My 20 year old son wants so bad to get a trade and work hard in life...he just hasn't the funds to get there. Working at a fast food place where they are cutting most of the employees hours is getting very depressing for him.

Palki, why do u think it is the way it is? Indians and South Asians have such a bad rep overseas. Dirty, selfish, dishonest, uncivilised behaviour. Not exactly the kind of ppl the rest of the world would like to welcome with open arms.

Good. Don't care. Canadians are not getting hired on jobs and are living on the streets.\nMy government gave millions of grants and loans to foreign students, so schools could stay afloat. It's the biggest scam in Canada history. You can thank Trudeau for lying to these international students.\nCanadians don't have jobs, and we are educated... but a foreign student will be fine after school in my country. Bloody shady Trudeau. Jail him!!!! For life!!!! Lies, lies, lies. Too bad for the students. But the schools made money. Get lost... Trudeau you scammer

A good example of how bad the work ethics with Canadians. They won't even join the military! Easy money right there. So, think about that. Start educating our kids and develop their work ethic. Have kids instead of just having pets! No wonder our population is decreasing!

It's too bad so sad.

It’s getting bad when Primary Care units are no longer accepting new patients. And it’s happening thanks to Trudeau.

How about clear the backlog before cutting the jobs ? Bad management decision.

A sound advice to all Indians who are trying to beat the system. Leave when your permit has expired. It would be easier for you to apply again from India. Being removed may get you banned for any visa again. You have no idea what's coming your way once the Conservative comes in power. And please keep your bad manners to yourself when you come here.

Pretty much all of Canada is like this. If you’re brown they’ll hate you for working hard and making an honest living. Meanwhile the locals will just apply govt benefits and play video games and blame indian immigrants for stealing their jobs, with this kind of hatred and bad attitude. Keep working hard and it’ll pay off Indians !

Visa rejection rate has always been high, the interview process is highly arbitrary. There is no logic to the rejection, it's dependent on on perception of the person interviewing and therefore can be highly biased. It's not right to assume and generalize that Indians are a nation of people where most have bad behaviour - this thought process is itself wrong. As an individual do any of us think that we travel just to indulge in reckless behavior? That is never a first thought - let's not generalize and have a better opinion of fellow citizens. We will be respected by outsiders if we first have respect and a positive opinion as regards each other.

They arent our problem. I dont feel bad.

Oh toooooo bad goodbye

What is the bad and good attitude of indians here in canada?

Wow, who would’ve thought we can actually protect our border. Too bad it took trump threatening our economy to actually do it

Am I supposed to feel bad about this?

Go make your country great again ?‍♂️\nIt's bad in your country ? Make it good.\nEvery country has the opportunity to grow, if their people fight for it.\n\nAmerica isn't the world's safe house. People want everything handed to them...\nNope.

Its because of how most of the indians who visit to western countries (in fact even thailand) behaves. Stealing hotel toiletries, towels arrogant. I heard one tourist yelling at a restaurant in lake district UK as he is a <<caste name>> and won't bow down. Poor intern student english guy didn't get what he meant. Reputation is very bad for most of the countries to be honest.

The app was very bad for our country. No tests. People could come with ‘their kid’ and ‘bags of groceries’ and walk straight in. Furthermore, the security was told to not do their job. Hence, nobody would be there to stop anyone. Does not matter what they’re carrying, they could just walk straight in. Security risk. A huge one. The door was wide open, because Joe wanted it to be. Trump signed the order, and closed the doors. Now they have to do the legitimate process. Not walk straight through. Just look at the statistics. Nobody needs to defend Joe and his now past administration. It lead to very not good things. It is being solved now.

This is what WE voted for!! Its not just trump hes just taking action on what the american people want so you can turn on your best acting skills and use your softest voice but we dont feel bad for people who are taking our jobs ruining our economy and making us poor.

You can tell this channel woukd vote kamala. Making this look sad and bad on trump.

