Vijay Khanna: Do not 'Donate' money to the poor.
http://vijaykhanna.blogspot.com/2010/08/do-not-donate-money-to-poor.html
Monday, August 2, 2010. Do not 'Donate' money to the poor.

Basically it is same as what we already know. 'Give a man a fish, and you feed him for a day. Teach him how to fish and you feed him for a lifetime'.

Vijay Khanna: One more perspective
http://vijaykhanna.blogspot.com/2011/01/one-more-perspective.html
Monday, January 17, 2011. Of late have been traveling a lot and meeting new people. Want to share some new perspectives gathered from some good people i met recently. And i feel there is a good amount of truth in it. 1 Humans are basically good, and want to be helpful.
