This talk highlights some major issues, and selected comparative popular social and political cultural features of Indian work and job ethic values, practices and "creative practicalities." A plea is made to conduct creative researches (especially social-moral, linguistic and political cultural) on and for 21st century India, where such transnational comparisons, as with US and China, are necessary and instructive.
