I love India!

While doing some extra-curricular reading on the suggestion by my supervisor, I came across an article in the 'Sci Tech' section of an Indian newspaper called The Hindu on hand water pumps for rural villages. I would like to highlight the following quote from the article:

"Gender friendly
The treadle pump is also gender friendly as both men and women can easily operate it unlike certain agricultural operations such as tractor which require men to drive them."

Besides the poor grammar, I don't think you would find a statement like that in a Canadian newspaper.