DW is getting to be as bad as CNN. German and Yiddish were my first languages, but thank God I was born in Texas in 1943. I visit Germany quite often. In fact I just returned about a month ago. Germany should worry about their own problems rather than trying to spread hate about Trump.

Don’t feel bad for any of them. They should have return home when he won.. Every country protects their borders, so there is nothing wrong with US protecting theirs.

I feel bad for them but if they had entered the country legally they wouldn't have that problem

Mexico doesn’t have the obligation to help them neither. In all honesty, if you have a decent job, Mexico really isn’t that bad of a country to live in. It’s developing pretty fast.

I felt bad for him. He is earning HALAL but why this kind of behavior by the customer? \nIt’s not good!\nSo much love from Pakistan♥️??

Markets keeps on crashing. FII keep on selling. Rupee all time low. GDP growth prediction low. Companies coming with bad results. Inflation all time high. On top tax on tax . Complicated gst . They screwed indian stock market by doubling stt and increasing tax on profit from risk asset of stock marktet. What govt is doing?

No one feels bad anymore ?

Too bad

sorry but if those people see how bad the US really is, they will not make that journey... who ever fed the promise to them dont picture the real situation on the ground.

The United state's Marshall's office and ice federal agents and state and local authorities and interpol I'm telling you it's over it's over and you illegal immigrants don't want the United States military to get involved believe me you don't want to United States military involved you have been warned stay out of the United States illegally or it's going to go bad for you

All Indians should thank those Indian descendants who are behaving badly in foreign countries. I mean I could name a few Rishi Sunak, Vivek Ramaswamy and Kash Patel the list could go on and on. As an American with an Asian heritage many I saw many of my Indian American friends voting for Trump well since I voted for Kamala just remember Indians just because you’re supporting these guys doesn’t mean that they accept you in their team. I am guessing Karma is real ????

It is not attractive at all. Taxes are too high, language barrier is a big problem. Germans are not happy to speak english, if they do they will make you feel it and treat you unfair in government offices. I have a bad experience of being here and planning to move out...

As an Indian, i get angry to see illegal immigrants from bangladesh and low tier countries around us destroying my nation with no ethics and they protest badly destroying public property because they don't care about the foreign nation and spitting gutkha on road..., i can understand what it feels for USA too , i am eager to see what US government will do to stop them

Please stop criticizing every ranking, every index. Look at the amount of Indian illegal immigrants almost everywhere. UK reported 1lac of them in 2024. Why do you think any country wants this!! I mean Indians are ok to die and enter other countries illegally, drive cabs, become cleaners, earn below minimum wage than to live in India. Look at the people quitting Indian citizenship every year. Pls Palki, don't make it seem that India is amazing and all is the conspiracy of the West. High networth ppl have left India. Take some ownership. Criticism of your country for good doesn't make you bad. Waise bhi GDP me top bhi ho jaae aur per capita income low rahe toh koi danka nhi baj rha hai desh ka..

India has a bad reputation of being full of obnoxious scammers. High trust societies do not appreciate being taken advantage of repeatedly...but that will hopefully change as the attitudes towards mass migration change. As the saying goes, fool us once, shame on you...fool us twice, shame on us.

?.... after one year Canada census show Toronto and surrounding boundaries gain over 3 million people, the # 1 influx of people in all of North America.\nSo let me get this straight your view of Toronto is different from millions and they're still coming?\nHow I gauge if Toronto is changing for the bad is simple.\nI walked a two mile radius of my home and what I see is improvement after improvement. And if I see dumping for example I call 311 and within 48 hours it's gone.\nOne thing I find very odd...for a country and city where cost of living the highest ever....why is everyone spending money improving their property...none are rundown.

