In the report “Doing Business 2016“, the World Bank ranked India 130 out of 189 when it comes to the ease of doing business, and India ranked 178 when it comes to enforcing those agreements. I well remember when we signed the free trade agreement with Colombia. I was on the international trade committee and I know we had a parallel agreement on environment as you mentioned. My first question is this. Do you agree with the report that those figures are right? How would you see doing free trade with India compared to other emerging markets like China? In your opinion how would you rank that?
