# The Global Intelligence Files

On Monday February 27th, 2012, WikiLeaks began publishing The Global Intelligence Files, over five million e-mails from the Texas headquartered "global intelligence" company Stratfor. The e-mails date between July 2004 and late December 2011. They reveal the inner workings of a company that fronts as an intelligence publisher, but provides confidential intelligence services to large corporations, such as Bhopal's Dow Chemical Co., Lockheed Martin, Northrop Grumman, Raytheon and government agencies, including the US Department of Homeland Security, the US Marines and the US Defence Intelligence Agency. The emails show Stratfor's web of informers, pay-off structure, payment laundering techniques and psychological methods.

Decision on FDI in multi-brand retail soon: Scindia
May 18, 2011; The Economic Times

NEW DELHI: The government is expected to take a decision in the next three
months on allowing foreign direct investment in multi-brand retail, a long
pending issue,
A new National Manufacturing Policy creating an investor friendly
environment is also likely, Minister of State for Commerce and Industry
Jyotiraditya Scindia said today.
"We are committed to the issue on FDI in retail...I think over the next
quarter you will see a decision and an announcement on both the issues,"
Scindia said at Export Promotion Council for EOUs and SEZs award function
here.
A cabinet note on FDI in multi-brand retail has already been circulated by
the Department of Industrial Policy and Promotion (DIPP), which had
earlier come out with a discussion paper on the politically sensitive
issue.
According to sources, the government would allow the foreign retail giants
with riders which include a minimum investment of USD 100 million, half of
which must go to the back-end infrastructure like cold storage, soil
testing labs and seed farming.
At present, India allows FDI only in single brand retail chains like Nike
, Louis Vuitton with a cap of 51 per cent. It also permits 100 per cent
overseas investment in wholesale cash-and-carry format.
Several of the big chains like Wal-Mart and Carrefour have set up their
joint ventures in India, waiting for their full-scale entry into the
multi-brand retailing.
The proposed manufacturing policy aims to help attract overseas
investments besides increasing the share of manufacturing in the economy.
India aims at increasing the share of manufacturing sector, which
contributes over 80 per cent in the country''s overall industrial
production, from 16-17 per cent to 25-26 per cent of the gross domestic
product by 2020.
On concerns over imposition of minimum alternative tax on special economic
zones, Scindia said: "We are in discussion with the finance ministry. We
hope to have a sympathetic hearing, so that we can ensure that there is a
stable policy regime going forward".
On the exporters demand for the continuation of tax benefit scheme -DEPB,
he said "we will ensure that...exporters are incentivised to be able to
reach our target of USD 500 billion by 2013-14".
The Duty Entitlement Pass Book (DEPB) scheme for exporters would end on
June 30.