You think it's bad in Canada. New Zealand is a lot smaller then Canada, and so the Indians stand out even more, just look at all our fast food restaurants, service stations, corner stores every business you can think of they own it. NZ some days looks like India. We have a lot of tourists who get mad because they come here to NZers, but instead see indians

I’m not Indian National however I feel proud that this nation has build ‘herself’ as the 5th largest global economy and if some of the following ways are adapted by Indian Gov, the Indian passport will be saluted.\n1) Make your currency strong as in Raja Ranjeet Singh’s time 1 Indian puree was ten (£10) British Pounds, today it’s 100 Rupee to £1.\n2) Need to hold educational tests for everyone going abroad with a minimum level of English language.\n3) Emphasis on etiquettes and local Knowledge of the country where the traveller wants to visit.\n4) Stop all of illegal immigration via people smuggling agents as this gives a bad name to the country.\n5) Set a minimum benchmark amount of funds required before applying for an overseas visa.\n6) Make it mandatory for all travellers to have a full fare return ticket (12 months validity) on them at all times to show strong ties to return back home after trip.\n7) Create strong religious tolerance and harmony within the country so the world can see no religious discrimination being reported on international media worldwide.\n8) The Indian embassies all around the world should be aware and weary of each Indian national traveling abroad in real time so they f any help is require they can assist 24/7 without failure.\nThese are some of my points and opinions for a better India.\nI hope the people who read above will not be offended by any of my opinions as this is not my intention and I am well wisher and want to see this nation thrive, always.\nGood luck and all the best…

Well, there are good Indians and scammers Indian. Scammers in India are causing headaches for good Indians. That is the facts. For instance, recently some Indians took a huge loan in UAE and left for Canada with that money. That has put the UAE government in a position to make the visa process more difficult to find out if bad people are getting the visa or not. I would say, the Indian government should introduce a process to thoroughly investigate a person before they apply for a foreign visa, and it should be honest to see some improvement in Indian behavior in the foreign countries. If not, that number is just going to go down. It doesn’t matter how much you scream. Do that for the sake of good Indian people.

the likes of Palki and so called other journalist is if something bad happens to Indians the other party is racist but if something bad happens to people in China, Nepal, Bangladesh etc the reason is those countries citizens. They have made millions pandering lies and will continue to do so. Where is herviswaguru and welcome for indians speech in Oxford now.\n\nAs they say you dont have to go to war to destroy a nation but just inbibe in their mind falsehood and they will themselves take the plunge to hell.

She always tries to sound like there is an agenda against India. Check timestamp 3:07. There is no agenda, let me explain why.\nThe rejection rate is a better measure than rejection numbers or visa fees. And I'm pretty sure that India has a lower rejection rate compared to many other countries. It is the sheer volume of applications that contribute to this. Even 1% rejection on 100k Indian visas is a 1000 rejected visas. While a less populous country may have 10% rejection out of 1000 visas which is 100 rejections. So, in % terms, India fare well despite having higher rejections.\nFiring shots at Kosovo, Cuba and B Faso is a cheap shot and unnecessary to push the point of passport rank. All countries have a right to determine who they allow into their country with lower restrictions. And they are under no obligation to open the gates to anyone. It is also common knowledge that the newer cohorts of Indian immigrants to the West are a bad representation of Indian society (best example - Canada). Hence the rising anti Indian Immigration stance. Immigration is a privilege and not a right. I hope that the Indian community understands that the visa rejections are a lesson and not an insult, and that they learn from this and become better ambassadors when they go overseas.

We r just too messy, noisy and behavior is plain bad..we have no consideration for personal space of others and constantly bump others with our bulging stomachs...long way to go to feel welcomed by the world.

I watch your channel and agree with most of your videos, but this one gives a false idea to viewers. Losing millions of dollars isn’t because countries reject visas unfairly—it's because applicants often fail to submit legitimate travel intentions, provide dodgy documents, lack sufficient funds, or have a bad travel history. If you fulfill all the required documents and meet the criteria, I don't think there will be any visa rejections. Also, the Henley Passport Index is based on IATA data and is updated quarterly. It ranks passports by visa-free access, not by a country’s economic size—so being the 5th largest economy doesn’t automatically mean better rankings.

