You can not generalise the whole India by reading one post. There are many Indians CEO's who are running the big companies and are well qualified.

Generalising the whole culture based on post is not right. You should give some one chance and some Indians are very talented and extremely hard working than anyone else you find.

Every business is gaming system even Amazon is gaming the system.

Its not one post. Indians favour other Indians, to the exclusion of Americans and Europeans in general. I've seen it in IT, in retail, in trucking, in America and in other mass-immigration previously European societies (Australia). Even the largest companies (Infosys) engage in Visa fraud and discrimination:

Indian CEOs and managers are popular with boards because they will often ruthlessly pursue a corporate agenda without a brotherly spirit for (American) coworkers or citizens.

Americans and those descended from Europeans have been living in open, civil societies for thousands of years. Most of the world is not like that - in-group preference and close kinship rules. Outsiders will exploit our societal structure for their benefit, and we need to be at least aware of it, and penalise it as necessary. China's current corporate espionage effort (and the resultant trade war) is another example.

Have you ever been to India? Have you ever travelled anywhere outside of US/Canada/Western Europe?

Perhaps you ought to give it a try. You might be surprised at what you learn.

My mother was there in the 80s (with my father, on a holiday) and complained about being groped and harassed by men, and the poor quality of food and water. No desire to ever visit or to have much to do with the people from there. The Indian men I've met in clubs and bars have been as unwanted as the job applicants.
People said the same thing to me about Morocco. And Cuba. And Bolivia. That I would be harassed by men and get sick from the food & water. Everything I had been told was wrong. They were some of my favorite places to travel because they were so different from anything I had experienced before.
