Media-evasion games
Top honchos of multinational companies have to learn the James Bond act before they step into India these days. It had happened when Arun Sarin of Vodafone came calling and then it was the turn of IBM chief Sam Palmisano. Their mission — avoid the media which throngs every venue, from the hotel they are staying in, to the places where appointments are lined up. Palmisano's visit this week saw him successfully dodging the media by adopting various tricks — enter and exit via the hotel's service door, travel in vehicles with blacked out windows, and enter and leave minister's offices through backdoors. The media-shyness, some corporate bigwigs point out, is not an attempt to avoid the press but purely to escape the media jostling.