Why does not she say that it's our behavior that is causing this, all arrogant indian around the world has created a very bad picture of India, this includes Paalki as well. I though she was a new reporter didn't know she was a fake one.!!

Stay in India with your bad behavior and practice birth control. They are rude and rac!st and don't respect the culture of the countries they go to being so loud in their own celebrations disturbing the whole neighborhood. And they commit too much fraud to get into people's countries.

The international companies I believe learn the hard way lesson by hiring low quality cheap manpower which badly ruined their corporate reputation due to low standards services & products produced. Boing is one example which lost its long earned reputation on quality in just few years.

The reason is that some Indian finds it difficult to integrates.\n\n I know one Indian lady that have lived in one country for over 20 years and the lady cannot speak the language of that country. What a shame! \n\nSecondly, many of them like to dominate or discriminate against other people. It has been alleged that some Indian people discriminate against others in many places they work. For instance! Where their people are in charge in Canada, they will not offer jobs to none Indian. They preferred to give the job to an illegal immigrants from india than to give it to someone else who has complete paper work. \nThe video is on YouTube. \n\nIllegal immigrants from India protest boldly in Canada asking government to give them papers but reserve is the case in India. If an illegal immigrants is found anywhere in India, the name of that person is sorry. Too many foreigners are in India prisons for minor offence or immigration matters. I can go on and and on. \n\nVisa rejection is not a bad thing!!! Everyone must protest his or her own. \n \n\nIf it is possible, everyone should stay in their own country. No movement. Do business with your own people. No international business!!! \n\nOur ancestors survived without others, therefore we can survive too. \n\nI know many people will not like this comment but it is an opinion. \n\nI still like India but will not live there. Good luck to them. \n\n\nIn my view their ascent contributes to numerous visa denials. Let's say 10% . Then 30% is forgery. It has been alleged that some of them do too many documents forgery to get to Canada or whereever they wish to travel.\n Then \n10% is women maltreatment. (stories of rape etc). \n\n Finally, india is very big, they need to use their population as a tool for development. They have all it takes to be like China. 100%\n\nWake up Indian government. Look after your citizens or divide the damn country. It is too big. ?

A lot of Indians treat white people really badly. Especially when there is money involved. It’s now extremely common that people here hate dealing with Indians as customers of their business and will go as far as avoid it altogether. They will often relentlessly try to negotiate services, lie and say anything to get get their way, pester businesses until they cave to their demands and even leave bad reviews which they say they will change if you give them a good deal. None of this is the way things are done in Canada and that needs to be respected. Something kind of funny, I’ve heard many people say that Indians will often say they will refer tons of friends and family to a business if you give them an unreasonable discount (which they never do once they’ve gotten what they want), but what they don’t realize is that referring a bunch more Indians to them is the last thing that business wants. And really, some of the discounts they want on things are just ridiculous. When I was selling my car a few years ago, I had it listed for $55,000 and I got bombarded by Indians offering $20,000-$25,000 and every lie under the sun of why that’s all it was worth, other people are saying yes to offers like that for the same car, dealerships are selling them for that much and so on. Like come on. And I guess while I’m at it, I hate to say but it’s a common thing here to walk into a gas station and the smell of body odour just hits you like a brick. I’ve stopped going to 3 different stations because of it. I’m sure there’s some pungent white people out there but damn. This is on a whole other level. It literally fills the entire building.

Most of it is due to bad so called visa expert agents in India. They haven’t even been to Nepal and they help educated people fill their visa applications for western countries. The day people start doing their own applications with honesty the rejection rate will start to drop. I have seen my own friends granted US visas when they only had 2000 rupees in their bank account only because they were honest. Last year I did my dad UK visa and when the asked his monthly income I wrote 0 and he still got approved. Don’t fall for the trap guys.

Please! Stop all this bla bla India is the best business. Every country has its good and bad. It’s just some Indians like you think Indians are so special that the planet earth cannot sustain its self without you. Like you don’t want certain people in your country, other countries don’t want you - simple as that!
