BYE BYE TO BEIJING

It's over to London now. For once even India can look forward to the 30th Olympic Games with hope. One gold and two bronze medals aren't bad all. In fact, that's the best. Beijing has been historic for India.

Chances are, however, that India may go to sleep now and wake up just in time for the London Olympics. "We have just won a bronze, let's think about winning more medals," said B.I. Fernandes, India's Cuban boxing coach.

"In Cuba there is no pause between Games. It goes on." Is that possible in India? Will Abhinav Bindra go right back into his personal shooting range and start preparing for London? Can Sushil Kumar and Jitender Kumar hang up their medals get back into the ring for more?

Both Sushil and Jitender got their medals despite the lack of world-class support. Time to end the whining about infrastructure. Time for everyone to put their heads down and get back to work. "We can win," said boxing bronze medallist and flag-bearer at the closing ceremony Vijender Kumar. He added, "At least this will give us hope." That's the lesson for him from Beijing.

With a little bit of luck, India could have won a few more medals. Gagan Narang, Akhil Kumar or young Saina Nehwal could have won one each. But then, there are no guarantees in sport.

But they are going back richer in experience. And confidence. And wisdom. "We have to start preparing for the Olympics from tomorrow," said Narang, a shooter, who failed to make a mark in all his three events

Nishita Shah, 28, an Indian origin businesswoman from Thailand, golfer Tiger Woods and Elon Musk, co-founder of online payment processor PayPal figure on Forbes' list of next-generation billionaires.

Besides Shah, managing director of Thailand's diversified GP Group, on the list are Hollywood actor Tyler Perry, Kenji Kasahara, creator of Japan's leading portal Mixi, and Michael and Xochi Birch, who started Bebo, a social networking site.

'The world's current crop of billionaires has plenty of money but not much youth,' the US business magazine said, noting the average age of the 1,125 people on Forbes' list of the world's wealthiest is 61.

'The diversity of this group shows you can't predict what industry the next billionaire will come from, but these people also have something in common,' Forbes said. 'Even though they've accumulated more than enough money to retire in luxury, they aren't packing up for the Hamptons.'

Glamorous Nishita Shah is one of the richest people in Thailand because of her stake in her family's sprawling business empire with an estimated net worth at $375 million. When the stunning heiress is not poring over financial reports or gracing the pages of Thai magazines, she's planning her upcoming fashion line, Forbes said.
