British Indians ?

As we know, it is very easy to find foreing people living as part of the population of a country all over the world; since times as the colonization in the past, we can find a huge diversity in this globalized world.
But, in this case I have found something really interesting and it is the way that Indian people live in London; they are not guests in this city, they are even considered sometimes as "British Indians", because they contribute to many aspectos of London life.
The South Asian population in the UK is over one and a half million inhabitants, where we can see the majority in the city of London and it is estimated that nearly half of the South Asians in Britain are of Indian descent.

What I would like to express in this blog entry is the huge contribution of Indian population; starting in the 20th century, where there were merchants, doctors, lawyers and students in addition to the sailors and servants that had been in this place since many years ago. Also in the 1920s, wealthy Indians often sent their sons to be educated at British public schools and universities, so they'd became part of the society.

Nowadays, UK politicians say "Britain's future economic success lies on the shoulders of businessmen and businesswomen of Indian descent. We look to Indians to put the 'Great' into Great Britain." They are an important part of this country.
In recent times Indian culture has made a huge impact on the British entertainment industry. This culture has borrowed musical elements from Bollywood films. They are also famous for their restaurants, stores and music in general.


 So, my point is that sometimes we look the minorities in every country as just inmigrants that arrive to find job opportunities and to take benefist of our countries, and we don't see how much they can contribute to our own economy or the potential that they maybe have as the Indian population does in Britain.
