come back with a vengeance. Got 10 minutes for your country?"
What he said & asked then is most relevant now.
"YOU say that our government is inefficient.
You say India is in absolute pits.
YOU say, say and say.
What do YOU do about it?"
