The surprise is that India's manufacturing revolution is starting at
the high end.

March 7 issue - At a factory in greater Noida, an industrial suburb of
Delhi, workers step through a series of ''air showers" that blast the
grime of one of the world's most polluted cities off their clothes.
Then they pull on white coveralls, white hoods and plastic sandals
before passing through an air lock into the ''clean room" of Moser
Baer, the world's third largest manufacturer of optical media,
including CDs, VCDs and DVDs. Inside, rows of machines silently inject,
coat, harden, finish, flip and label the shining disks, as a few
white-suited workers adjust dials. Clean, quiet, heavily automated and
nearly depopulated, this is the look of a nascent manufacturing
revolution in India.
