Indian companies outsourcing to find good help

WSJ profile last week of how, despite millions of graduates every year, India's colleges and universities fail to provide enough qualified workers to meet the growing domestic demand.  One call center provider in Bangalore has actually started shifting operations to the Phillippines and Nicaragua. 

Where does the Indian educational system come up short?  The article raises a number of possibilities, including low pay for teachers, too much bureaucracy, an emphasis on rote learning as opposed to critical thinking, and rampant cheating.  The problem extends to the elementary and secondary schools where over half of the 5th grade students read at the 2nd grade level.
